With an incredibly convenient location at the intersection of Highway 149 and Highway 160 and the confluence of the Rio Grande and South Fork rivers, the town of South Fork, Colorado, is a great place to buy a home south of Creede. Founded in 1882, this charming community was featured in National Lampoon’s Vacation as a stop made by Clark Griswold, played by Chevy Chase. However, it wasn’t until 1992 that South Fork was incorporated, and in the years since, it has experienced steady growth and established a name for itself as an outdoor adventure destination.
At an elevation of just over eight thousand two hundred feet, South Fork is home to roughly four hundred and twenty-five residents. Situated just before Wolf Creek Pass, the town operates as a gateway to the Southwest, roughly one hour east of Pagosa Springs. The original inhabitants of the area were the Utes, but in the 1840s, they were relocated. Shortly after, South Fork became somewhat of an agricultural community, with vegetable farming, sawmills, sheep and cattle ranching. Today this Rio Grande County community remains a hub for agriculture, as well as outdoor recreation and tourism. Specific attractions in the South Fork area include Silver Thread Byway, Wolf Creek Ski Area, Rio Grande National Forest, miles of hiking trails, and a wide variety of restaurants. Similarly, a few of the locals’ favorite dining destinations include Tiny Timbers Resort and Coffee Bistro, Rachel’s Keep on Keepin’ On, and Ramon’s Mexican Restaurant.
