Wild and Scenic Illinois Riverfront 10-acre Parcel with Cabin
Josephine County, Oregon
Elevation; 800 to 920 Feet
Zoning: Forest Commercial with Woodlot Resource Zone
DESCRIPTION: This off-grid 10 acre parcel, with three bedroom cabin, is located along the Wild and Scenic Illinois River, which cuts across northern Kalmioposis Wilderness in rugged Siskiyou Mountains of Southwestern Oregon. It is one hour from Grants Pass. There is year-round access from Highway 199 -- Redwood Highway -- and frontage along Illinois River Road.
It is one of the few private inholdings along this stretch of Illinois River, popular for kayaking and fishing, and known for wild steelhead and salmon populations. Miami Bar USFS Boat Launch, used by outfitters, is one mile south of the property.
The property had been used as both a family and corporate retreat for over sixty years by owners of a sawmill which operated in nearby Cave Junction. This is the first time the property has been offered for sale.
The three bedroom, one bathroom, 1,300 square foot cabin has been renovated, and includes a large deck. It has living and dining area with fireplace, three bedrooms, and full bathroom. A generator provides power. There is on-site well and septic.
The 10 acre parcel has an estimated 600 feet of river frontage, with private sandy beach. The cabin is located on a flat area within an open grassy meadow. Gated access drive is from Illinois River Road, which is a gravel road that connects to Selma and Highway 199, 16 miles east.
Adjoining private lands, including a ranch, are to the north and west. Ranch has cabins and additional buildings used by a Portland-based owner as private family compound.
Josephine County zoning will allow accommodations for fishing and other recreation uses with a conditional use permit, or campground by expanding existing cabin for additional accommodations. Location along a Wild and Scenic River restricts development of structures which can be viewed from the river.
Acquisition of this rare Wild and Scenic Illinois River parcel of ten acres, with cabin and private beach, may be the only opportunity along this stretch of river available for purchase for private family or corporate retreat.
Seller has added incentive by providing short-term financing to accelerate a sale in 2025.
