The Blake Creek Retreat

Discover the freedom of true off-grid living with this private 20-acre North Idaho retreat. Tucked behind gated access, this secluded property offers southern exposure, incredible privacy, mature timber, and the chance to create your own self-sufficient escape surrounded by nature. The cozy cabin features a wood stove, kitchen area, bedroom, living space, and storage. A generator system is already installed, providing a dependable power solution while maintaining the independence of off-grid living. Enjoy a seasonal spring-fed pond, rainwater collection system, and established garden areas supported by water from a nearby creek. The healthy timber has not been harvested in approximately 30 years, creating a beautiful forested setting with abundant wildlife. Bordering hundreds of acres of tribal land, this property offers unmatched seclusion and endless outdoor recreation opportunities. A rare North Idaho getaway for those looking to unplug, and build their own private retreat. The tribal land bordering this property belongs to the Coeur d'Alene Reservation, a 345,000-acre reservation spanning Benewah and Kootenai Counties that has been home to the Coeur d'Alene people for centuries. This creates a rare and permanent buffer of undeveloped land on the property's boundary something no HOA or zoning restriction can replicate. St. Maries, the Benewah County seat situated at the confluence of the St. Joe and St. Maries Rivers, is the nearest town for groceries, fuel, and services. The St. Joe River a federally designated Wild and Scenic waterway renowned for native westslope cutthroat trout and bull trout flows through the broader area, and Heyburn State Park, Idaho's oldest state park with camping and boating on Lake Chatcolet, is also within the county. Coeur d'Alene is approximately 53 miles to the northwest via Highway 3 and US-95 for broader commercial access and a regional airport.
