Montana Cabin on 20.27 Acres located in Montana’s famed Elkhorn Mountains. This property is bordered on three sides by the National Forest! The Cabin has that old-school Montana cabin charm. When you walk in, you notice the woodstove, the vaulted ceilings, and the loft. This cabin has a large kitchen and dining area, which is fantastic for entertaining friends and family. It is set up with a propane refrigerator/freezer and propane lights, just adding to the charm. If you like to drive the back roads and trails on your ATV, there are miles and miles for you to explore right from the front door of the cabin. This property is located in Eagle Basin, which is not far from the Eagle Creek Forest Service Guard Station. Crow Creek flows near the guard station and is a fantastic fishery; hiking up to Crow Creek Falls will be one of the most epic hikes you’ve ever done. Because it is located within the National Forest, you’re going to see Elk, deer, moose, and bears frequently in this area. The property is located in t the Elkhorn Wildlife Area, so the Forest Service closes the access road to all motorized vehicles a few miles from the property from December to May 15th every year for wildlife protection; you can still hike or ski in for a true wilderness experience. You're only about 15 miles from Townsend and the Missouri River and Canyon Ferry Lake. And you're only about 69 miles from Helena, Montana, and about 89 miles from Bozeman, Montana, where there are airports, hardware stores, restaurants, and even more amenities. Just sitting back with a pair of binoculars on the deck and a hot cup of coffee is one of the most relaxing things you can ever imagine. You don’t see cabins on this kind of acreage come for sale very often, especially ones that border the National Forest!

Land in the coveted Elkhorn Mountains of Montana bordering National Forest with a cabin site, elk and deer hunting, bighorn sheep trees, and views. This great 18-acre parcel borders the Helena National Forest. I say "actually" because it’s extremely rare to find land like this out in the Elkhorn Mountains, bordering the National Forest. The Elkhorns are a highly sought-after mountain range because of their big elk and lots of elk. People come from all over to hunt Elkhorns and search for elk sheds in the spring because the elk and the country are so phenomenal. 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. You won’t draw the bull tag very often, but you’ll enjoy seeing and hearing the elk because of it. And there’s plenty of general tag spike and cow elk hunting opportunities in the Elkhorns, along with additional second cow tags you can draw, as well as deer to keep you busy hunting them throughout the season. The property not only borders the National Forest, but you’re way out in it, so you can just take off in any direction and have tens of thousands of acres of National Forest land to hunt, hike, and recreate on. There’s a system of roads throughout the Elkhorns for driving and ATVing, and hiking trails that provide lots and lots of access and opportunities. It’s an outdoorsman’s dream come true. The Elkhorn Mountains are so picturesque, with their rolling topography and open parks framed by expansive 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. You’re up high where the views go on for miles and miles. 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 you like the most. Or you can simply pull in your camper and enjoy the weekends and your new Montana mountain property instantly. Invite your friends so they can enjoy it too and see what a great place you were lucky enough to buy in the Elkhorn Mountains. They’ll be jealous for sure. The property is accessible by semi-rough 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. So this is not a year-round property. 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 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, both of which have even more amenities and their own 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. This is one of those rare opportunities you won’t want to regret missing, so don’t wait because it won’t last long.

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 below the property. The gate is locked every year and closed to all motorized use, including snowmobiles, from December 2nd to May 15th to provide elk, deer, and other wildlife with security 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 to eat out.

This is the rare recreational parcel where the hard, expensive groundwork is already done: ELECTRICITY is on site and an established domestic well (137' deep, 10 GPM, static level 35') is in place — leaving you free to dream, build, and settle in. The land unfolds as a private green meadow cradled between timbered mountain slopes. Wake to birdsong and watch deer, elk, and wild turkey move through the draw at first and last light. A greenhouse/shed conveys, and a level, power-ready building area means your dream cabin, full-time home, or off-grid basecamp can take shape on YOUR timeline. With no zoning and no covenants, the possibilities are wide open — a hunting retreat, a quiet getaway, a working homestead, or a launch point for endless backcountry adventure.

The public lands of the Big Belt Mountains put hunting, fishing, hiking, and snowmobiling out your door. Canyon Ferry Lake offers boating, walleye, and trout fishing, while the Missouri River and downtown Townsend are only minutes away. Helena's airport, dining, and amenities keep you connected without sacrificing the solitude you came for.
