Badger Creek Rd, Townsend, MT 59644

52 +/- acres of Montana property for sale that is bordered on all sides by public lands! This property actually consists of 3 individual properties that are all adjoining each other. There are multiple building site locations on these properties that have some of the most amazing Montana views you’ve ever seen! That’s not all, this property doesn’t have restrictions such as covenants or a homeowners' association, so you can build the cabin that you’ve always dreamed of, no matter what your plan is. This property is located in Montana’s Elkhorn Mountains, which are known for having tremendous Elk herds with massive bulls. This area is also well known for having a lot of bighorn sheep, mule deer, Whitetail deer, and moose. This is the kind of property where you would build a seasonal cabin, as it’s not year-round accessible because the forest service closes the road from December through May 15 to all motorized vehicles. The forest service road is known as Badger Creek Road and is a semi-rough road that requires a four-wheel-drive vehicle. This road is closed to protect the abundant wildlife and gives the large herds of elk a place to winter without being disturbed. With that being said, if you’ve ever dreamed of having your own place in the mountains where you can go trophy elk horn shed hunting, this is the place for you. Even though the gate is closed, it’s a pretty short trek by snowshoe or cross-country skis to the property, which is only approximately a mile from the gate. So, you still have access in the winter, but you have to do it via leg power. The property is only about 15 miles from Townsend, where you can get all the supplies you would ever need. And the property is approximately 35 miles from Helena and only 65 miles from Bozeman, Montana. If fishing is one of your favorite pastimes, Canyon Ferry Lake and the Missouri River are both approximately 15 miles away. Canyon Ferry is known for fantastic trout and walleye fishing and a few huge pike! The Elkhorns are also known for having a tremendous trail system, you could spend days hiking through the adjacent national forest, exploring the Elkhorn Mountains. In fact, there’s so much public property that you could probably never cover it all in one lifetime.
