Built above a two-car garage, the guest quarters are perfect for visiting family and friends and features its own full bath, kitchenette, and 360-degree views. An additional two-vehicle log garage provides more space for toys and ranch implements.
Deeded acreage on both sides of the river and nearly 1500 feet of river frontage, without another home in sight, offers privacy and world-class dry-fly fishing opportunities for native Westslope Cutthroat trout. River features on the property include excellent fishing and swimming holes and access to miles of wilderness wade-fishing, both upstream and down. Rarely, if ever, does a single property feature so many desirables -- picturesque privacy amongst the wildlife, excellent recreational opportunities, productive pasture with old priority water rights, and a location in a historic Montana Valley.
