This amazing crystal clear lake (Cajón de Peñas), the second largest in Jalisco, is located only one and a half hours south of Puerto Vallarta, towards Careyes; at less than 18 miles from the ocean; and at 20 minutes from Tomatlan’s airport. Furthermore it is connected to Talpa through a new state road, with easy access to Guadalajara.

Tributary rivers run through virgin forests of the Western Sierra Madre, -- a natural habitat of parrots, jaguars, ducks, boars and deer -- and discharge their clean waters into the lake. Many species of fish make their homes here including bass, tilapia and catfish, which make this lake a true attraction for sport fishermen.

This 1,500 acre ranch, with open planes and rolling hills, also is home to sought after tropical trees such as parota, tapizirán and avillo trees.

Currently being used as a ranch, the 1.5 miles of waterfront property is wonderfully sited for cabins or villas (click here to see houses already built around the lake) for the Mexican or foreign markets, since waterfront properties values have skyrocketed. This is an excellent investment opportunity.

We are keeping 500 acres for our own ecovillage project. The price of this property is only US$3,690 per acre for remaining of 1,000 acres, or US$4,770 for fractions of more than 250 acres. We will also be offering strips with lakefront in multiples of 50 acres for US$5,835 per acre and of 7.5 acres for US$10,000/acre (with 150 feet of lakefront).
