Retreat to arguably one of the most beautiful "undiscovered" locations in the American West. Tucked away in the foothills of the scenic Bighorn Mountains, this ranch totals 650 acres m/l, with 160 deeded acres plus an adjoining 500+ acre BLM permit.
Two forks of beautiful tree-lined Otter Creek emerge from adjacent canyons, flowing through the irrigated and sub-irrigated meadows. Early water rights provide an abundance of irrigation water for the meadows.
Improvements include the beautiful main lodge and residence located in a sweeping bend of the creek with stunning views through the large windows of the great room. Adjacent recreation building and private guest accommodations are near the main lodge, ideal for family gatherings or a corporate retreat. There are plenty of barns, sheds, and garages for your horses, ATVs, vehicles and other recreational toys.
The private fishpond fed by a spring and flowing artesian wells adorns the landscaped grounds. In a private location, this ranch is a haven for mule deer and a variety of game birds and water fowl in addition to a trout fisherman's paradise.
Views of the surrounding mountain ranges, canyon walls and crimson sandrock bluffs are stunning. Entirely surrounded by State and BLM public lands, you have access to over five miles of fishing, hiking or horseback riding, (most of which is private) in the unique canyons which adjoin the property as well as nearly 12,000 acres of adjoining public lands. The North Fork Ranch is worthy of inspection by anyone desiring an exceptional recreational ranch experience.
