Property Description

Nearly 5 flat acres just ~500 feet from the Olympic Discovery Trail, with hardtop biking and walking access all the way to Lake Crescent and beyond. A rare blank canvas for an outdoor retreat, whether you’re building a homestead, a basecamp, or a short-term rental play. Infrastructure is already in place: Crescent water and PUD power to the property and a septic system installed. A gated, circular driveway winds through mature and unique vegetation, leading to a cleared homesite with multiple concrete pads marking where residences and a shop once stood. A woodshed still stands, and a seasonal pond could have potential to bring it back to life. Cleared with also mature trees at the backside and room to cut your own trails. Location is the real story here. Minutes from Salt Creek Recreation Area’s tide pools and WWII bunkers, Freshwater Bay and Murdock Beach for beachcombing (shells, fossils, sea glass), and the Lyre and Elwha Rivers for fishing. Lake Crescent and Lake Sutherland offer swimming, kayaking, and some of the clearest water on the Peninsula. Add Olympic National Park trailheads, county and state parks, and a straight shot to the Joyce General Store for supplies. This property sits on the thoroughfare to it all, a true launch point for anyone who wants nature at the doorstep and adventure minutes away.
