Homes Under $500,000 in Woodland, Utah

Woodland is a small ranching and cabin community tucked along the Provo River in the upper Kamas Valley, about 15 minutes east of Kamas on SR-35. At elevations near 6,500 feet, winters are real — expect snow on the ground from late November into March — and summers run cool and dry, which is exactly why second-home buyers from the Wasatch Front have been quietly buying here for decades. The challenge for anyone shopping under $500K is supply. Most Woodland parcels are an acre or larger, land values have climbed sharply since 2020, and a finished single-family home in the area now typically lists in the $700Ks and up. What does show up below the half-million mark tends to be building lots, older A-frame cabins, manufactured homes on acreage, or the occasional fixer in one of the river-adjacent subdivisions.

If you're open to a lot-plus-build strategy or a cabin that needs work, Woodland still offers something the Park City side of the hill doesn't: lower Wasatch County property taxes, genuine elbow room, and quick access to the Uinta-Wasatch-Cache National Forest, Jordanelle Reservoir, and the Mirror Lake Highway. Kamas handles groceries and schools, Heber and Park City handle bigger needs, and Salt Lake is roughly an hour out. Listings move quickly when they're priced right, so it helps to have financing or cash positioning ready before something interesting hits.

Common questions

About homes under $500k in Woodland.

Are there many homes under $500K in Woodland?

Inventory at this price point is thin. Woodland is a small unincorporated community in the Kamas Valley, and most listings are acreage parcels, cabins, or full-size homes that trade well above $500K. When something does come in under that mark, it's usually a smaller cabin, a manufactured home on land, or a building lot — so the active list shifts week to week.

What kind of property can I realistically get for under $500K here?

Expect to look at vacant lots in subdivisions like Woodland Estates or Mountain Top Estates, older cabins needing updates, or modest manufactured homes on an acre or two. A finished stick-built home under $500K is rare in the 84036 ZIP these days given Summit and Wasatch County land values.

How far is Woodland from Park City and Heber?

Woodland sits along the Provo River on SR-35, roughly 15 minutes from Kamas, 25 minutes to Park City's Old Town, and about 20 minutes to Heber. Salt Lake International is around an hour via Parley's Canyon or Provo Canyon depending on weather.

Is Woodland in Summit or Wasatch County?

Most of Woodland is in Wasatch County, which generally means lower property tax rates than neighboring Summit County. School-age kids attend Wasatch County School District, with the high school in Heber City.

Are lots and cabins under $500K usually on well and septic?

Yes. Woodland is rural and properties typically run on private wells and septic systems rather than municipal utilities. If you're shopping a cabin or lot, budget for a well inspection, septic certification, and confirm water rights are deeded with the parcel.

Can I use a cabin under $500K as a short-term rental?

Short-term rental rules depend on the specific subdivision's CC&Rs and Wasatch County zoning. Some Woodland-area HOAs allow nightly rentals, others require 30-day minimums. Always pull the CC&Rs and check current county ordinances before assuming Airbnb income.
