This idyllic 4-bedroom, 3-bath full log home is surrounded by spectacular scenery—including 360-degree mountain views and highland meadows with roaming horses and elk—offering a relaxing year-round retreat for visitors of all ages. You’ll love the pristine setting and its abundant nearby recreation opportunities.
Enjoy the peace and beauty of the neighboring 8-acre pond, surrounding mountains, wildlife, and dark night skies. Watch elk splashing in the pond, bald eagles and osprey soaring, and blue herons fishing, all from the great room or deck. The front porch gets early morning sun, perfect for that first cup of coffee or tea, and you’ll love the spectacular dark skies, perfect for stargazing.
Outdoor enthusiasts will enjoy close proximity to skiing, hiking, fishing, mountain biking, zip lining, sledding, snow shoeing, horseback riding, kayaking, and canoeing.
Drive to a number of nearby locations and then come back to enjoy this relaxing, secluded retreat.
