14 Acres of Montana land with a creek in the middle of the National Forest, located in the Elkhorn Mountains, with a cabin site already installed, elk and deer hunting, incredible views, camping, ATVing, and more. It’s extremely rare to find land like this way out in the National Forest in the Elkhorn Mountains, and it has Indian Creek running through it. There’s a leveled site so you can pull your camper in and start enjoying the creek and the views immediately, while you make plans to build that cabin in the mountains you’ve always wanted. Make sure you build it with lots of windows and face them towards the distant views of the mountains, parks, and overlooking Indian Creek. And be sure to build a big deck so you can sit out and listen to the babbling of the creek while the elk bugle in the fall and watch the sunsets over the Rocky Mountains. There’s already a leveled site to build, so it’s ready to start planning and building your new Montana mountain cabin whenever you are. Or bring up that wall tent or camper and have that place on the Elkhorn Mountains of your very own that you and your family can enjoy and pass down through the generations. What a feeling to know you’ve always got a place in the mountains to go get away, relax, and get back to nature; that’s all yours. This property sits way out in the National Forest, where you can go in any direction and hunt, hike, and enjoy the tens of thousands of acres of National Forest all around you. It’s like you’re buying a whole lot more land with all this extra easily accessible National Forest right out your front door that’s yours to enjoy as well, any time you take a notion. There are trails to hike, roads to drive on ATV, elk and deer to hunt, mountains to be climbed, and places to be explored, and it’s all close by within minutes of your new property in the mountains. It’s such an amazing bonus to have all this extra National Forest land right at your fingertips; you just can’t go wrong. The Elkhorn Mountains are renowned in Montana for their elk. They are plentiful, and the bulls grow big here in the Elkhorns, which is why the limited bull elk hunting tags are so coveted. This is a special hunting district in Montana that’s designed specifically to grow mature bull elk. So, owning property here in the Elkhorns, you’re sure to see and hear them while you’re out getting away from civilization, staying on your new property in the mountains. Set up your spotting scope and glass the elk while they graze in the open parks before heading into the timber-covered hillsides for the day. If you want to hunt them, apply for the Hunting District 380 bull elk tag, which is extremely hard to draw. But in the meantime, you can also hunt for spike bulls and cow elk on your general elk tag, as well as apply for second cow elk tags, since the elk are so numerous. And don’t forget about all the deer and bear hunting as well. The Elkhorns are full of wildlife. The property is a true off-the-grid recreational property, with no power nearby and a seasonally closed gate near the National Forest boundary about 3 miles away. The gate is locked up every year and closed to all motorized use of any kind, including snowmobiles, from December 2nd to May 15th to provide security for the elk, deer, and other wildlife on their winter range. However, as a private property owner, a permit to use the road during that time period when it’s closed can be obtained from the National Forest for very limited use. The road is pretty much snowed in during those winter months anyway, so just plan on returning to your property in the mountains in May as spring brings new growth and new life to the Elkhorns. Bring your 4-wheel drive too, as the road is semi-rough and you’ll have to take it slow with any campers or trailers you decide to bring into the property. And bring your horses and ride the mountains right from your place. You’re only about 15 miles back down the drainage to the pavement at Townsend, Montana, so it’s not far when you’re ready to head home or go to town for supplies, gas, or eat out. From there, it’s only about 35 miles north to Helena, Montana, and about 65 miles south to Bozeman, Montana, where there are international airports and even more amenities. And Canyon Ferry Lake and the Missouri River are only about 15 miles away near Townsend as well, for great fishing, floating, and fun on the water. This great Montana property has what almost everybody is looking for, with the creek out in the National Forest, with its cabin site, wildlife, hunting, and views, and that’s not to mention being a rare find out in the Elkhorn Mountains. Your family and friends will be glad you didn’t let this opportunity slip away.

