Rim Drive, Sprague River, OR 97639
The road in is easy, about two minutes off the highway and then good dirt the rest of the way. What you’ll find is flat, open ground at 4,596 feet, sage brush and dry grass, with power already run to a neighbor about 150 yards off. The county lets you put up a house as small as 300 square feet, and there’s no deadline to do it. No HOA either.
The Kind of Ground You Can Actually Start On
You’ve been saying “one of these days” about land for a while now. The wanting was never the problem. It was the price, or the rulebook that came with it.
This one is flat and open, about as easy to build on as ground gets. The county allows a house as small as three hundred square feet, a modular, or a tiny home set on a foundation, and it puts no deadline on when you put one up (a novelty, if you have ever owned in a subdivision with opinions). Buy it on terms and you camp on it while you pay it down, then the building starts once the deed is in your name. No HOA either way.
It sits about five minutes from the town of Sprague River, up at 4,596 feet, with the river running a little over half a mile south. Half an hour up the road in Chiloquin, a volunteer club has laid better than twenty-five miles of seven-and-a-half-inch gauge track through the woods at a place called Train Mountain. Guinness named it the longest miniature railroad in the world in 2004, and they have not stopped building since.
Here’s what you need to know before you put a stake in the ground: this is sage brush and dry grass, not a postcard. The good view is from the bluff just off the northwest corner, not the middle of the lot (the sort of detail a glossy listing tends to lose). Flat and plain is the trade, and the upside is you won’t spend a season clearing it.
A place doesn’t have to be spectacular to be yours. It just has to be ground you can stand on knowing nobody’s coming to tell you what to do with it.
Is this your kind of land
A homestead, cabin, or modest house you build on your own timeline with no HOA breathing down your neck.
Not a fit for full-time RV camping, long-term tent sites, or buyers who need to live in an RV while permitting takes months.
On the ground
The red outline on the map is approximate. It is drawn from county records to show roughly where the lot sits, not a surveyed boundary.

The record
† From county maps and records. Check with the county, or ask your Land Specialist what we have on file.
Dig deeper
Water: On-site: None. Options: Well or Haul. Would be a well, water haul and holding tank or other similar option
Sewer / septic: On-site: None. Options: Septic.
The lot is flat enough to set the house where you want it without moving dirt first. The county allows a septic and either a drilled well or a haul tank, and you can price out a tie into the power lines 150 yards south or go solar, which it is happy to permit. A house can be as small as 300 square feet, so a cabin or a tiny home on a foundation counts, and there is no deadline to finish. On an owner-financed purchase you camp on it while you pay it down, and the building starts once the deed transfers to you.
