Set on 1.78 acres and bordering nearby National Forest access, the property includes three well-maintained cabins totaling approximately 3,200 square feet. Two cabins offer 1,024 square feet each, with a third at 1,152 square feet. All three feature three bedrooms, two full baths, full kitchens, and wood-burning fireplaces, creating comfortable, functional accommodations suited for year-round enjoyment. The setting is quiet and private, with an on-site fishing pond, mature trees, and easy access to Vallecito's recreational amenities. This property is well-positioned for multiple uses, including short-term vacation rentals, long-term income production, or a commercial hospitality operation.
