Deep in your own private wilderness retreat, this 2-bedroom, 2-bath Craftsman-style cabin feels like something straight out of a mountain legend — the kind of place where a Yeti might kick back after a long day in the woods. Set on 2 secluded acres backing to Talona Creek, with views of a tranquil pond and winding stream, this home blends rugged country charm with rock-solid modern upgrades. It’s cozy enough for a weekend escape, smart enough for full-time living, and versatile enough to be an income-producing Airbnb or retirement hideaway. Inside, you’ll find warm wood tones and inviting spaces — plus two true primary suites, each with its own private bath. Whether hosting guests, sharing with family, or maximizing rental potential, everyone gets their own territory. Built for all seasons (even Yeti season), the home features central heating and air, propane capability, and a whole-house generator with a dedicated electrical panel that automatically powers on when the grid goes down. Recent upgrades include a replaced outdoor cooling unit, hospital-grade UV light filtration integrated into the HVAC, and a whole-house water filtration system — delivering fresh air and pure water year-round. Outside, illuminated pebble-lined walking paths guide you through the property like a softly glowing forest trail. The garage boasts a matching metal roof for durability and style, and above it sits a partially finished bonus space — perfect for a guest suite, adventure bunkroom, studio, or additional income opportunity. Private. Powerful. Peaceful. Whether you're chasing mountain air, passive income, or your own legendary escape, this creekside cabin is ready to make every season an adventure. This property qualifies for 100% USDA financing. A free appraisal is available if buyer uses our preferred lender.
