If you are searching for an amazing opportunity to own a turnkey fishing lodge to host clients, friends, or family…look no further.  There are two beautifully appointed structures ready for immediate use, fully furnished, and spacious enough to entertain 18-20 guests. Situated in the upper Missouri River’s famed blue-ribbon trout waters and the Big Belt Mountains awaits this striking estate.  The 3,684 square foot main lodge boasts an amazing great room, a bright and airy sunroom, a gourmet kitchen, fly tying nook, laundry room, and a generous 3.5 baths and 4 bedrooms to comfortably host 12+ guests.  It also has over 2600 sq feet of deck space for gatherings or for you to enjoy a morning coffee or frosty beverage after returning from your day’s float, hike, or hunting trip. The caretaker’s home (upper house) has approximately 2,240 sq feet and two levels of living space. Upstairs is an open concept kitchen, dining room, and living room, a ½ bath, and master bedroom and ensuite with double sinks and soaking tub. Downstairs includes a spacious family room, a bedroom, two bonus rooms, and a laundry room. The views from the 1200+ sq foot deck are one of a kind and take advantage of the higher elevation.  There is also a three-car oversized detached garage to store your toys and vehicles.

Many great adventures have started and ended at Scenic Valley Lodge.  The owners built and loved this property for many years.  Countless memories have been made during floating adventures that originated just upriver at Wolf Creek or Craig and culminated at one of many nearby takeouts. This size and ferocity of the rainbow and brown trout along this stretch of river is very well known.  It is estimated that there are between 5K and 6K trout per mile of river in this stretch according to fish and game biologist’s numbers.  This area of Montana has so much to offer. 

Social gatherings are common at the lodge, with enough room for live music and open areas and decks for entertaining. The lodge is located in-between Helena (50 Minutes) and Great Falls (45 Minutes).  Both of which offer multiple flights per day at their international/regional airports. Additionally, Cascade is only a short 17-minute drive and offers many daily amenities such as groceries, fuel, and restaurants.  Hundreds of thousands of public recreational acres are located in the local vicinity as well.  Whether you enjoy hunting, hiking, biking, skiing, ATV/horse riding, rock climbing, or just about any other outdoor activity you can find it here. 

Scenic Valley Lodge has historically been shared with private guests, and business associates of the family, but is offered as an untapped resource for a savvy business entrepreneur.  There have been many updates and the current owners have meticulously kept the property to the highest of standards.
