You also get private access into the adjoining National Forest, opening the door to thousands of acres of public land right out your back door.

Once you're in, winter becomes a big part of the experience snowmobiling, snowshoeing, sledding and backcountry skiing all right from the property into the surrounding forest and mountains. The main home is a custom 2,682 sqft log cabin with real character, featuring an open design, heavy timber beams, and a large lofted living room that serves as the heart of the house. Floor to ceiling windows frame the surrounding landscape, while the log construction throughout gives it a warm, solid mountain feel. The living room is the centerpiece, with soaring ceilings, exposed beams, a fireplace, and those floor to ceiling windows bringing in natural light and views. From there, the home flows into a connected kitchen and dining area, creating a practical layout for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen offers generous counter space and room to gather. Tucked off the main level for privacy, the primary suite includes a large walk in closet and an ensuite bathroom with double sinks. Above, the lofted second story overlooks the living area below, adding to the open feel of the home. Upstairs, you'll find three additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a second loft area that works well as a play space, reading nook, or extra hangout spot for kids or guests. The home is set up for practical mountain living, with solar power, ample battery storage, and electrical systems housed in the concrete basement, which serves primarily as a mechanical and storage area, along with a backup generator for added reliability. In floor radiant heat runs throughout the main level, supported by a wood stove that provides steady warmth during colder months. A wide wraparound covered deck extends the living space outdoors and offers a great spot to take in the views and spend time outside. The original log guest cabin sits just off the main home and carries the same mountain character. With a lofted design, it functions well as a private, self contained guest space while still close to the main residence. The detached shop is a large two car garage with a workspace and additional finished living space above. The upper level works well as extra sleeping quarters, a game room, or flexible space depending on needs. Together, the main home, guest cabin, and shop loft make the property well suited for hosting extended family or larger gatherings while still feeling cohesive and easy to use.

The terrain ranges from timbered ridges to high country and open mountain country, offering year round opportunity right from the property. The setting also works well for larger groups and extended stays, with multiple living spaces that naturally lend themselves to family reunions, gatherings, and time spent together in a true mountain setting. In the warmer months, the area is ideal for exploring trails, ridgelines, and remote lakes throughout the forest. When winter arrives, it shifts into a backcountry playground for snowmobiling, snowshoeing, and backcountry skiing, all accessible right from the property.
