80-Acre Wyoming Retreat Near Alcova & Pathfinder Reservoirs | Home, Bunkhouse & Shop
The Property:United Country Real Estate | Zarello Land & Legacy presents Oregon Trail Retreat-an 80-acre Wyoming property offering privacy, recreation access, and a rare connection to the historic American West.
Located approximately 75 miles southwest of Casper with access off Highway 220, this property sits in close proximity to Alcova and Pathfinder Reservoirs and is surrounded by expansive BLM lands, making it well suited for those seeking a private retreat, hunting and fishing basecamp, or a legacy property in one of Wyoming’s most recreation-rich areas.
At the center of the property is a 5,599 sq ft custom-built home designed for comfort, gathering, and extended stays. With 5 bedrooms and 2.75 bathrooms, the layout supports everything from family use to hosting larger groups. Large windows and open living spaces capture the surrounding landscape and natural light throughout the home.
The Bunkhouse:A 1,500 sq ft bunkhouse duplex, complete with two bathrooms and loft spaces, provides additional flexibility for guests or potential seasonal rental use, offering separation from the main residence while maintaining privacy across the property.
The Shop Space:Additional improvements include a 1,500 sq ft shop for equipment, storage, or projects, along with a 750 sq ft attached garage for vehicles and recreational gear.
The property is supported by a private well, propane utilities, and a whole-home 22kw Generac backup system, allowing for reliable, year-round use.
The Recreation:Outdoor recreation is a defining feature of this location. The surrounding area supports hunting, fishing, and year-round exploration, with nearby access to Alcova Reservoir, Pathfinder Reservoir, and the Sweetwater and North Platte Rivers. Wildlife including deer, antelope, and upland game birds are commonly found in the area.
The History:The property is also crossed by the historic Oregon Trail and Pony Express routes, adding a unique layer of historical significance that is difficult to replicate.
Whether used as a private Wyoming retreat, recreation property, or long-term hold, Oregon Trail Retreat offers a combination of land, improvements, and location that is increasingly hard to find in this region.
