Smith Reservoir - San Luis Valley Ranches

Imagine owning your own recreation property or residence within a half mile of a beautiful reservoir with a 14,300-foot snow-capped mountain backdrop.

The Smith Reservoir, just south of the Town of Blanca, adjoins a subdevelopment called the San Luis Valley Ranches. It is made up of 5-acre parcels of land zoned for residential use.

The reservoir holds water for use on the local farms. It is also a recreation site used extensively for fishing and camping during the summer months.
