2,535 Acres in Grand View, ID - $3,900,000

Deep Creek Ranch

Located in the heart of the Owyhee Uplands 50 miles southwest of the farming community of Grand View, Deep Creek Ranch is a highly productive, seasonal cattle grazing operation that features 2,535+/- deeded acres in ten individual parcels of land surrounded by two Bureau of Land Management (BLM) grazing allotments permitted to the ranch and an associated State of Idaho grazing lease. The ranch's deeded parcels are strategically positioned within the grazing allotments and control water sources and access points.

The Owyhee Uplands (or simply the "Owyhees") is an immense, sparsely populated region spanning portions of Idaho, Nevada, and Oregon, where sheer canyon walls swell to broad sagebrush plateaus and juniper-covered hills that roll across one of the largest intact and undeveloped expanses of public land remaining in the Lower 48.

The only building improvements on the ranch are two off-grid cow camps, each with a small cabin and horse pen. These camps provide basic living accommodations during the grazing and hunting seasons and are situated on separate deeded tracts connected by an internal ranch road. A set of loading corrals is located along the county road linking the ranch with Grand View and Jordan Valley, Oregon, to the northwest.

The ranch supports abundant big game, including elk, mule deer, and antelope, as well as upland birds and a host of non-games species. Deep Creek, Pole Creek, and Dickshooter Creek, all part of the Owyhee River system, offer fishing opportunities for native redband trout and introduced smallmouth bass. Because of its size, the ranch qualifies for landowner appreciation program tags for controlled hunts in highly coveted unit 42.
