Lake County - Dayton MT, Dayton, MT
Like the cold, clear waters of Flathead Lake, mystique surrounds Cromwell Island. It overlooks the legendary Wild Horse Island, where Salish and Kootenai historically swam their horses to keep them safe from rival tribes. In the 1930s, construction started on a dam near Polson, Montana, at the outlet of the Flathead River. Prior to its completion, in periods of low water, Cromwell Island became a peninsula connected to the shore. It is all but certain that the Native Americans historically herded their horses onto this peninsula before swimming them across to Wild Horse. Today, Cromwell Island is a full-time island, the entirety of which is now for sale.
Flathead Lake, with almost 200 square miles of surface area and 185 miles of shoreline, is the largest natural freshwater lake west of the Mississippi River - Yes, even bigger than Lake Tahoe! To our knowledge, Cromwell Island, with almost 350 acres and nearly three miles of shoreline, is the largest private island in freshwater west of the Mississippi River that is under a single ownership.
Like Loch Ness, Flathead even has its own monster. While the lore of a huge antlered monster living in the lake is rooted in the ancient oral histories of the Kootenai Tribe, recorded sightings of the creature date back to 1889 when a steamboat captain along with 100 passengers spotted a "whale-like" object on the water that dove after being shot at by one of the passengers. Somewhere along the way, locals dubbed the monster "Flessie", an obvious "hat tip" to her counterpart in Scotland.
Cromwell Island was purchased in the late 1980s by Robert M. Lee, a renowned automobile and antique arms collector, explorer, author, and conservationist. Before his death in 2016, Mr. Lee and his wife, Anne, partially completed construction of a monumental structure including over 45,000 square feet of living space that was to serve as their home full-time. Even in its unfinished state, it has a magnitude of presence reminiscent of Versailles.
The mystique endures as Cromwell Island is now for sale and, with so many possibilities, a new owner will have the opportunity to write the next chapter of a storied place.

Lake County - 45214 Lake Mary Ronan Road, Dayton, MT
Flathead Lake Overlook sits on 1,367 acres and features an original 1912 farmhouse. The house sits to the west of Flathead Lake overlooking Cromwell Island and the Mission Mountains. Owned by the same family since 1959, the Huckins Ranch as it is locally known, has stunning views of the mountains and forest surrounding the property. The Mission Mountains provide a scenic backdrop for the modestly updated 1,765 sq ft, 4 bedroom and 1 bathroom ranch home. The property also has a historic barn and multiple outbuildings for any equipment storage. A granary on the property was modified into a 1,055 sq ft guest or ranch managers house with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom.
Flathead Lake Overlook sits just a mile way from Dayton, Montana where there is a boat launch and storage facility to enjoy all the recreational pursuits of Flathead Lake. Additional recreation is nearby as Lake Mary Ronan is just a few minutes up the road. The property is less than one hour to commercial air service in Kalispell and 1.5 hours from Missoula. The quaint town of Lakeside provides dining and recreational opportunities less than 15 minutes from the ranch.
Currently, the owner is leasing the pastures to a neighbor that runs 80 cow/calf pairs year-round. The ranch has 5 fenced, well-watered pastures to support a small agriculture operation.
The Montana Land Reliance conservation easement allows the next owner to replace any of the existing homes if they choose.
The rich history of Flathead Lake Overlook and its proximity to Flathead Lake are just the tip of the iceberg with this property. The south-facing slopes, end of the road privacy, and the half-timbered, half-grass pastures provide ample space for your next cattle or horse operation or a significant family retreat.
Naturally formed Bow Lake, a 25 acre pond and wetlands area in the timbered portion of the ranch provides a unique alpine water source for multiple species of waterfowl and other birds as well as elk and deer. To the north, the ranch borders thousands of acres of private timberland creating excellent elk and deer habitat.
Flathead Lake Overlook is one of the last substantial ranches available around Flathead Lake. This property provides a unique opportunity for the next owner to run a specialty cattle or horse operation or have a family retreat in one of the most sought after areas in Montana.

Flathead Lake Overlook sits on 1,367 acres and features an original 1912 farmhouse. The house sits to the west of Flathead Lake overlooking Cromwell Island and the Mission Mountains. Owned by the same family since 1959, the Huckins Ranch as it is locally known, has stunning views of the mountains and forest surrounding the property. The Mission Mountains provide a scenic backdrop for the modestly updated 1,765 sq ft, 4 bedroom and 1 bathroom ranch home. The property also has a historic barn and multiple outbuildings for any equipment storage. A granary on the property was modified into a 1,055 sq ft guest or ranch managers house with 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom.
Flathead Lake Overlook sits just a mile way from Dayton, Montana where there is a boat launch and storage facility to enjoy all the recreational pursuits of Flathead Lake. Additional recreation is nearby as Lake Mary Ronan is just a few minutes up the road. The property is less than one hour to commercial air service in Kalispell and 1.5 hours from Missoula. The quaint town of Lakeside provides dining and recreational opportunities less than 15 minutes from the ranch.
Currently, the owner is leasing the pastures to a neighbor that runs 80 cow/calf pairs year-round. The ranch has 5 fenced, well-watered pastures to support a small agriculture operation.
The Montana Land Reliance conservation easement allows the next owner to replace any of the existing homes if they choose.
The rich history of Flathead Lake Overlook and its proximity to Flathead Lake are just the tip of the iceberg with this property. The south-facing slopes, end of the road privacy, and the half-timbered, half-grass pastures provide ample space for your next cattle or horse operation or a significant family retreat.
Naturally formed Bow Lake, a 25 acre pond and wetlands area in the timbered portion of the ranch provides a unique alpine water source for multiple species of waterfowl and other birds as well as elk and deer. To the north, the ranch borders thousands of acres of private timberland creating excellent elk and deer habitat.
Flathead Lake Overlook is one of the last substantial ranches available around Flathead Lake. This property provides a unique opportunity for the next owner to run a specialty cattle or horse operation or have a family retreat in one of the most sought after areas in Montana.

