The cabin in the woods was a perfect fit for Dale and Jaydeen Ortman, when they first saw it back in 2004.
“We fell in love with this place and it fit with retirement. So we simply stayed,” said Dale Ortman.
They purchased the cabin under a “recreational cabin” program that allows people to own cabins on forest service land. They own the structure, but not the dirt.
