Owners took possession of this property in 1995 and have NEVER hunted or Fished the land so wildlife abound including Elk, Deer, Bear, Bobcats, Otters and Beaver, Mink, Weasels and more. We have birdhouses up for over a hundred families and have identified over 60 varieties of birds and nesting wood ducks. This is an ideal place to get in touch with nature. The Owner states "I seriously doubt if there has ever been a day in 18 years that the elk were not someplace on the property, and Fish and Game will give the owner a permit to take two elk a year as mitigation over any damage the elk may do to our trees and plants outside the garden. Because I don't hunt, right now I figure the state owes me 38 elk! But as long as I have Costco the Elk and Salmon have their freedom." The property has a great fire suppression system and comes with 2 water rights plus Gravity Flow spring water to house, garden, barn and orchard. Shop has 220 and is connected to the barn.
