Electric Lake, UT

Here are a few pictures of Electric Lake. I am planning to go back up there around July 31 and will take some more pictures. If you're around, feel free to tag along.

Nice trees behind the fire pit area.


The property is against the hillside. That means no neighbors behind this property ever.



This is the main water supply for the property. There is at least one other faucet on the property.

This is looking at the main entry gate from the upper part of the property.

This is the view out towards the road. The white trailer is my bishops land.

Here is the shed.

Another view of the upper part.

This is the second, or back, entry gate.

Cabin Property

Here is the cabin property that we are looking into purchasing. It is located about 45 minutes south of Provo between Indianola and Fairview. I will try to provide as much information as I can about the property, but if you have any questions that I don't answer in this blog you can always call me.




The property is a 1 acre lot that has been leveled in areas and graveled to provide easy and convienent access. There is running water (drinkable) and a septic system already installed on the property. Currently the property has a 12' x 12' storage shed. My thought are to turn it into a bunk house for sleeping in. There are two gates to the property making it easy to bring in a camp trailer without having to do any backing up. It has an inground fire pit with a grate covering.




Located about 30 minutes away is Electric Lake. There is ample opportunity to fish and boat on the lake. there are also several other smaller lakes scattered throughout the area. Other available recreational activities include trails for riding ATVs, hiking, mountain biking, snowmobiling during the winter, and obviously camping.





One of the benefits of this particular property is that our neighbor (and bishop) owns the property right across the road and has offered to let us use it if we ever had larger gatherings.




The current owners are asking $29,000 but when I talked to the wife she indicated that they would consider a lower offer. My goal is to get it for $26,000 which I think is closer to its real value based on other properties for sale in the area. We are thinking that the minimum buy in will be 1/10th share or $2600.




There are some yearly fees to consider as well. There is a Property Owners Association that has a $10/mo fee. There is a water usage fee and property taxes. According to my bishop, the fees total between $30-40/mo. We would have to work out the details on splitting the costs.



Well, here are the pictures for your viewing pleasure. Please get a hold of me if you have any questions.





This is the lower part of the property. There are stairs that lead to the upper part.




This is more of the lower portion. You can see the fire pit with grate as well as the shed.




This is the upper portion looking west. There is an entry gate just around the trees on the right.





Upper area looking east. Lots of parking.
