The stunning landscape is only bested by the improvements, including a 3 bedroom/2.5 bathroom 2,970± SF main home, 902± SF log guest cabin, a 12,000± SF barn/recreation center that sleeps 22 that includes a shop and vehicle storage, a rustic cabin with an outhouse, two pole-frame storage buildings, and a sporting clays course.
