Request Information
Tucked away in a pristine valley just outside of Kalispell, Riley Creek Basin is an exceptional meadow and mountain ranch property consisting of 757.6 deeded acres. The land itself is notably diverse with a blend of rich riparian corridors, mature timber, and productive hay meadows that support both agricultural use and a strong wildlife presence. Accessed by a private road, the ranch delivers outstanding seclusion and a rare balance of scale and versatility in Montana's Flathead Valley. In addition to the deeded acreage, Riley Creek Basin borders 632 acres of otherwise landlocked State ground and includes a grazing lease, effectively expanding the operational footprint while increasing room to explore and recreate. The property is well watered, with flood irrigation and stock water rights complemented by springs and riparian areas that contribute to the property's functionality and long-term usability. Wildlife is a consistent presence, with habitat that supports a wide range of species native and wild to Western Montana. The property is largely unimproved and offers multiple scenic build sites to take advantage of valley and ridgeline views. With no conservation easement and no covenants in place, the property offers a high degree of flexibility, while also presenting a compelling opportunity for a conservation-minded buyer to help maintain and protect the wildlife and open space values found here. Riley Creek Basin checks all the boxes and includes many of the characteristics increasingly difficult to replicate in the Flathead Valley today; productive agricultural potential, exceptional privacy, scenic views, and spectacular wildlife diversity, all with a lack of encumbrances. With a location in a hidden valley, yet convenient to Kalispell and Flathead Valley amenities, this classic ranch property is truly investment grade in nature. For the first time in five generations, Riley Creek Basin is ready for a new owner to write the next chapter.
