Property Features

Located on the north end of Flathead Lake, this farm has panoramic views of the lake and mountain ranges surrounding the Flathead Valley.  The property has a common boundary for approximately 1 mile with a waterfowl production area that adjoins the lake.  This lake is not only one of the most beautiful lakes in the country, it is also the largest natural fresh water lake west of the Mississippi River. 

Centrally located in the Flathead Valley this farm is only a short distance to Bigfork and Kalispell, MT, the west entrance to Glacier National Park, the Jewel Basin, the Mission Mountains Wilderness and the Bob Marshal Wilderness Complex.  Over 1 million acres within the Flathead National Forest has been dedicated as Wilderness areas.  These areas comprise about 46% of the Forest's total land base. The Bob Marshal Wilderness Complex consists of 1,009,256 acres. The area follows the Continental Divide about 60 miles from north to south and contains varying elevations of 5,000 to over 9,000 feet. 
Migrating geese, ducks and trumpeter swans visit the farm with some of them living on the farm or nearby year-round.  The Flathead is home to elk, white tail deer, mule deer, black bear, moose and even grizzly bears.  Whether you are an avid hunter, photographer, or just enjoy viewing, there are plenty of wild animals in the Flathead.

There is also plenty of great fishing available close to the farm; lake fishing in Flathead Lake and the hundreds of mountain lakes or stream and river fishing.  Bull Trout, Rainbow Trout, Mackinaw (Lake) Trout, Westslope Cutthroat Trout, Brook Trout, Kokanee, Largemouth Bass, Smallmouth Bass, Northern Pike, Yellow Perch and Mountain Whitefish can all be found within fifty miles of the farm. 

A turn-of-the-century, post and beam barn enhances the grandeur of this prime property.  Originally built and used as a dairy barn, this barn has weathered well and is still a solid building.  A couple other older out buildings are located on the property. 

Continue to farm the land in irrigated alfalfa or wheat or turn it into one of the most spectacular horse ranches the valley has ever seen.  The possibilities are endless for this 247 acre parcel with no zoning.  A great part of western Montana to place in a conservation easement.
