Homes with Acreage for Sale in Gooseberry, Utah
Gooseberry sits at roughly 7,000 feet in the high country between Fish Lake and Salina Canyon, about three hours south of Salt Lake and an hour east of Richfield. It's a seasonal mountain community where most properties trade in acreage rather than square footage — five, ten, twenty-acre parcels backing up to Fishlake National Forest, with aspen stands, meadows, and ATV access straight off the property. Buyers shopping acreage here are usually after a cabin, a hunting base camp for the Plateau and Boulder units, or a summer retreat away from the Wasatch Front heat. Year-round residency is rare; the road in (Gooseberry Road / FR-640 off I-70 exit 71) typically closes with snow from late November into May, and most cabins run on propane, wells or hauled water, and septic.
Pricing depends heavily on improvements and road access. Raw acreage with a stubbed power line can run well under six figures, while finished cabins on ten-plus acres with a producing well and outbuildings push into the $400K–$700K range. Acreage parcels here aren't suburban "lots" — expect dirt roads, HOA or co-op water systems on some tracts, and CC&Rs that often allow horses, RVs, and outbuildings. If you want quiet, dark skies, elk in the meadow at dusk, and a base for fishing Fish Lake or hunting the Manti, this pocket delivers it without Park City pricing.

Common questions
About homes with acreage in Gooseberry.
Is Gooseberry a year-round community or seasonal? ▾
It's almost entirely seasonal. The county and forest service don't plow Gooseberry Road past a certain point, so most owners use their cabins from late May through October and access in winter by snowmobile. A handful of properties closer to the highway can be reached year-round with the right vehicle.
What size acreage parcels are typical in Gooseberry? ▾
Most subdivisions in the area were platted in 5-, 10-, and 20-acre tracts, with some larger ranch-style holdings of 40+ acres bordering Fishlake National Forest. Smaller half-acre cabin lots exist in a few of the older recorded plats but are less common.
Do Gooseberry acreage properties have culinary water and power? ▾
It varies parcel by parcel. Some tracts are served by a shared water co-op or community well, others require a private well or hauled water cistern. Grid power reaches many of the developed subdivisions, but off-grid solar setups are also common on the more remote acreage.
Can I run horses or livestock on Gooseberry acreage? ▾
Most CC&Rs in the area permit horses and limited livestock given the parcel sizes, and the surrounding national forest has grazing allotments. Check the specific subdivision covenants before closing — a few of the cabin-focused plats restrict livestock to horses only.
How does hunting access work from a Gooseberry property? ▾
Gooseberry falls within the Manti and Fishlake hunt units, both strong for elk, mule deer, and turkey. Many owners use their acreage as a base camp during the rifle and archery hunts, with national forest accessible directly from most parcels. Tags are draw-only for several species, so plan ahead.
What should I budget for ongoing costs on a Gooseberry cabin? ▾
Beyond property taxes (Sevier County rates are low), expect annual HOA or road maintenance dues of $200–$800, propane fills, septic pumping every few years, and winterization labor if you're not doing it yourself. Insurance can run higher than valley homes due to wildfire exposure.
