North Fork Meadows is a 29+ acre property 20 minutes from Salmon, Idaho, at the base of the foothills overlooking the Fourth of July Creek valley. A 2.5-mile drive up Fourth of July Creek reaches the ranch entrance. The property adjoins the Salmon-Challis National Forest, with sweeping views and abundant wildlife. The 1983 log home, built by Ernest Hemingway's granddaughter, features hand-hewn logs and natural stone. The main floor has a living room with propane stove, open kitchen, dining room, and bath. Upstairs are the bedroom, a second bath, and a walk-out deck. The guesthouse offers an open living area, kitchen, laundry, one bedroom, stone fireplace, walk-in vault, and two upstairs rooms, plus an attached four-stall garage with shop space. Both homes share a backup generator. Horse and livestock facilities include a five-stall barn with tack room and hay loft, round pen, hay storage building, elk-fenced paddocks, livestock sheds, and cattle pens with a loading chute. A second generator serves the ag buildings and Ritchie waterers. A year-round pond and an irrigation ditch running April through November come with irrigation and stock water rights. North Fork Meadows suits a private ranch, equestrian retreat, or family compound.
