Homes with Acreage for Sale in Tabiona, Utah
Tabiona sits in the upper Duchesne River valley at about 6,500 feet, tucked between the south slope of the Uintas and the West Tavaputs Plateau. It's ranching country — under 200 residents in town, surrounded by hay meadows, irrigated pasture, and BLM and Forest Service ground that runs straight up into elk and mule deer habitat. Acreage here isn't a luxury upcharge the way it is in Heber or Kamas; it's the default. Most parcels that change hands are 5 to 40 acres, often with water rights tied to the Duchesne River or one of the ditch companies, and many come with outbuildings, loafing sheds, or working corrals already in place.
Buyers shopping Tabiona acreage usually fall into two camps: working agricultural buyers who want irrigated ground and grazing, and recreation-minded buyers who want a base camp near Moon Lake, the Uinta high country, and some of the best big-game units in the state. Winters are real — expect snow from November into March and county-maintained gravel on many access roads — and the nearest full-service grocery is in Duchesne or Roosevelt, roughly 25 to 40 minutes out. Cell service is spotty, internet is improving with fixed wireless and Starlink, and power is Moon Lake Electric. Browse the active listings below to see what's currently on the market, and pay attention to water rights and access on each parcel since those two details drive value here more than square footage.

Common questions
About homes with acreage in Tabiona.
How much land typically comes with a Tabiona property? ▾
Most acreage listings in the Tabiona area run between 5 and 40 acres, though larger ranch parcels of 80 to several hundred acres do come up. Smaller in-town lots exist but are the exception — the surrounding valley is platted in agricultural tracts, and many sellers split off building sites from working hay ground.
Do these properties usually include water rights? ▾
Many do, but it varies parcel by parcel. Irrigated ground tied to the Duchesne River system or a local ditch company is significantly more valuable than dry pasture, so the listing should spell out shares, acre-feet, and the delivery schedule. Always have water rights verified through the Utah Division of Water Rights before closing.
Can I run livestock or horses on Tabiona acreage? ▾
Yes — this is open agricultural country and most parcels are already set up for cattle, horses, or sheep. Duchesne County zoning is permissive on ag uses, and many properties border or have permitted access to grazing allotments on adjacent public land. Carrying capacity depends heavily on whether the ground is irrigated.
What's the drive to bigger towns and services? ▾
Duchesne is about 25 minutes southeast on SR-35, Roosevelt is roughly 40 minutes, and Heber City is about an hour west over Wolf Creek Pass when the pass is open (typically late spring through fall). Salt Lake City is two to two-and-a-half hours depending on route and season.
Is Wolf Creek Pass open year-round? ▾
No. SR-35 over Wolf Creek Pass closes to through traffic in winter, usually from around Thanksgiving until mid-to-late spring. Winter access to Tabiona from the Wasatch Front routes through Heber to Daniels Summit and around via Duchesne, which adds about 40 minutes.
What should I check on before making an offer on rural acreage here? ▾
Confirm legal access (deeded vs. easement), water rights and shares in writing, well status and depth, septic permit and condition, power service location, and whether the parcel is in a flood zone along the Duchesne. Also ask about grazing permits or hay leases that may transfer or terminate at closing.
