AT A GLANCE 533 N LEFT FORK HOBBLE CREEK CANYON SPRINGVILLE, UT

Hobble Creek Ranch is one of the most magnificent properties in the American West. It offers a truly unique proposition - a stunning estate home with a backyard playground extending over 3,387 acres (over 4.5 miles wide) of spectacular recreational lands. The property has substantial water rights with seven ponds and it controls access to over ten thousand acres of forest service lands. The ranch varies in elevation from 5,700 feet to over 9,100 feet and has extensive roads and trails that provide access throughout the property. Hobble Creek Ranch is ideally suited for cattle and horses, while the big game elk and deer hunting opportunities are incredible.

The home is securely positioned behind two gates and is surrounded by nearly twenty beautifully manicured acres. Every element of the home was built to the highest standards, and the finish-work and detail are unrivaled. The location is really special. You feel like you are miles and miles away from anyone, yet there is a golf course ten minutes away and a grocery store fifteen minutes away. Hobble Creek Ranch is situated at the end of a paved road in Hobble Creek Canyon, which is about an hour from Salt Lake City and Park City, and about thirty minutes from a private airport.

THE EXQUISITE LIVING The main residence is a French-inspired chateau surrounded by twenty beautifully manicured acres. Securely positioned behind two locked gates, guests are treated with majestic views of towering alpine peaks as they travel up the long meandering driveway that takes you past ponds, streams and large mature trees. A gorgeous nineteenthcentury fountain sits in front of the home.

The residence includes seven bedrooms, ten bathrooms, formal living and dining rooms, a gourmet kitchen, an exquisite office, a theater room, multiple entertainment spaces, an exercise room and elevator. It also has an attached three-car garage. No expense was spared in the design and craftsmanship, and the attention to detail can be seen throughout the estate.

S IT T IN G RO O M Located just off the entry is a sitting room designed for intimate conversations while entertaining. This space was also built as a music room where you can relax around the fireplace while listening to someone play the piano. On the other end of the room, there is a small library where you can curl up on the sofa with a good book and read.

L IV IN G RO O M The living room is a wonderful example of the French influences in the design of the home: soft light colors, luxurious furnishings, a two-story fireplace with a finely-crafted mantle and moldings, two stunning chandeliers along with large windows and French doors that open to a deck and provide commanding views of the grounds and mountains in the distance.

25

P RIMARY BED RO O M The master suite is the perfect pairing of luxury and comfort. At the entrance to the room is a sitting area with a gorgeous fireplace.

The master bathroom is designed to pamper.

Rich wood cabinets contrast perfectly with the marble floors and fine moldings. A large soaker tub is anchored between two pillars and surrounded by windows while the shower rivals anything found in the finest spas around the world.

inspiration, the room has access to a private outside courtyard.

UPSTAIR S BED RO O MS On the second floor of the home are five bedrooms, four of which are en suite. All of the bedrooms take advantage of the views and while each room is decorated differently, they all have the same level of finish work and attention to detail. Whether they are used by family or guests, they are all positioned to provide the utmost in privacy.

B ASE ME N T The basement is made for entertaining and fun. It features an open-concept plan anchored by a huge great room and a seventeen-seat theater area. There are game spaces on both sides of the theater room ideal for card games or even early morning yoga. There is also a pool table and sitting room, a full kitchen with Heartland appliances and bar seating, a bedroom, a safe room, a full gym and exercise room and a spa with a larger shower and sauna. Because it is a walkout basement, it affords easy access to the backyard as well as the stairs leading up to the deck on the main level.

I NDOOR PO O L AN D PO O L H O U S E The indoor swimming pool is a stand-alone structure located next to the main residence. The building is approximately 3,150 square feet with the exterior walls lined with windows or French doors. The pool house features a full kitchen and bathroom as well as plenty of room to lounge on the pool deck. There is a diving board on one end and a shallow area for kids on the other end. When you need to relax, there is a circular hot tub that sits up above the pool.

