Pine Creek Ranch is a beautiful mountain ranch set in a stunning and picturesque valley in a pristine location surrounded by national forest land and other ranch properties protected by conservation easements, preserving the landscape into the future. With minimal improvements, this beautiful ranch offers rustic charm and an idyllic setting. This ranch is an ideal Western Montana retreat with various timber throughout the ranch, including pines and firs and lovely aspens and willows along the creek bottomlands.

Within minutes, anglers will enjoy fly fishing on Ninemile Creek, which slices through the valley adjacent to the ranch. The Clark Fork River, another favorite for fly and float fishing, is also a short drive. In addition, the region is known for world-class big-game hunting on the ranch and in the nearby national forest for popular big-game species, including elk and deer.

Pine Creek, a classic mountain stream, is a tributary to the Clark Fork River and flows through the ranch for approximately a half mile, providing cool, clean waters year-round to wildlife that call the ranch and region home. Pine Creek Ranch is the perfect opportunity for a discerning buyer seeking a peaceful retreat in a pristine environment, with the potential to replace the existing home with a custom cabin or full-time residence; this ranch offers a canvas for a buyer in search of an ideal legacy property to enjoy for years to come.

Surrounded by other ranches protected by conservation easements, the Pine Creek Ranch is sure to remain a location valued for its unchanged scenery and surroundings while providing valued outdoor recreation, making this a rare find for outdoor enthusiasts, anglers, and hunters alike.
