A real estate and hospitality property developer based in Scottsdale, Arizona is in the early stages of a plan that may see the construction of nearly 700 residential units in northern Colorado.
The Discovery Land Company has said that it wants to build what is being called the Stagecoach Mountain Ranch on a vast site of nearly 6,700 acres near the city of Steamboat Springs.
The big project appears to be coming easily for a company that thinks big: Discovery is the developer of the Yellowstone Club near Big Sky, Montana, an exclusive private and golf community encompassing some 2,900 acres.
The Stagecoach Mountain Ranch, which is Discovery’s first venture in the Centennial State, will include both private ski and golf acreage.
As planned, the project will go up just to the south of the Stagecoach Reservoir, which itself is 20 miles south of Steamboat Springs.
A preliminary subdivision plan for what is being described as a “super luxury resort” is expected to be submitted to Rhoutt County offices sometime this month.
Launched in 1994, Discovery specializes in the development of large and exclusive properties. Those properties, notes the newspaper Yampa Valley Bugle, are stretched across the globe, “catering to the ultra-wealthy.”
