Nice wooded 2.06 acres near the end of the road. (Take the fork to the right and see directions.) Remotely located, unrestricted. Deeded water rights and road maintenance but they are not collecting dues. Road is in need of repair. It's a dirt road with a lot of dips but you do not need a 4 wheel to get to the property. Lots of possibilities.
