Custer County

Custer County, Colorado – Rugged Beauty. Real Freedom.
Custer County is Colorado mountain living at its purest—where stunning views, wide open land, and minimal restrictions create the ultimate setting for those seeking space, self-sufficiency, and a slower pace of life. Tucked in the Wet Mountain Valley at the base of the towering Sangre de Cristo Mountains, this region is a magnet for homesteaders, outdoor lovers, and anyone drawn to the unmatched beauty of Southern Colorado.
The towns of Westcliffe and Silver Cliff serve as the heart of the county, offering small-town charm, essential services, and a strong sense of community. But it’s the surrounding landscape that sets Custer County apart: panoramic mountain views in every direction, abundant wildlife, and a landscape that invites adventure—whether it’s hiking, horseback riding, camping, or stargazing under some of the darkest skies in North America.
Custer County gives property owners more freedom than most places in Colorado. Whether you’re dreaming of a remote cabin, a custom home, or a self-sustaining off-grid lifestyle, the land here invites you to do it your way.
Custer County isn’t for everyone—and that’s exactly why it’s special. For those looking to live deliberately, embrace nature, and build a life on their own terms, this is the place.
