Turkey Creek Mesa is the mesa to the South of the Telluride Valley, where Alvie Adams and his son Gene ran cattle and cut hay, now is home to the Mountain Village and the Telluride Ski Area and Golf Course. This rolling ranch land is perfectly suited for the homes that situated there today. West Meadows the original name of the hay fields of Alvie Adams. Joe Zoline purchased this magnificent property in 1972 from Gene Adams as part of the future Ski Resort. 25 years later Joanne Corzine, T.D. Smith and partners had plans for an upscale high density community, but chose a more aesthetically pleasing and ecologically friendly approach to development. The West Meadows is the first large piece of land that was developed into mostly 35 acre lots, giving up the density that was allocated for the property through TREPAC, a regional master plan. With only 12 lots on this 620-acre site the West Meadows offers the utmost privacy with equestrian easements and all the modern utilities including water from the Mountain Village. Elk Run is located directly south of the Ski Ranches. This low-density subdivision of 30 lots was the precursor to the Mountain Village. This was the first development done by the Benchmark group led by Ron Allred. Elk Run is ten minutes from town and five minutes from the Mountain Village core and offers private tennis and large lots that average 5.3 acres. Raspberry Patch is located 2.5 miles south of the Mountain Village entrance. Having only five lots averaging 35-acres, the Raspberry Patch is one of the southernmost developments and sits between Elk Run and the Skyline Guest Ranch. Nearly all the lots are improved, with the last home sale commanding a price of $4.4 million. The Preserve was part of the property that the Zoline family retained when they sold the Ski Resort to Allred's Benchmark Group. The Zoline's developed this low-density neighborhood into 12 lots averaging approximately 13-acres each. One of the southernmost high-end developments, the Preserve sits on the benches below highway 145 across from Raspberry Patch and offers some of the best views on Turkey Creek Mesa with privacy that is uncompromised.
