    Description

    Looking for a place to get away from it all, well you have found it. This little oasis is close to town but far enough away to enjoy the peace and quiet of the pristine Jackson River. This lot has a nice deck overlooking the river, shed for storage, electricity on the property and a nice place to have picnic shelter or a beautiful fire pit area. There is an old camper on the property but seller is not sure of the shape it is in, so it is being sold as-is. The Jackson River Scenic Trail is close by as is area golf courses. You can kayak or fish in the river or just sit there and drink your coffee and enjoy the outdoors.
    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources. This description is from August 27, 2024

      "Unless your physically fit, mowing the lawn is nearly impossible. Not only is it on a cliff, the front yard is concave! One of the side yards floods every time it rains. Both trees in the front yard are dead and ready to fall onto the house down below. The driveway is pitched at a 45 degree downward slope. The carport also floods. The nearest city is fifteen minutes away. It has minimal shopping, nightlife and dining. There are only three parks; all extremely small and lacking. The main street in downtown consists mostly empty store fronts. Worse, just a few blocks away is the largest paper mill in the United States of America. Talk about stink! "
