Made of log from the Sunrise Ski Mountain runs, this 4,100 sq ft home not only feels extremely secluded and is located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in downtown Lakeside, but it backs right up to Billy Creek and is walking distance from miles of hiking and off-road trails! This luxury log cabin gives you a true feeling of being in the middle of the woods while also minutes away from all the amenities and popular spots. You will also find cool little details around the house that represent different areas and time periods of the White Mountains, like the front door which came off of the old Holbrook post office. It was won in a poker game by the original owner/builder in 1977!
