El Rancho Cima. And nobody else can build on it.
Alaska or Colorado are my top two.
The country
Within the US? Wyoming.
If foreign countries are in play, the Scottish Highlands.

Montana or Wimberley.
I already live in the country
Oregon
You're in luck. The Sam Houston Area Council has put it up for sale.Angry Panda said:

Polebridge, Montana or north of Baxter State Park in Maine.

I would build on a half acre lot or so on Dunlap or McQueeney.
Let's see you either want to live near the enlightened residents of Polebridge with their medicinal herb...or bushwhack through hikers on the AT when they arrive all tired and disoriented.ursusguy said:

If only I had $20MM laying around.
I've heard Port Arthur is nice this time of year.
This has to be a very big house... It'd need to be somewhere I could watch the afternoon repeats and all the food that I eat in the country.
They closed Cima?Angry Panda said:Claude! said:You're in luck. The Sam Houston Area Council has put it up for sale.Angry Panda said:

I'd go Alaska, Washington, Montana or Colorado. Mountains year round sounds amazing
Yeah, too expensive to run and not enough weekend camping. Plus, there was some major flooding around River Camp the last few years, especially in 2015. Looks like they already have a tentative buyer. SHAC won't run a summer camp in 2018; I think new Strake opens up in 2019.wangus12 said:They closed Cima?Angry Panda said:Claude! said:You're in luck.

Gonna eat a lot of peaches
Honestly, just big house that could sleep the whole extended family an easy drive from College Station.
Although if access isn't a consideration, and I could just helicopter in whenever I want, Colorado would be hard to beat. Or Germany/Austria if looking global.

I would buy the Powderhorn Ranch.
Depends on how rich. I always want to be based out of Texas.
Normal rich means I build my house out near Colorado Bend State Park.
Rich rich means I build an auxillary fly fishing house out near Lake City, CO.

If in Texas, then in the hill country on the Frio.
If not in Texas, then somewhere in Colorado or Montana right on a lake or river

Ahh, this is very true. The locals of Polebridge are some of the more unique potheads I have ever seen. Yeah, might have to reevaluate that idea.
I could go for Ute Park or Mosquero (yeah, odd selection) in New Mexico.

The Swan River near Bigfork, Montana.

We had to move when an oil spill occurred on local school grounds. We just wanted to get away from the city. And away from the memory of Becky the duck.
I'd build a cabin in Colorado and call it "The Meadows"
Or more seriously, somewhere west of Hamilton, MT in the Bitterroots.

I have visited Oregon once. Stayed at a huge house on a blueberry farm. One of the prettiest place I've been.
nvm. I thought it said "another country"
Moving to the country!
My son is there this week. They're one of the last groups camping there. It closes after this week, I believe.Claude! said:You're in luck. The Sam Houston Area Council has put it up for sale.Angry Panda said:

From this morning (they spent the night at Sentinel Peak with The Lone Tree).
They're doing the 15 mile "death march" hike tomorrow.
I was never actually there as a camper, but I was on staff for two summers in high school in the mid 90s (I worked in the kitchen). Lot of fond memories of that place; I'm sure your boy will look back and cherish his.
