10x12 Rustic Off-Grid Cabin on 3 acres that backs onto BLM land. Tucked away in the forest, this off-grid cabin offers a rare chance to live close to the land and embrace a true homesteading lifestyle. Set on over 3 acres, the property backs directly to nearly 500 acres of BLM land, accessible right out the door, giving you room to roam, ride, and explore as if the land never ends.
The area is rich in natural beauty and old-west character. Just over Cedar Pass you’ll find wild horses roaming about, Hot Springs and Mountains just a short distance away. Peace, quiet, and dark night skies define this place, making it ideal for those looking to unplug and live simply.
A half-acre enclosed with a new sturdy 6-foot fence provides a ready space for gardens, livestock, or a protected homestead yard. The land is well suited for growing food, raising animals, collecting water, and building out your off-grid systems at your own pace.
This cabin isn’t about luxury, it’s about freedom, self-sufficiency, and living life on your own terms. Whether you’re starting a homestead, seeking a remote retreat, or dreaming of a slower, more intentional way of living, this property offers the space, privacy, and access to public land that are becoming harder to find.
