Description
Nestled in the heart of Montana, just 20 minutes from the charming and vibrant community of Lewistown, the Otaktay Ranch is far more than a recreational retreat—it is a rare opportunity to own a fantastic piece of real estate in one of the state's most coveted regions. This extraordinary ranch offers privacy, prestige, and a deep connection to the land, spanning diverse terrain, rich in natural resources and untamed beauty.
Strategically located near the geographic center of Montana, the ranch lies within the renowned HD Unit 411—an area celebrated for its exceptional big game hunting. Trophy elk and mule deer are frequent visitors, underscoring the property's location in the 411 unit as a premier destination for serious sportsmen. In addition, black bears, antelope, coyotes, and upland birds make their home here, creating a thriving ecosystem.
South McDonald Creek winds through the property year-round, sustaining wildlife and livestock. In its deeper pools, anglers may find the opportunity to try for small but eager native trout. Adding to the land’s appeal is direct access to a full section of landlocked State of Montana land, significantly expanding your usable footprint and providing exclusive recreational access to the owner and two other neighbors.
Built in 2007, the log home is thoughtfully sited into the base of the property's highest ridge, offering panoramic views of the Snowy Mountains. Accessed by a welcoming overhead ranch entrance that proudly bears the name “Otaktay”—a Native American word meaning "kills many," in honor of a skilled hunter—the residence offers 1,273 square feet of warm, rustic comfort. The home is fully turnkey with two bedrooms, two full baths, a loft for additional sleeping space, a well-appointed kitchen, and an inviting porch. It includes all furnishings, appliances, décor, and taxidermy.
A detached 780-square-foot two-car shop with guest quarters above provides additional living space, perfect for hosting friends or extended family. With no easements, covenants, or restrictions, the property offers unparalleled flexibility for future use or development.
Otaktay Ranch is not just a place to visit—it’s a place to belong. Whether you’re seeking a private sanctuary, a premier hunting destination, or a long-term investment in Montana land, this unique offering stands in a class of its own.
