San Juan islands

I once had that dream... to own a small cabin on an island that doesn't get ferry service.  I know a couple of people that do and have visited thier places. If you think a rural part of wa presents a unique set of problems, requiring everything to be hauled in by boat or landing craft just makes all those problems a lot more expensive. 2c

I'd be very carful buying property and splitting with friends or relatives.  Immediate family or very close friends may be ok for a while, but it's the kids or wives who inherit or take control  that can be a big problem.  Over the years I've seen lots of breakups with both friends and families when it came to liquidating or using property.

I live in Kitsap I normally hunt in Rimrock, always see plots from 25 to 100 acres between Randle and Packwood off of Hwy 12.

You could buy my 84 acres on Cowiche Creek.  GMU 368.

PM me details ?

Have you looked into the area between golden dale and Klickitat?  I hunt turkey up there and has all that you are looking for.

I’ve never hunted down there but it sounds like the Klickitat area would be a good match for what you’re looking for. The Yakima area doesn’t have many deer or turkeys and further north than that (Leavenworth to the border) has no elk.

I was recently in the market and for a recreational/hunting property and would have probably gotten a place down in Klickitat County if it was closer to home. I ended up opting for fewer hunting options and a shorter drive.

Enjoy the search and be patient! Also, get out there are drive around. There are a lot of recreational properties for sale by owner that are not listed on Zillow or Redfin.

Just steer clear of the res.

Hey,
   I am interested in what you found?  And, any lessons you might want to pass on.  So far the only thoughts would be to check out the Okanogan Area.

Montana.  Don't bother investing in this sinking ship.

With the way seasons are headed, I would be very reluctant to put $150k into a hunting property only for it to turn into a draw only area or some other restriction in the not too distant future.

We had a cabin growing up and it was great, used it all the time.  But, it was one place.  For $150k, you could take 30-40 guided trips wherever you wanted not counting taxes and maintenance.  Essentially, you could go on 1-2 guided trips a year for the rest of your hunting career probably.

Good luck on the search.

Idaho.. That's when you know you've gone far enough east.

These properties might be a bit too far but by grouse flats just north of troy oregon are a couple of places. 20, and 80 acre lots.  Tons of turkey, deer and elk, not sure about the water.  If it was in Idaho I’d have already bought it, absolutely beautiful. But it is far from a big town, clarkston is about an hour away.

  id look to the blue mts.. there is muleys,whitetails,elk, bears and turkeys

Our lakefront property is on Reflection Lake next to the Scotch Creek Game area. Google it. Our piece is on the very south end of the lake. It's beautiful there. No motorized boats allowed on the lake.

 I found it on Kelly Hill.