Lake County - Charlo, MT
MOTIVATED SELLERS
The Moiese Valley Ranch is a genuine working operation featuring irrigated farmland, fenced pasture, residences, infrastructure, and equipment, all set within an extraordinary western Montana setting. Roughly 141 acres are entirely unencumberedfree from any codes, covenants, conservation easements, or restrictions. A substantial portion of the property falls under a Five Valleys Land Trust Conservation Easement, which preserves the land from development and supports ongoing ranching, farming, and agricultural practices throughout the scenic Mission Valley. The easement includes three designated areas for residential dwellings or farmsteads.
Framed by the snow-covered Mission Mountains to the east, the ranch lies within the Flathead Indian Reservation in a quiet rural communityjust a short drive from Polson and the famous turquoise waters of Flathead Lake.
A well-rounded combination of irrigated fields, infrastructure, open range, and homestead ground illustrates the year-round functionality of this property. Six center pivots and approximately seven wheel lines provide irrigation to around +/-1,250 acres planted in alfalfa, barley, triticale, corn, and mixed haywith ample water rights. The Flathead Irrigation Project delivers water through a canal system. Reported yields have included approximately 1020 tons/acre of corn silage, +/-20 tons/acre of triticale, +/-56 tons/acre of mature alfalfa, and +/-3 tons/acre of new alfalfa. Non-irrigated ground is currently fenced pasture with native grass cover.
This well-equipped ranch includes two +/-30,000-bushel grain bins, two silage bunkers, and a full inventory of tools and machinery. The relatively low elevation of the Mission Valley allows for more favorable growing conditions and extended seasons compared to other regions of the state. These help bolster the areas reputation for nutrient-rich soil and high-quality hay.
CATTLE OPERATION
As of 2023, the ranch supported about 750 lactating cows, 92 dry cows, and 654 heifers. With an additional 600 free-stall spaces, the estimated capacity was around 1,500 milking cows. The +/-1,125 acres of fenced pasture sustain an estimated 280340 AUMs independently. Combined with silage-producing farmland, storage capacity, and livestock shelter facilities, the property offers robust wintering potential.
Current dairy infrastructure includes free-stall barns for 750 cows, 850 covered shelters for younger livestock, a loafing barn for over 100 cows, maternity pens, double-15 parallel milking parlor with non-slip flooring, auto sprayers, drains, rapid-exit lanes, and a 72,000-lb milk tank. Equipment, vehicles, tools, seed, silage, and other personal property owned by the ranch are available separately through negotiation.
MULTIPLE PARCELS
The property stretches nearly 3 miles from north to south. The layout consists of one large primary section with two smaller blocks nearby. Historically, it has operated as a dairy specializing in Holsteins for continuous milk output. However, the ranch is equally well-positioned for beef and other agricultural uses.
Two non-contiguous parcels total approximately 356 acres and are located a short distance from the main block. Each portion is accessible by gravel roads, and most of the terrain is flat valley bottom. Around +/-1,125 acres of fenced pasture are traversable via ATV, horseback, or truck. The highest elevation on the ranch reaches approximately 3,740 feet, offering impressive panoramic views overlooking the Flathead River. A leased cell tower near this ridge adds supplemental revenue.
IMPROVEMENTS
There are four residential structures on the property, a +/-7,300 sq ft double barn built in 2006, and a centralized ranch office. Workers currently occupy single-family homes in two of the designated residential zones; another is unimproved and the third remains undeveloped. The designated Dairy Facility Area covers roughly 25 acres and includes the majority of the former dairy infrastructure. The easement also allows for a one-time parcel transfer or internal boundary adjustment under specific conditions.
PRIME LOCATION
The ranch enjoys a prime location, with quick access to the lakeside community of Polson, which offers dining, lodging, retail, medical services, a public airstrip, and more. Missoula Montana Airport is just 55 minutes away, while Glacier International Airport in Kalispell is reachable in 1 hour and 40 minutes. Flathead Lakeless than 30 minutes from the ranchis the largest natural freshwater lake west of the Mississippi, covering nearly 197 square miles of clear, blue water with exceptional fishing for lake trout, smallmouth bass, whitefish, perch, pike, and more.
To the east, the rugged Mission Mountain Range stands tall with its jagged, snow-capped peaks. Just beyond lies the Bob Marshall Wilderness Complexthe fifth largest in the contiguous United States. Less than two hours north is one of the most stunning national treasures in the country: Glacier National Park.
The Five Valleys Conservation Easement was created to preserve, protect, enhance, and restore, in perpetuity, the Conservation Values of the Protected Property including protecting agricultural use and related conservation values. The easement prohibits development for non-agricultural purposes but provides for designated areas for housing and farmstead activity.
While non-tribal hunting access is limited on private lands within the Flathead Reservation, public opportunities for hiking and hunting are abundant nearby.
