Recreational Land & Farm for Sale in Salina, Utah

Paradise at Gooseberry

Pristine meadows, plentiful wildlife, tillable acreage, and ample water set this property apart as one of the premier private land parcels in central Utah. This 190-acre parcel is located at the gateway to Fishlake National Forest, nestled against the slopes of Oak Ridge, and about a mile off the paved Gooseberry Road and I-70. This legacy property has been owned by the same family for generations and has been well-maintained over the years, resulting in a pristine parcel ready to be developed and enjoyed.

In years past, this parcel was home to premium-producing tillable acreage and was homesteaded in the 1800s. While the farming operation has faded with time, the infrastructure and rich soils remain, offering the next owners the opportunity to farm or graze while enjoying the many recreational opportunities the area has to offer. Nearly 100 acres of this property are in semi-irrigated meadows offering premium grazing for cattle. A gravity-fed irrigation system helps make use of the ample water resources in the area. Further adding to the value are multiple springs running on and through the property, which provide plenty of water for both cattle and wildlife alike.

Speaking of wildlife, this property is home to elk, mule deer, turkeys, and many other species. The property is entitled to two cow elk depredation tags each year, with the possibility to acquire an additional two cow elk tags through the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources. With the property being surrounded on three sides by Fish Lake National Forest, the hunting and recreational opportunities are excellent.

The northeastern portion of the property, as well as the south, is covered in sage and pinyon-juniper forest, providing both privacy and sanctuary for local wildlife with over 70 wooded acres. If you are looking for a one-of-a-kind private homesite or a place to put your cabin/getaway property, this 190-acre parcel offers several locations for development. With mountain views, no neighbors, and excellent access, the potential of this slice of paradise is ready to be unlocked!
