Homes Under $300,000 in Scofield, Utah
Scofield sits at roughly 7,600 feet in Carbon County, along Highway 96 above Scofield Reservoir, about 25 miles from Price and a little under two hours from Salt Lake City. It is a small mountain community of cabins, older year-round homes, and a handful of newer builds, so a $300K budget goes further here than it would in Park City or Heber. Many of the homes in this range are modest cabins, manufactured homes on private lots, or vacant parcels with a structure that needs work.
Winters are long and snowy, with heavy snowpack and road access that depends on plowing, so it pays to ask about winter maintenance, heating source, and water. Many properties rely on wells or small water companies and septic or holding-tank systems, which affects financing and inspections. Summers are cool and short, and the draw is Scofield Reservoir fishing, Scofield State Park camping, ATV trails, snowmobiling, and elk and deer hunting in the surrounding Manti-La Sal and Fishlake country. Some owners use these places as weekend retreats, while others live here full time and commute to Price or the Carbon County mines and power sector. Listings turn over slowly because the market is small, so new inventory can move quickly. Browse the active listings below to see what is currently available under $300K.

Common questions
About homes under $300k in Scofield.
What kind of property can I actually get in Scofield for under $300K? ▾
Most listings in this range are small cabins, A-frames, or manufactured homes on recreational lots near Scofield Reservoir. Square footage typically runs 600–1,200 sq ft, often with a sleeping loft rather than separate bedrooms. Raw land parcels also show up under $300K if you'd rather build.
Are these homes livable year-round or just seasonal? ▾
It depends on the specific property. Some cabins in the Mountain View and Pondtown areas are winterized with heated water lines and propane furnaces, but many are summer-only with drained plumbing from October to May. Confirm road maintenance, snow removal, and utility setup before assuming year-round access.
Do Scofield properties typically have HOA fees? ▾
Many of the platted subdivisions around the reservoir do have HOAs, with dues usually in the $200–$600 per year range covering road maintenance, common areas, and sometimes shared water systems. Properties outside the subdivisions on county roads generally don't have HOA fees but also don't get plowed in winter.
How is water and septic handled out there? ▾
Scofield town itself has a small municipal system, but most properties outside the town limits run on private wells or shared community water and individual septic tanks. Have any well tested for flow rate and water quality, and ask for a recent septic inspection — replacements at elevation can run $15K and up.
Can I finance a cabin under $300K in Scofield, or is it a cash market? ▾
Both happen. Conventional and second-home loans work on properties that meet standard requirements — permanent foundation, year-round road access, working utilities. Older cabins, off-grid setups, and manufactured homes on leased land often end up as cash deals or portfolio loans through a local lender like Eastern Utah Community Credit Union.
How often do homes under $300K actually come on the market here? ▾
Scofield is a thin market — sometimes only 5 to 15 properties trade in a full year across all price points. Listings under $300K move fastest in late spring when buyers are gearing up for summer. Setting up an MLS alert is the practical way to catch new inventory before it's gone.