30

GUEST HOUSE The guest house is located above the detached four-car garage. The guest house is approximately 2,500 square feet and features two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a full kitchen and a family room with a fireplace. This is the perfect space if you have long-term guests or if you want to host a family in their own private home. It is built to the same standards as the main residence.

31

32

THE G RO U N DS There are approximately 20 acres of manicured grounds surrounding the home. It is a private sanctuary nestled within the massive size of the 3,387-acre ranch. Within the walls of the entry gate is a beautiful pond fed by Hobble Creek.

From here you have the choice of going through a second gate that allows you access to the private lane that leads up to the house or you can go through a side gate that has a road that takes you straight up to the upper garages and ranch amenities.

There is a high elk fence that lines the perimeter of the grounds and helps keep the wildlife off of the lawns and planting areas. There are a number of sitting areas and bronze statues placed throughout the grounds. Some of these can be seen as you drive up the lane and others are located behind the home. About one hundred yards below the home is a second pond with a fountain and a beautiful water feature that flows down from the home to the pond. A tennis court is conveniently located in the backyard behind the pool house. The extensive water rights along with a full irrigation system make it possible to keep the grounds lush and green throughout the spring, summer and fall seasons.

RAN CH AM EN I TI ES A recreational paradise like this requires toys and equipment to fully utilize and enjoy the property. That means you need lots of garage and storage space. One of the prized amenities is the gigantic 11-bay garage. There is also a 400-foot steel and metal hay and tractor storage structure, as well as a 200-foot horse shelter.

ADDITION AL STR U C T U RE S There is potential to build additional structures on the property. The ranch falls within the jurisdiction of Utah County and any building permits would need to be through them.

Currently there is an existing caretaker’s home located near the upper garages. Near the main entry gate is an old cabin that could be taken down and a new home could potentially be built there. The ranch also strategically purchased several lots within the neighboring Upper Whittemore development. These lots were purchased as a buffer to maintain privacy, but a future owner could build cabins on them. Please contact the listing agent with additional building questions.

T HE HAYF I ELDS The flat hayfields are an iconic landmark when you look at an aerial map of the ranch.

They encompass approximately 200 acres.

There are two pivots that irrigate the fields.

They get one cut of grass hay and then let the cattle feed in here during the fall. Because of the abundant feed, the elk and deer love these fields and the hayfields become a prime wildlife viewing area in the fall.

T HE LAN D The lands of the Hobble Creek Ranch encompass approximately 3,387 acres. The ranch borders the Uinta National Forest and has direct access to over 10,000 acres of forest service lands. The western edge to the eastern edge of the ranch is approximately 4.7 miles wide. The elevation ranges from 5,700 feet to 9,163 feet.

T HE PONDS There are seven ponds on the ranch. Two of the ponds are located within the landscaped grounds surrounding the residence. The other five ponds are spread out within a mile of the hayfields. The largest pond is called Bridge Pond and it is approximately four acres in size. It is an ideal recreational pond stocked with large trout and perfect for canoes and paddle boats. Berryport Pond is around two and a half acres and is located just above the horse facilities at the mouth of Berryport Canyon. There are two small ponds situated up a small canyon above Bridge Pond. The seventh pond is located in Packard Canyon. It is in a beautiful setting surrounded by large mature trees with dramatic views.

DRY CANYON Dry Canyon is one of the favorite canyons for riding four wheelers and horses. It is a dramatic canyon with thick vegetation. The trail starts behind the main residence at approximately 5,850 feet in elevation. It then winds around and rises nearly two-thousand feet higher. For the adventurous soul, you can ride four wheelers to the end of the trail and then hike up to the top of Bald Knoll, which is the highest point on the ranch at 9,163 feet in elevation.

