This is a beautiful, fairly flat parcel that looks out over the rangeland and surrounding foothills that lead to the lush Sprague River Valley. It is so peaceful here, you can hear the warm, gentle wind blowing across the plateau, and birds overhead. Many of the lots within the subdivision do not have homes yet, and many are used primarily for vacation or base-camp spots for the nearby outdoor recreation opportunities. This would be the perfect place if you are wanting to get away from a busy lifestyle and enjoy the peacefulness here.

The property needs a well, septic, and power. Power is within the subdivision. The area receives around 300 days of sunshine per year, and some people here successfully opt for solar power or choose the off-grid lifestyle. The county wells logs show that wells in the area are productive. Although not on this parcel, there are natural springs in the area! Of course, be sure and check with local jurisdictions on the viability and costs of your plans. The subdivision does permit modular homes here!

This photo is looking northwest from the property toward Crater Lake National Park and the Cascade Mountains. There was a little bit of smoke blowing in from the fires in California, so it looked a bit hazy on the day we were there.
This is the Hitching Post in the town of Sprague River, notice that there is still a place to hitch your horse! There is also a deli/cafe, a convivence store with fuel, and a few other small shops. We were here pretty early in the morning, but usually the Hitching Post is open with a few locals out front to greet you with the news of the day and some good conversation.
The elevation is around 4,000 feet here, the winters do get cold, and the summers are warm. Spring and fall are mild, but if you plan on planting a garden you may need to start your plants in a greenhouse to avoid the late spring frosts.

It is very rural here but we did get cell service while at the property, and there are internet service providers that service this zip code.
