Cabins For Sale - Cheap

Is it still possible to find cheap cabins for sale in nice locations? After looking into this, I have to conclude that the answer is a definite yes. Here are some examples I found in a real estate guide from the summer of 2008, and from many different states. These are meant solely to show you what is available out there (most of these will probably have sold by the time you read this).

Near Clinton, Arkansas - $45,000 for a cabin on 27 acres. Rustic, but with electricity. Mostly wooded land, with some small bluffs and rock outcroppings. Deer, turkey and bears frequent the area. $20,000 for a cabin on 20 acres in a big valley near a stream. This one also has a lot of wildlife in the area. It does mention that the cabin needs repairs, but it seems that the value is in the land in any case.

Near Rye, Colorado - $85,000 for a two-bedroom cabin in the beautiful Wet Mountains. It is near hunting and fishing and the San Isabel National Forest.

Ironton, Missouri - $49,000 for a hunting cabin near Crane Lake and National Forest land. Mostly wooded, with a seasonal creek. The two-bedroom cabin is roughed in and ready to complete.

Near Mountain Grove, Missouri - $45,900 for a two-bedroom, two-bath stone cottage in the Ozark mountains. Oak floors and a new roof. Garage.

There certainly could be better examples of inexpensive cabins for sale out there. I recall regularly seeing them go for less than $40,000 in Eastern Michigan a few years ago. The listings above were just some of what caught my eye in a guide published by UnitedCountry.com in 2008.