52 +/- acres of Montana property for sale that is bordered on all sides by public lands! This property actually consists of 3 individual properties that are all adjoining each other. There are multiple building site locations on these properties that have some of the most amazing Montana views you’ve ever seen! That’s not all, this property doesn’t have restrictions such as covenants or a homeowners' association, so you can build the cabin that you’ve always dreamed of, no matter what your plan is. This property is located in Montana’s Elkhorn Mountains, which are known for having tremendous Elk herds with massive bulls. This area is also well known for having a lot of bighorn sheep, mule deer, Whitetail deer, and moose. This is the kind of property where you would build a seasonal cabin, as it’s not year-round accessible because the forest service closes the road from December through May 15 to all motorized vehicles. The forest service road is known as Badger Creek Road and is a semi-rough road that requires a four-wheel-drive vehicle. This road is closed to protect the abundant wildlife and gives the large herds of elk a place to winter without being disturbed. With that being said, if you’ve ever dreamed of having your own place in the mountains where you can go trophy elk horn shed hunting, this is the place for you. Even though the gate is closed, it’s a pretty short trek by snowshoe or cross-country skis to the property, which is only approximately a mile from the gate. So, you still have access in the winter, but you have to do it via leg power. The property is only about 15 miles from Townsend, where you can get all the supplies you would ever need. And the property is approximately 35 miles from Helena and only 65 miles from Bozeman, Montana.

The Elkhorns are also known for having a tremendous trail system, you could spend days hiking through the adjacent national forest, exploring the Elkhorn Mountains. In fact, there’s so much public property that you could probably never cover it all in one lifetime. The Eagle Creek guard station, which is managed by the national forest, is not far away and is always fun to visit. Also, Crow Creek and Crow Creek Falls are nearby. Both offer amazing views and fantastic creek fishing. This is a fantastic opportunity to own multiple pieces of property that are all bordered by public land in the Elkhorn Mountains.

This great 18 acres of land actually borders National Forest land on the Helena National Forest. I say actually because it’s extremely rare to find land like this out in the Elkhorn Mountains that borders the National Forest. The Elkhorns are a highly sought-after mountain range because of their big elk and lots of elk. This is one of those unique opportunities to own land in the Elkhorn Mountains that you’ll look back on for decades to come and be glad you seized the opportunity to buy this property. The elk get so big here, and they’re so well-known because the bull tags are on a limited draw, and they’re hard to get. This allows the age structure to be higher, the bulls to be bigger, and there can be more of them than on regular public land. That’s all part of what makes the shed hunting in the spring so good, too. The property not only borders the National Forest but you’re way out in the National Forest so you can just take off in literally any direction and have tens of thousands of acres of National Forest lands to hunt, hike, and recreate on. There’s a system of roads throughout the Elkhorns for driving and ATVing and trails to hike that provide for lots and lots of access and opportunities. The Elkhorn Mountains are so picturesque with their rolling topography and open parks framed by all their expanses of forested hillsides. There are fantastic views of the Elkhorns and that’s not to mention the distant mountain peaks of other Montana mountain ranges like the Bridger Mountains and the Tobacco Root Mountains. There’s an amazing elevated building and camping site that’s already been leveled in the trees with rock formations right behind it, and a really old relic car body left right where it quit chugging decades ago, that makes this site extremely unique. It’s ready to build that cabin in the mountains you always dreamed of. You can point those picture windows in the direction of the views. Or you can simply pull in your camper and enjoy the weekends and your new Montana mountain property instantly. The property is accessible by Forest Service roads in the summer and fall, and the roads are gated and closed to motorized use from December 2nd to May 15th every year to keep from disturbing critical wildlife winter range. Service controlled gate sits about 3 miles further down the Indian Creek drainage. That’s close enough you could certainly hike, snowshoe, or ski in to visit your cabin and enjoy the solitude during the winter months.

The Forest Service controlled gate sits about 3 miles further down the Indian Creek drainage. That’s close enough you could certainly hike, snowshoe, or ski in to visit your cabin and enjoy the solitude during the winter months too. The property is primarily snowed in when the gates are closed anyway, so simply plan on a prime recreational property for use during the glorious summer and fall months in the Elkhorns. You’ll certainly yearn to return every May and start enjoying once again as the snow melts and the grass greens back up, along with the mountain flowers popping up every year. Being way out in the National Forest, this is an off the grid property with no power close by. But the property sits only about 15 miles west of Townsend, Montana on dirt and gravel roads, so it’s not far to head back to town for supplies and gas whenever you want. And Canyon Ferry with all its great fishing and water sports is right there at Townsend too along with fishing and floating on the Missouri River. Helena, Montana is only about 35 miles further north from Townsend and Bozeman, Montana is about 65 miles south which both have even more amenities and their international airports along with more of the best hunting and fishing opportunities Montana has to offer. It’s an amazing location and a great place to own your piece of Montana heaven.
