About Chaffee Creek Road

If you have been looking for your secluded get away for your off-grid cabin look no further! This beautiful 37-acre property features a manicured trail system, stream and a perfect building site for your dream cabin. The recent timber sale has left a network of trails that are easily traveled on foot, with horses or an ATV/UTV. This property boasts many mast producing species including red oak, hickory and beech along with mixed hemlock and white pine in the small drainages that run through the property. There are also maple and cherry mixed throughout the woodlot. Another harvest could likely be done in in 10 years or so to help generate revenue. Signs of wild game are plentiful throughout as you traverse the newly established trail system. The recent thinning focused on removal of white ash but left a solid stand of small to medium sawtimber that will quickly accrue volume and value in the future. Just off the road there is a former log landing that would be perfect for a camper, RV or off-grid cabin. This area is flat, drains well and is the starting point for all of the main trails going through the property. It was planted with clover after the most recent timber harvest that has flourished. As you follow along the trails you gain a great vantage point looking up and down the drainages. There are multiple stream crossings to easily let you traverse the entire property. Need more room?
