Alaska Wilderness, Own Your Own Piece Of It

By
Real Estate Agent with Valley Market Real Estate

Aerial photoHave you dreamed of owning a piece of the real Alaska? I mean the kind of property where your nearest neighbours are moose and other wildlife, rather than smelly cars and trucks?

Have you dreamed of building your own log cabin from logs gathered from your own land?

 Here is your opportunity, for only $15,000.  This lakefront parcel is smack dab in the middle of a beautiful part of Alaska.  Although it's only about 40 miles northwest of Anchorage by air, it would take a two hour drive by car the boat launch at Deshka Landing, then down the Susitna to the mouth of the Yentna, then up the Yentna about 15 miles to where you start hiking.  Bring your GPS, there is no trail.

About 20 miles due West of Willow and separated from civilisation by both the Susitna and the Yentna Rivers is this 4.7 acre parcel. It sits on a quiet unnamed lake about one mile West of the Yentna River. Zoom in and out from this google map to get your bearings.

This parcel map from the Matanuska-Susitna Borough helps to find the shape of the lot on Wasilla Real Estate, huling borough parcelthe lake.  You can expand both the parcel map and the aerial photo by clicking on the image.

Access to this parcel is either by air to a lake about 1/4 mile away or by boat up the Yentna River and then up a little side stream off the Yentna.  You will need to hike a little both ways.

Needless to say, this parcel is off the grid.

If you are interested in something a little more civilized...but still Alaskan, try this cabin on for size.

It's not cold Danny,  It's only 46 degrees right not...at 1 AM.  What am I doing up at 1 AM?  Chasing my 17 yo off to bed from he cramming for class tomorrow.

BTW...that's Mt. Mckinley and Mt Foraker off about 100 miles to the North in that aerial photo.  This parcel would have a beautiful view of them across the lake.
