Crystal Lakes Subdivision in Red Feather Lakes, CO is SOMEWHERE!

Crystal Lakes Subdivision in Red Feather Lakes, CO is SOMEWHERE!

Wednesday was the appraisal deadline for a cabin I had listed in the Crystal Lakes Subdivision and they missed it. Apparently the AMC contacted several appraisers who turned down the assignment.

(In a way, that's a good thing. I've complained loudly about geographic competency in the past and if an appraiser is not familiar with the area, they should not attempt to appraise property here).

The appraisal delay, it seems, was due to the fact that the "PROPERTY IS IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE"!

.....

I was good with it up to that point, but when I heard "in the middle of nowhere", I got a little cranky.

I believe Crystal Lakes is SOMEWHERE....

SOMEWHERE pretty special, in fact.

Crystal Lakes is a mountain subdivision near the Village of Red Feather Lakes, approximately 50 miles Northwest of Fort Collins, Colorado.

Property owners enjoy their mountain lifestyle; gorgeous terrain, abundant wildlife, privacy and the serenity of their mountain homes, cabins or camp sites. They enjoy fishing, hiking, mountain biking, riding ATVs, cross country skiing in winter, and a variety of other outdoor activities. To preserve the environment and serenity only electric motors are allowed on the lake.

All outdoor activities aside, I suspect many just enjoy being SOMEWHERE so beautiful.

Property owners might even get that easy, peaceful feeling of being in "the middle of nowhere" while sitting on their deck, walking in the forest or fishing on the lake and streams in the subdivision.....

But all of us know that we're really not "in the middle of nowhere" at all!

There actually is town named NOWHERE in unincorporated Caddo County in Oklahoma, zip code 73038.

Clearly, NOWHERE, OK is nowhere near the Crystal Lakes Subdivision in Red Feather Lakes, Colorado!
