Description
Nestled in the scenic Bear River Mountain Range in the quaint town of Mink Creek, this gem offers an oasis escape with panoramic views and proximity to public land for almost limitless recreational opportunities. Conveniently located off Highway 36 with approximately 264 feet of frontage and seasonal driveway access underway, this property has recently been surveyed and is primed for a build site. Build the cabin of your dreams and create a recreational oasis, or bring your horses or other livestock and establish the homestead you have always wanted. Whichever your vision, enjoy country living with beautiful mountain and valley views and the convenience of proximity to Preston and Logan, Utah.
Carpeted with native pasture grasses, pockets of fragrant sagebrush, wildflowers, and fruit trees, this gradually to moderately sloping terrain creates a naturally inviting and versatile build opportunity. Deer, elk, and wild turkeys frequent the area and provide the opportunity to sit back and enjoy wildlife viewing from the privacy of your own backyard. A residential or recreational build will require a well to be drilled for culinary water, a perc test to be performed for a septic system, and power pulled from the road or an alternative source such as solar. You are not limited by an HOA or CCRs, and additional land is available nearby.
The nearby Cache National Forest offers an outdoor recreation paradise with hundreds of miles of dirt roads and trails and roads to explore, cruising in ATVs, horseback riding, mountain biking, hiking, backpacking, and big game hunting. Winter access requires a snow machine and opens the door to a magical winter wonderland adventure, snowmobiling, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, and fat tire biking.
Oneida Canyon Recreation Area is just seven miles away on Oneida Narrows Road and offers four-season recreation. Enjoy boating, swimming, and fishing at the reservoir, floating and fishing on the Bear River, as well as upland game hunting, camping, hiking, backpacking, bird watching, wildlife viewing, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing along the beautiful Bear River. And treat yourself to a relaxing soak or spa day at the riverside saunas of Maple Grove Hot Springs and Retreat Center, which also offers yoga classes, massages, and acoustic firesides at their yurt.
For the adventurous at heart, drive your side-by-side or motorbike up the German Dugway, a moderately steep, fairly rocky switchback that can be used to access the Paris Ice Caves and Bloomington Lake from this Cub River area and enjoy bird's-eye views of the mountains and surrounding area.
