Welcome to Elk Creek Retreat- a successful & beloved short term rental escape, located less than half a mile from The Springs. Enjoy the relaxing sites & sounds of Elk Creek running through the property year round from the expansive covered back deck. Inside, two large primary bedrooms with ensuites lend privacy while the open concept interior with custom tongue & groove vaulted ceilings, wainscotting & trim give the home a warm cabin-like feel. Enjoy the breeze & views throughout from the newly installed Renewal by Andersen™ windows, a recent $30K improvement. Outside, the historic Smokejumpers Dry Cabin is positioned for premium waterfront views- ideal for a workshop, guest room, bunk house or create a true ADU. Bordering BLM public lands, hiking trails & direct access to the air strip make this perfect for an aviator or outdoor enthusiast. Outbuildings with power, a greenhouse & a 40×50 concrete pad with 110/220 are located in the upper portion of the lot. Beyond the footbridge on the lower section is a vast timber rich area featuring a private shared pond. Boundary lines expand to Highway 21 with ample road frontage, ideal for potential commercial use to create your own small-scale glamping oasis or your dream business. Suitable for primary residence with potential to split the lot for future development. (Nearly all furnishings & bnb supplies are negotiable in the sale.)
