Have you ever dreamed of owning your OWN town? Thanks to a generous Craiglist-er, your dream may soon become a reality, as the small Adams County ghost town of Cabin Creek is now on the market for a (surprisingly affordable) cost of $350,000.

As per the listing: Have a huge family? Want to start a business? Need a huge shop? Racing Fans? Fix and flip? Just want acreage out of town? Own it all. Just under 5 acres of property with the old Gas Station, 8 room Motel, Road Side Restaurant Cafe, 8 space RV Park, 2 Houses, and private shooting range. You will have over 500ft of Highway 36 frontage with 4 driveway entrances to draw in Customers. The traffic going out to High Plains Raceway on the weekends could be huge $$. All paved highway to the property, easy 45min commute to Denver and only 10 minutes from Byers/I-70 exit. Most neighbors are hundreds of acres away. Property is in Adams County.

Before even seeing the pictures of this small ghost town, I was sold; I mean, how often are you able to purchase a motel, gas station, cafe, AND acreage for less than the cost of home in Denver? Ready to see a few pictures of the soon-to-be Annietown Cabin Creek?

"The old Gas Station still has pumps outside. 3300sqft Building was a gas station repair shop and at one point a movie theater! It has a 300sqft office with men's and woman's restrooms, 800sqft front showroom, 2200sqft clear span shop with 12ft overhead door. Concrete block construction. Concrete floors. Separate metered 200amp electric service. Mobile home space behind the garage."

I had a hard time figuring out what this building is, but I can only assume that it is an Army barrack for your town's military. (Or the commercial shop... hard to say for sure.)
