What was once wide-open ranchland on a high plateau paralleling the main road into Aspen has been developed into one of the most magnificent and prestigious residential areas just west of the city. McClain Flats is big sky country with views of the Elk Mountain Range as far as the eye can see. Home sites with generous acreage and large houses, many with extensive pastures, comprise subdivisions such as Star Mesa, White Horse Springs and White Star Ranch. These are impeccably manicured properties that have retained the pastoral quality of former agricultural land. Horses grazing on McClain Flats are a common sight.
Approximately ten minutes to Aspen driving east and ten minutes to Woody Creek going west, the location of McClain Flats is ideal for accessing outdoor activities and city amenities. Hiking, fishing, biking, snowshoeing, horseback riding and viewing starry nights are close at hand, as is all that Aspen has to offer.
