Sip on your glass of wine and just listen to all nature has to offer around you. 1.74 acres of land just steps away from hiking, fishing, rafting, biking, floating, off roading, and skating on Ghost River that feeds the North end of Ghost Lake. This property is an opportunity to acquire a quintessential home in the woods that can be passed down through generations. Perfect place to escape and unwind surrounded by the smells, sights, and sounds of the forest and the Ghost River.
