This property was part of a large tree farm that was owned and operated by a well-respected and well-known family in the community. The family subdivided the land before selling the property. The beauty and serenity - and the variety of trees - still exists to this day. Learn more about this land:This cozy, private, and peaceful spot is shaded by mature spruce and pine next to a ravine leading down to a small creek and more than 3 kilometres of hiking/snowshoe trails that meander through the forest and along the creek. Frisbees and horseshoes are available for guests' use. Soak in the peaceful environment and relax in our hammocks or chairs. Two friendly dogs and two friendly cats live on the property and are sure to give you a warm welcome, just as their owners will. Less than 10 min away are lakes and environmental reserves for paddling and fishing, hiking and bicycling, and geocaching. Local amenities (shopping, recreation, banking, groceries) are less than a 10-minutes drive away. Although this property is located not far from major urban centres, with convenient access to major routes to and from Edmonton, Spruce Grove, and Stony Plain,  you will feel miles from civilization, thanks to the abundance of trees, privacy and the serenity of the place. It's the best of both worlds! Rest and rejuvenate in your forested campsite without having to travel to the boonies to do so!We want to share our peaceful, serene, and beautiful property with those who can respect our pristine environment.
