Description
Rock Creek Farm at Fort Peck, 2,750± deeded acres in 18 parcels, is contiguous to thousands of acres of Bureau of Land Management (BLM) land, which connects to State land, Fort Peck Recreation Area, and Charles M. Russell (CMR) National Wildlife Refuge. In addition to the deeded ground, there is a BLM lease totaling 2,680± acres and nearly 600 AUMs. This farm is less than ten miles east of Fort Peck Lake/Reservoir, one of the largest bodies of water in Montana with over 1,520 miles of shoreline, longer than the California coast. There are over 45 different fish species in Fort Peck Lake, including multiple state record fish. A mix of rolling plains, badlands, and river valleys characterizes the topography around this area. Nestled within this ranch's picturesque surroundings, you'll find an abundance of healthy grass and an expansive 700± acres of winter wheat thoughtfully sown throughout the land, providing both sustenance and stunning scenery. From numerous vantage points across the property's coal-stripped outcroppings, panoramic views stretch endlessly. Where the pheasants, deer, and antelope play today, dinosaurs roamed millions of years ago, and their remains have been found throughout the area. This area is renowned for excellent hunting for deer and antelope, with very strong numbers of upland game birds, especially pheasants. From ridge lines to rolling grasslands and wheat fields to timbered coulees and picturesque rock formations, this property is everything an outdoor enthusiast seeks. Just half an hour from Fort Peck Dam and 10± miles from Rock Creek Marina, it is easy to imagine summer days spent on Fort Peck Lake, casting to walleyes, smallmouth bass, northern pike, lake trout, and Chinook salmon, and autumn spent hunting on the property and on the thousands of acres of contiguous public land.
