About this property

Nestled in the heart of Montana ranch country near Grant, the Coyote Creek Ranch encompasses 2,802± deeded acres surrounded by breathtaking views of the Pioneer Mountains. Steeped in history, this region of Horse Prairie is where the Lewis and Clark Expedition met Sacagawea's Lemhi Shoshone people in 1805--an area long valued for its open grasslands, water, and early ranching heritage. Coyote Creek Ranch is a rare combination of productivity, recreation, and beauty. The property features abundant live water from Coyote, Jensen, and Lodgepole Creeks, plus a well-stocked trout pond. Approximately 770± acres are irrigable, providing fertile meadows for hay and grazing. Sub-irrigated and flood-irrigated bottoms are lined with aspens, meandering creeks, and rich wildlife habitat. The ranch also includes valuable grazing leases on adjoining USFS, State, and BLM lands. Conservation Easement.
