I wanted something that was convenient but off the main roads of Wiley Oakley and Ski Mountain Drive. I wanted a Real Log home. I didn't want to look to my left or right when sitting on my deck and see my neighbor. I wanted to have a view of the National Park. I wanted to be able to go out on my porch in my PJ's or Hot Tub Swim Suit and not worry about someone looking at me. After a many month search found this gem. There were 3 homes up the drive that is at the end of the dead end road on a culda sac. One of them burned in the great fire of 2016 so now there is only two of us. Bears often pass by my house and there is other nature and views.
This is the place I like to come and hike, relax and enjoy the wonderful mountain peace. But if you want crowds and activities they are 15 minutes away at most (mountain road driving).
After spending many months remodeling this log home that had not been properly maintained it has turned out to be a very wonderful gem in the mountains.
