Auburn blends open-country living with easy access to Star Valley’s best amenities, offering big skies, mountain silhouettes, and a pace that makes room for both work and weekend. Outdoor time is a daily habit here—residents cast for trout on the Salt River, ride quiet backroads, and head for trailheads in the expansive Bridger-Teton National Forest, managed by the U.S. Forest Service, just to the east. Everyday conveniences, specialty shops, and eateries in nearby Afton, Thayne, and Etna are only minutes away, so errands stay short and evenings can end with sunset strolls or stargazing.
Families value the supportive school network in Lincoln County. Lincoln County School District #2 provides K–12 options known for strong academics, activities, and community spirit, with high schoolers attending Star Valley High School in Afton and younger students served by elementary campuses in Thayne and Etna. Healthcare needs are covered by Star Valley Health’s system in Afton, and golfers and trail lovers find added recreation a short drive away in Star Valley Ranch.
Life in Auburn feels refreshingly roomy—space for gardens, gear, and gatherings—yet connected enough for quick commutes along U.S. 89 and spontaneous weekend adventures in the mountains. Whether you’re seeking a quiet acreage, a tidy starter, or a newer build close to schools, Auburn offers a variety of options in a setting that still feels authentically rural.
