The home was called Golganooza and was often used for pageants, gatherings, hippie pot lucks and many dances. The house was owned by poet and artist, Aethelred Eldridge, University art professor and local spiritual leader. The home features hardwood floors, art murals, wood ceilings and exposed log walls. There are several outbuildings on the property and it is close to hiking. Two bedrooms, one bathroom and 1,818 square feet. $289,000
