Welcome to Eagle Lakes - A Rare Alpine Retreat! Tucked away just off I-80, west of Donner Summit, sits Eagle Lakes Lodge, a truly unique 160-acre mountain haven at 5,300 feet elevation. This remarkable piece of alpine paradise showcases forested hillsides, wildflower-filled meadows, dramatic granite outcroppings, and the pristine South Fork of the Yuba River winding its way through the property. It's the kind of setting that feels worlds away--but with access just minutes from the highway. The property includes a rustic lodge in need of repair and a wealth of on-site infrastructure, making it perfect for a private family compound to enjoy and make lasting memories. Utilities are already in place, including electricity, a private well with pump house, propane, and a partial working septic system. Whether you're dreaming of a family compound, mountain resort, or off-grid sanctuary, Eagle Lakes Lodge delivers a rare combination of raw Sierra beauty, existing infrastructure, and room to grow. Opportunities like this don't come around often--this is alpine land at its absolute finest. Seller financing options available. Rezoning this parcel as General Forest would unlock substantial utility, including the capacity for eight annual events, a secondary residence, additional outbuildings, and short-term rental operations, making this a remarkable opportunity for someone looking for a unique retreat and a commercial enterprise.
