River Hunt Retreat
Hysham, MTThis 178± acre ranch is located on the Yellowstone River and is one hour east of Billings. Waterfowl, deer, turkey, and pheasant are abundant.
The 1,404± acre Muddy Creek Headquarters is the central portion of the 2,217± acre Muddy Creek Ranch. The headquarters enjoys a dramatically beautiful setting on the west side of the Shields Valley between the communities of Wilsall and Sedan. The ease of access to the town of Livingston to the southeast and Bridger Bowl Ski Resort and Bozeman to the southwest makes this quiet, ranching community a highly coveted location. A grass-fed beef operation specializing in American Aberdeen cattle, Muddy Creek uses regenerative agricultural practices to produce nutrient-dense, grass-finished beef.
A primary feature of the ranch is its irrigation rights, with an abundance of early priority rights supplying five pivots covering 570± acres, plus additional flood irrigated acres. Additional water features include approximately two miles of Muddy Creek and two ponds. The ranch headquarters has efficient, well-constructed livestock facilities spanning over 30,000 square feet, with steel indoor and outdoor pens, an indoor heated chute, and a vet room. There are two separate building areas along Highway 86, including a ranch residence and entertainment barn, bull pen facilities, and one additional residential building site. The Sedan Pasture unit is also available, lying three and a half miles west of the headquarters and totaling 814± deeded acres. The Sedan Pasture has no structural improvements, one building envelope within the eased acreage, plus a 20-acre unencumbered parcel.
