Beautiful Osprey Island is an approximately 32.64 acre island on the Kootenai River located 7 miles below the Canadian border and 19 miles north of the town of Bonners Ferry, Idaho. This very private island, which sits higher than surrounding farmland, is a mixture of native organic grasses, untouched for over 80 years, and many tall mature trees. Abundant wildlife is in the area. The island, at one time, had an acre+ pond, which can be restored for fish and numerous types of birds to enjoy. The deep, still running river surrounding the island has many fishing holes, with one on the south end that is 80-100 feet deep, making it home for sturgeon and many other types of fish. This very beautiful island has a few old heritage apple trees which could be possibly be brought back into production. There is an old settler's cabin on the Northern end of the island. Island comes with deeded access on west bank and also a convenient concrete boat launch 1 mile north, plus approximately 13 acres of included land that functions as access on the east side of the island. These 13 acres are currently leased to a local farmer and growing in alfalfa. Electricity is available nearby. This property is very near NATURE CONSERVANCY properties and the old growth forests of historic Long's Canyon. Numerous trailheads into the Purcell mountains are just a few miles away.
