This is a reduced price, made possible by the end of our contract with a Realtor. Also we are offering it without the 5.1 acres across the river . Although it is still for sale for $104,000. Originally a 20' x 30' vertical cedar log cabin, used as a rest stop for the loggers who floated down the Priest River in the early 1900's with the log rafts. These men who did this were called River Pigs. Thus we call this place River Pigs Rest. The home sets on 5.6 acres and had over 960 feet of river frontage. Now the cabin is encircled by additions over the years. It now has all new laminate flooring in the 30 x 32 great room and in the new master bedroom suite.

There is electric, gas and wood heat in the house. A 60+ gal per minute well that has no rust problems. No a/c is needed as it rarely gets over 90 degrees and then it is still cool in the am. The property is treed but has good pasture for three horses. Located at the end of a well maintained county road that is a school bus route, so it is plowed regularly in the winter.
