FLATHEAD RIVER RANCH<br />
Situated on the banks of the mighty <strong>Flathead</strong> <strong>River</strong> sits <strong>Flathead</strong> <strong>River</strong> <strong>Ranch</strong> - 210±<br />
deeded acres of farm ground, pasture, <strong>and</strong> irrigated hay meadows. In this pastoral<br />
setting in the <strong>Flathead</strong> Valley, the ranch is surrounded by multiple mountain<br />
ranges <strong>and</strong> large farms, while the communities of Kalispell, Bigfork, Whitefish,<br />
<strong>and</strong> Glacier National Park are located only a few minutes’ drive. The ranch is<br />
perfectly positioned to take advantage of all the aspects of a Montana lifestyle.<br />
With a private boat ramp <strong>and</strong> access to the <strong>Flathead</strong> <strong>River</strong>, access to <strong>Flathead</strong> Lake<br />
is an easy nine-mile boat ride. The ranch also provides private access to springfed<br />
Egan Slough on the west boundary, which provides recreational sport fishing<br />
for bass, perch, <strong>and</strong> pike as well as exceptional waterfowl viewing <strong>and</strong> hunting<br />
opportunities. Additionally, the ranch has a regulation skeet <strong>and</strong> trap range <strong>and</strong><br />
an observation tower for wildlife viewing <strong>and</strong> further hunting opportunities. The<br />
signature feature of the ranch is the <strong>Flathead</strong> <strong>River</strong> which me<strong>and</strong>ers in front of<br />
the property to the south. Here, the river is over 200 feet wide <strong>and</strong> over 60 feet<br />
deep with views across the river of the rich riparian forests, much of which is<br />
in conservation easement. There is also a river-side recreation <strong>and</strong> campground<br />
area offering friends <strong>and</strong> family power for travel trailers. The comfortable<br />
improvements on the ranch consist of a 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath, 5,000 square-foot<br />
main ranch home, beautifully remodeled in 2009, <strong>and</strong> a cozy 3-bedroom, 2-bath<br />
guest home. A spacious heated <strong>and</strong> insulated main shop, several outbuildings,<br />
equipment sheds, storage areas, corrals <strong>and</strong> a historic grain elevator make up<br />
the remainder of the headquarters’ improvements. The setting behind the main<br />
home <strong>and</strong> guest home is a manicured l<strong>and</strong>scape along the banks of a spring-fed<br />
creek offering an environment of tranquility <strong>and</strong> peace. Opportunities to enjoy<br />
the ranch are varied with a unique combination of recreational, ranching, <strong>and</strong><br />
farming components. <strong>Flathead</strong> <strong>River</strong> <strong>Ranch</strong>, in this very special Montana location,<br />
will provide much enjoyment to the next fortunate owner.<br />
