About this property
Retreat on 153 acres starting at a river and ending in a canyon, come have fun!
A beautiful, retreat on 153 acres in Spanish Fork Canyon, with endless opportunities to explore and play. We just added a hot tub, fireplace and game consoles to the house and lots of games to our game shed, we have foosball, air hockey, ping pong and pool! Along side the shed is a large field that has been converted to a campground. We are in prime hunting area as well. This home is a great home base for hunters in the fall. This is a gorgeous area, with a canyon on one end and access to wilderness land on the other. You can sled, snowshoe and cross-country ski in the winter, hike and mountain bike in the summer, or just gaze up at the millions of stars that explode across the sky at night. I fell in love with this property for its incredible views, its seclusion, and the opportunity to connect with the outdoors.
We have a large 20x50 insulated shed near the home with Kitchenette and games with a large camping area beside it. It is a great place to gather outside of the heat of summer or cold of winter. Our campground with a large fire pit is next to the shed. The campground can hold multiple tents and there is parking areas sufficient for a few RV's although we do not have hookups for RVs. If you will have more than 20 guests extra fees may apply, please inquire.
Coming soon on the hayfield bordering the bank of the thistle river, we are creating a cut-your-own Christmas tree farm! We’re excited to preserve this virgin area and share it with the community.
As a safety note, we are on a workings farm with equipment and horses that we access to care for.
We have thistle creek that runs on the property that is great for fishing and wading but water safety measures should be taken. We also are in the mountains where you can enjoy visits from deer, elk, and wild turkeys but should know that rattle snakes are present in this region as well.
