feet of river frontage, that includes the former Finn Rock
LoggingCampwhich, in the 1940s, contained twenty homes,
a church, and a company store which remained until 1980.
The Finn Rock Boat Launch is part of the McKenzie River
camp property, and is used by the public as access to the
popular rafting stretch between Finn Rock, and Helfrich
Boat Landing. It could be used by the owner as a private
boat launch, or leased to a private outfitter.
The portfolio also includes a four cabin complex on 8.64±
acres along the McKenzie Highway, near the community of
Blue River, and overlooks Elk Creek. The cabins provide the
option for their replacement with new cabins that could be
used for rentals.
Adjacent to the Elk Creek Cabins is the 145± acre McKenzie
River West property that has potential entitlements for three
riverfront home or cabin sites. In addition, the property has
a rock quarry permitted for private use with a pond which
could easily be incorporated into a recreation use that could
include potential camp sites, fishing pond and system of
hiking and jogging trails. Acquisition of the Elk Creek cabins
by the same Owner would enhance rental potential, giving
access to over 9,200± feet of river frontage.
There is an estimated 5,500 MBF of mature conifer and
hardwoods, including Douglas-fir, white woods, red cedar
and hardwoods on Auction Properties #119 and #120 (see
Supplemental Information Package for inventory) which
could provide some near term cash flow from logging, as
part of the development of portions of the property.
The McKenzie River West Portfolio also has a significant
conservation opportunity in the donation, or sale, of a
conservation or Working Forest Easement in order to
control any future development of potential home sites, or
replacement of the four cabins, potential timber harvest,
and additional quarry operations. The McKenzie River
Land Trust has been very active in obtaining Conservation
Easements, and in acquiring properties that have significant
conservation value.
Acquisition of the entire Portfolio will provide opportunity
to develop seasonal, or year-round, residential and
recreation uses. Sale of the three individual properties is
subject to bids in the aggregate to equal, or exceed, the bulk
reserve price of $3,000,000.
