Description

Enjoy expansive canyon views and four-season recreation with this high-country off-the-grid cabin tucked in the heart of the Bear River Mountain Range. Beautifully set against the majestic rolling hills with seasonal access just over seven miles off State Highway 36, this turnkey Stauffer Canyon two-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath, 3000+/-square-foot cabin is well-maintained and sits on forty acres, with an adjacent forty-acre parcel providing additional privacy and a potential build site.

The terrain offers endless exploration both on and off the property and opportunities to invite family and friends to set up camp in your own backyard. The creek and natural vegetation, including wild berries, provide shelter and habitat for wildlife such as mule deer, elk, moose, and upland game, which frequent the property. Experience the serenity of the outdoors year-round on the covered front porch and upper covered deck. The main level front porch is full length of the cabin and offers ample space for greeting guests and seating. Relax to the gentle sounds of the aspen leaves rustling in the breeze and enjoy the fresh mountain air. The stars in the night sky seem to shine especially bright. Enjoy stargazing without all of the city's light pollution.

Bear Lake State Park and Marina, known as the Caribbean of the Rocky Mountains for its turquoise blue water, is just thirty-three miles away. Float, fish, or swim along the nearby Bear River and return to warm up by the campfire or wood-burning stove and enjoy wildlife viewing from the privacy of your own backyard. This is an outdoor recreation enthusiast’s paradise with Cache National Forest close by. Access to miles of dirt roads and trails to explore backpacking, mountain biking, horseback riding, cruising in ATVs, big game, and upland game hunting. Winter access requires a snowmachine and opens the door to a magical winter wonderland to explore snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, fat tire biking, and snowshoeing.

Equipped with full off-grid capability, including pedestal solar panels, a separate building with a battery room, and a Kohler generator. The low-maintenance fiberglass siding and roof with InsulSafe insulation and partially enclosed upper deck add to the value and peace of mind, especially as a recreational property. In addition to the full bath inside the cabin, a separate plumbed shower house equipped with electricity, a water heater, two showers, two sinks, and two toilets.comes in handy when hosting guests. The open floor plan with nine-foot ceilings on the main level, a vaulted ceiling on the upper level, and natural light streaming in through the windows creates a welcoming glow against the warm wood paneling. In the fall, the lush evergreen carpeted ridge is particularly vibrant against the golden leaves and white trunks of the aspens. This may be just the recreational property you have been waiting for.
