Neighborhood

Welcome to your own little cabin in the woods. This is just off Sheep Creek Rd., and feels like you're away from it all, but yet you're only 15-20 minutes from the airport, 10-15 from major shopping, 5-10 minutes from the university and just 1.8 miles to the nearest showerhouse/laundry facility and awesome local restaurant/bar, Ivory Jack's. The cabin is situated on 2 acres of huge old spruce trees, with Goldstream Creek encompassing the property line, along with your very own little pond where migratory birds love to come and go. You do have a few closer neighbors who are all quiet and nice. It is a sweet, safe and peaceful little Goldstream neighborhood. You'll drive back Golden Valley Dr. (the road you turn onto off of Sheep Creek Rd.) and take it all the way back (you'll pass others' cabins with no trespassing and other hilarious signs) until you get to Starwood Ct. which is a Y and look for the red metal poppies. Veer to the left here and you'll dead end into the cabin (you'll pass my neighbors on the left who have little kids so always toys out front)!
