Sorry but keep dreaming.

Just a place in the woods that might have a deer pass through every now and then--or at least is nearby somewhere that they do.
Might try around shelton area. Tons of deer there. Not sure on trails thou
I think your on the right track. Very doable with the 100k price range. I've been 'looking' and there's alot out there cheaper than some think. (They just may not fit your needs) But good luck man!
Porter, Oakville, Galvin, Bucoda, Adna if you are OK w/getting through Tacoma/Ft Lewis. And be sure to budget for the best when it comes to security system. The meth heads are legendary in that area. It is a quick run into Elma to watch sprint car racing on Saturday night too.

That's a good point. The tweaker factor is definitely something I hadn't considered but that we'll need to think about.
Last weekend of June(non-holiday) it took me a little over 6 hours to get home from Moses Lake. I live in Duvall. It's normally a little over 3 hours I'd say. It would have been a solid 7 hours to get to Seattle. If you're going to have to drive home on Sundays from anywhere, plan on it taking an extremely long time from anywhere. With that said, I agree with what everyone else is saying. Expand your drive a little bit, go east and come home on Mondays. Without traffic, you can be in Ellensburg in 2.5 hours from Seattle. I think what you're looking for is going to be extremely difficult to find, if not impossible.

I hated it and am so glad to be away from that rat race now. Fridays and Sundays were equally awful. Now we have a life again...loving Colorado.
MLS# 1161976Almost perfect. Gold Creek just a stones throw away, not on the property. List price $109K. - Offer $100K firm or dicker up from $95K. edit - taxes are brutal.
Can you get water there?
Quote from: GrampasGuns on July 28, 2017, 05:17:56 PMCan you get water there?Sounds like probably no water. Previous buyers backed out for that reason.
That's the whole state now it seems!
All those places seems to be close to a highway or in a place near other houses. Can you even shoot a rifle in those areas? Seems pretty close to other houses or a road.Quote from: jamesfromseattle on July 23, 2017, 10:03:20 PMQuote from: Buckmark on July 23, 2017, 09:47:50 PMSorry but keep dreaming.Just a few examples that seem like they could fit what we're looking for:https://www.redfin.com/WA/Castle-Rock/0-Tara-Ln-98611/home/44584752https://www.redfin.com/WA/Ashford/31404-558th-Street-Ct-E-98304/home/22758247https://www.redfin.com/WA/Cathlamet/8-Elochoman-Valley-Rd-98612/home/75110205https://www.redfin.com/WA/Rosburg/161-Barr-Rd-98643/home/56815623Again, I'm not expecting to buy a trophy hunting ranch.

Thanks all for the suggestions. Got some really helpful PMs as well. We just had an offer accepted on a parcel of land. Until we've closed on it I am going to ambiguously describe it as "somewhere in the North Cascades".Smaller parcel that I'd imagined, but it is on a river, way under our budget, feels bigger than it is because of the lack of neighbors and bordering timberland. Easy access to a big network of logging roads for hunting access and just around the corner from a designated wilderness area with a ton of great hiking.We were really surprised at how many properties we were able to find that had what we wanted. Definitely took a bit of looking, but we've seen a handful that are well within our budget that we'd be happy with. If anyone else is curious about whether you can get a nice chunk of land in the <100k range, I'd encourage you too look and see what's out there. We're totally psyched about what we're getting.