BERRYPORT C A N YO N

B E R RYPORT CAN YON Berryport Canyon extends approximately 1.7 miles from the Berryport Pond to the north end of the ranch. There is a well-groomed trail ideal for four wheelers but large enough for a side-by-side. It is a wonderful leisurely trail rising only about 500 feet in elevation. Large mature trees line the majority of the stream bed and the many side canyons are perfect for short hikes. This is also a great canyon for mountain bikes.

PAC K A RD CA N YON Packard Canyon is a narrower canyon with more dramatic terrain. It is located near the eastern portion of the ranch and from the entrance you can look down into the main Hobble Creek Canyon. Not far from the mouth of the canyon is a lovely pond surrounded by beautiful trees. Near the northern boundary of the ranch, the road splits and you can continue into forest service lands or you can take a trail that winds back around the mountain to reveal commanding views of the entire ranch. It’s a really fun ride on a four wheeler.

WHITTEMORE C A N YO N

W HITTEM O R E CAN YON Whittemore Canyon is on the extreme western edge of the property. This is a high alpine canyon that leads up to the base of the towering Freedom Peak, 10,801 feet in elevation. If you like adventure, you can hike back into this area from the end of the Dry Canyon trail. The easier option is to drive around into the neighboring Upper Whittemore cabin development where dirt roads lead back to the lots owned by Hobble Creek Ranch and provide a more convenient starting location for a hike.

63

E LK The Hobble Creek Ranch is home to a large resident elk and deer herd. In fact, this area is renowned for the huge mature bull elk. Because the ranch is situated below thousands of acres of the Uinta National Forest, the elk and deer often travel in the fall through the forest service lands and onto the ranch. This area is part of the Wasatch Unit, which is a draw unit for elk hunting.

CATTLE The ranch has historically ran several hundred head of cattle. The cattle help preserve the Old West feel of the land while also allowing it to qualify for the Green Belt for tax purposes.

FA L L O N THE RANCH Fall is a beautiful time on the Hobble Creek Ranch.

Temperatures cool down, the colors of the trees are vibrant, the wildlife become more active and the elk start to bugle. It is an ideal time to ride four wheelers or go for a hike and be close to the natural world. Every side canyon and trail offer a new adventure. If you are really looking for fun you can even pitch a tent by Bridge Pond or up on in the higher country and spend a night watching the stars.

70

71

WINTER ON THE RANCH SNOW M O BI LI N G Snowmobiling is one of the favorite winter activities on the ranch. For younger and less experienced riders the large hayfields are a great place to ride.

For the more adventurous, the numerous canyons on the ranch can take riders back into the forest service lands where you can go for miles.

BACKC O U N TRY SK IIN G Backcountry skiing is a fun way to experience the upper portions of the ranch. The best way to access the higher elevations is via a snowmobile or side by side with tracks on the snow-covered roads in the neighboring Upper Whittemore development.

This will take you along the southwestern edge of the property. From there you can hike up into the backcountry. It’s a spectacular experience where you are rewarded with dramatic views in every direction.

THE TRAILS All of these trails are accessible via a four wheel drive.

They are fun recreational areas and you don’t have to trailer a vehicle anywhere as you can go directly from the property. There are miles of trails on the ranch perfect for short ATV rides or spending all day exploring the land.

This trail can get you from Hobble Creek Canyon over to Provo Canyon. This is a fun ride that is really beautiful.

If you go down the canyon a few miles from the gate to the ranch there is a road on the west side of the canyon road that will take you to Bartholomew Canyon. This is a short ride that will take you up into the higher country where you can hike.

This trail makes a loop up the Left Fork of Hobble Creek Canyon and over to the Right Fork of Hobble Creek Canyon. You can go either direction. The upper part is all dirt road and it takes you through some beautiful scenery.

As you go up the Left Fork you can take this trail to get over to Daniels Summit where you can have lunch at the Daniels Summit Lodge near Strawberry Reservoir.

Locals love taking this trail every fall to enjoy the beauty of the leaves.
