DESCRIPTION: This former corporate fly fishing retreat is
located two miles from the historic town of Avery, along
a Wild and Scenic stretch of the St. Joe River, within the
panhandle of northern Idaho. It is one hour east of St.
Maries and within a two hour drive of Coeur d’Alene. The
10.2± acre property has 1,100± feet of low-bank St. Joe River
frontage, and could be used as either a private retreat,
or as a commercial operation, subject to an approved
conditional use permit from Shoshone County, as a base
camp for fishing, hunting and snowmobiling.
There are two buildings that have been used as a retreat
by public corporations and investment firms in the forest
products and timber business.
The 1,237± square foot three bedroom, two bathroom
cabin has been recently renovated and is being sold fully
furnished. The cabin can accommodate up to six, with a
great room and natural rock fireplace, equipped kitchen
and laundry. There is electric heat and the cabin is served
by an on-site well and septic, and there is telephone
service. The cabin has a covered deck with a view of the St.
Joe River. Fishhook Creek has 1,050± feet of frontage along
the eastern boundary.
The second building is 754± square feet and is located
below the cabin, along Siberts Old River Road, with
frontage on the St. Joe. It has been used as a garage and
for storage. There is 300± square feet of unfinished space
that has potential for additional guests or caretaker
quarters with the addition of a full bathroom. Power
and water will need to be extended. A new 1,000 gallon
septic tank was installed in 2009. There is an easement to

The St. Joe River is considered a blue-ribbon stream and offers year-round catch and release fishing
