McPhee Reservoir sits just outside the town of Dolores, surrounded by pinyon, juniper and ponderosa pine, with the San Juan Mountains on the skyline. The Dolores River flows through town below the dam, and the Boggy Draw trail system is close by.

Check whether the property sits in a mapped floodplain and how the riverbank has behaved over time.

Clarify what river frontage and access come with the property — and what doesn't.
Seasonal roads
Ask how roads near the reservoir and forest are maintained in winter.
Wildfire readiness
Look at defensible space and forest around the home, and confirm insurance early.
