Hello! Thanks for your interest! Very quiet Private Setting / North Spokane County, 2miles west of Highway 2, on a dead end private road. Unfurnished. This lake front home is a close-in escape from the hubba and hassles of city living. Eloika Lake very seldom has loud power boats or jet skis and is perfect for kayaking and canoeing. If you like your privacy and love waterfowl and wildlife in the natural setting of this lake, you should like this home. This cozy waterfront home is available now. It's a hideaway on a very private road with 10 other homes, six are occupied year around. No row of secondary homes looking down into your yard like other communities of lake homes. Some history: Past occupants have stayed for over 5 years, another over 3 years as that they loved the privacy that this home offers in this nicely secluded location. It is on a very private dead end road with 9 other homes, 5 are year-around homes. The homes are occupied by retired folks or senior citizens who keep a eye on everyone's homes. Some might refer to this situation as a loose knit retirement village although that's not necessarily the case. Again, a big bonus is that there are no secondary homes behind this home, very private. Lake Eloika is located four miles west of Elk. It is three miles long and lies in a northeast/southwest direction. It is a natural lake, and is an enlargement of the west branch of the Little Spokane River. Lake Eloika extends north about 1000 feet into Pend Oreille County at high water periods. Rather than a house every 50' on the opposite side of the lake, most of the land is owned by a farmer, you have privacy beyond your expectations.

"July 15, 2013 - Over half of all Americans (54 percent) drink bottled water,". Since there has been trace evidence of contaminants in this type of water system bottled water good but . new first time ever a ozone water purification system by the last tenant last fall. ( BTW, We can't maintain and monitor a water purification system because we don't live nearby.) So, having said that, it would be on you to change filters as needed and monitor this purification system, which has a audio alarm, if you want to drink directly from the tap. Two retired brothers use the same water system and I have been told by one brother that he drinks the water directly from the tap.) Lower level.
