The ranch offers a ton of ground, just under 4,000 acres, for you and bird dogs to work. Bird populations are plentiful here, plus habitat is varied and amenable for wildlife. The ranch is uniquely situated to offer grassland and open space near the lower areas of the ranch, while the upper areas consist of more mountainous timber and draws.

Opportunity for pheasants and huns, with grouse as well on the upper roads/paths in the high ground.

The Flathead Reservation has specific hunting regulations. Take a look at this link for a start on what's required to legally hunt our ranch: Flathead Reservation Hunting Regulations

Right in the middle of upland bird country, our ranch and remodeled homestead cabin are nestled in the Big Bend West of the Flathead River on the Flathead Indian Reservation. The cabin has 2 bedrooms plus a loft with a bed and a privacy curtain. It also has an unattached guest room. The cabin does NOT have a landline or wifi, but there is cell service, although the weather can limit this at times. There is a corral for guests to use if they would like to bring their own horses. This ranch is home to black bears, mule deer and about 600 head of elk. Guests will have access to explore the entire ranch and enjoy amazing views of wildlife in their natural setting as well as some old homestead sites. While this is not a "dude ranch" it is a working ranch with everything done on horseback and the family would welcome you to observe the different activities that take place day to day. Branding season, gathering and sorting are especially great opportunities for photography. This "off the grid" vacation cabin is a dream destination for bird watchers and photographers. There have been returning great horned owls. It is also located right in the heart of a diligently maintained Mountain Blue Bird Trail. Along the 20 mile road to town, enjoy amazing views of the Flathead river as it cuts through the sheared off clay banks. Just 8 miles to the Flathead River fishing access Sloan's Bridge, this is also a popular put-in and take-out spot for rafters. Our guests find we are a perfect proximity to all of the attractions in the Flathead. Spend a day at the Bison Range and then another at Glacier Park. Make sure you check out the fishing and recreating on Flathead lake as well. 

Traveling from Yellowstone to Glacier? We are the perfect stopping point between these 2 amazing national parks. The cabin is fully furnished and equipped with a dishwasher, coffee maker, microwave, full size fridge/freezer, stove and bbq grill. It has all the bedding and towels and dishes needed for our guests. It includes a washer and dryer as well. Peaceful and remote. This cabin is a photographer's dream. 7 miles from a boat launch on the Flathead river, a popular fishing and floating access. 20 miles from the small, unique town of Hot Springs, "home of the healing waters." The town has several bath houses fed with the natural hot mineral water. As our guests, you will have acess to almost anywhere on the ranch to enjoy the beauty it has to offer. This is truly a rare experience to create lasting memories for you and your family.

The space

Be prepared to enjoy wildlife and observe the ranching experience. Our family is happy to show you around the main yard to see the animals in the corrals and answer questions about cattle ranching and the beef industry.

Guest access

We encourage our guests to explore as much of the ranch as they would like. Some areas may be limited depending on where the cattle are grazing at the time. Motorized vehicles must stay on the roads, but hiking is almost limitless. The guests also have use of a small corral at the cabin if they have their own horses.
