Land

This 20.07-Acre property on Lander Mountain Road is a rare piece of mountain ground made up of five individual lots, four of which are vacant and ready for future use or expansion. Tucked behind a private gate in the premier Homestead Park community, the land offers direct access to the Shoshone National Forest from multiple points. A quarter mile of Sheep Creek winds through the property, feeding eight unique ponds, each full of fish. This steady water source draws in a rich variety of wildlife, with elk and deer moving through the area regularly, along with moose, small game, and other mountain species. The terrain is classic mountain country with a mix of spruce, pine, and quaking aspen that provide cover and beauty year-round. The area is located in an over the counter hunting area for both deer and elk, making it an ideal base for hunting, fishing, and enjoying the outdoors in a private and scenic setting. Each lot has road access, giving you flexibility for use and development.

Improvements

The 1,120 square foot cabin features two bedrooms and two bathrooms, powered by solar with a private well. The open concept living area features vaulted ceilings and large windows that bring in natural light and showcase the surrounding forest. The kitchen includes plenty of counter space, room for dining, and flows into the cozy living room centered around a wood stove. A wraparound covered deck offers the perfect place to watch wildlife or keep an eye on family fishing in the nearby ponds. Heat is provided by wood or propane. The property also includes a 10 12 bunkhouse with a front deck, a 10 20 storage shed, and a well-built outdoor cooking area with its own large rock counter, ideal for campfire meals and family gatherings.

Recreation

This area is perfect for anyone who loves the outdoors. The property includes private access to the Shoshone National Forest, where you can hike, ride, and explore miles of rugged country. It's in a general tag area for both elk and mule deer and is well known for producing trophy animals. Elk and deer are often seen on the property and throughout the area. Sheep Creek and the ponds on the land offer easy fishing, just steps from the cabin, with more streams and mountain lakes nearby. Whether you're hunting, fishing, or just enjoying the outdoors, this is a rare chance to own real mountain ground with true endless access to all that Wyoming offers.
