Nestled in the Northern Rockies, about 2 miles from the Idaho border and approximately 60 miles south of Canada is the small community of Heron, Montana.

On the edge of the Clarks Fork River, hidden between the Cabinet Mountain Range and on the Northern edge of the Bitterroot Mountains, just minutes from Idaho's largest lake, Lake Pend Oreille, and the towns of Hope, Sandpoint and Clarks Fork, Heron is a hidden jewel.

Situated west of the Continental Divide in an East-West river valley, Heron's weather is influenced by the milder Pacific air influences rather than the brutally cold Artic air that sweeps down out of Canada into eastern Montana.

Less than 3 miles out of the Heron community itself, at the end of county designated Beaver Peak Road, lays our little getaway. Just shy of fifteen acres, the property is backed directly up against hundreds of thousands of acres of the Kootenai and Coeur d'Alene National Forests and minutes from the Cabinet Mountain Wilderness Area. Additionally, the land is surrounded by property that is now protected by an environmental easement to eliminate the possibility of development.

This property truly has the proverbial "Million Dollar View". The home overlooks the meadow to the north with a small pond, listening to a bubbling waterfall next to the home, one sees moose, elk, deer, bear, wolves, coyote, cougar, geese, wild ducks, song birds, and both bald and golden eagles, one can identify over nine named mountain peaks in the background. The pond is a perfect resting spot for migrating waterfowl and the heron enjoy "fishing" for the catfish that are the inhabitants. The "Northern Lights" occasionally light up the "Big Sky" providing nature's own lightshow.

Hunting, fishing, boating, traveling the hundreds of miles of mountain trails on your ATV's are all in a days work. Lake Pend Oreille, just twenty minutes down the road is the largest lake in Idaho covering 148 square miles, it is 43 mile long and 1,150 feet deep and is home to the world-renowned Kamloops trout! This lake has fishing. And the thousands of acres of National Forest have hunting galore. The surrounding rivers have great white water rafting. The lakes of the Clarks Fork River are ideal for Personal Watercraft and waterskiing. Cross Country skiing and snow mobiling are just out the front door. Downhill skiing is available just outside of the nearby town of Sandpoint Idaho at the Schweitzer Mountain Resort is the largest ski resort in Idaho and neighboring Washington with 2900 acres of terrain in the Selkirk Mountains. The views of the lake and all the way to Canada are unparalleled.
