About This Home
Tucked away in the heart of NW Montana wilderness, this rare 10.18-acre retreat borders thousands of acres of pristine US Forest Service land, offering unmatched privacy, recreation, and year-round access on Otter Lane. Surrounded by towering cedar trees, abundant wildlife, and the peaceful sounds of seasonal Otter Creek, this property is the definition of Montana mountain living.
The property features two separate cabins, two septic systems, a private well, 6 outbuildings, including a woodshed/tool shed and generator shed for the A-frame. A large cedar storage shed midway up the road. By the small cabin is an open woodshed, an outhouse, and the water shed. There is phone and internet availability—providing the perfect balance of off-grid independence and modern comfort. The charming A-frame cabin offers nearly 1000 square feet with an open two-story floor plan, new flooring, king sized bed in the loft, a beautifully updated bathroom, and a spacious deck overlooking the creek and forest. The cedar shake roof has been replaced with durable metal for added fire protection, and a brand-new Lopi wood stove keeps the cabin warm, efficient, and cozy through every season.
Perched above the property to capture breathtaking views of the Cabinet Mountain Range, the newly built cabin was thoughtfully designed and crafted in Idaho. Warm and inviting, it features a full kitchen, bathroom, running hot water, wood-burning stove, and a king-size loft bed—creating the perfect guest quarters, rental opportunity, or private getaway.
Meticulously thinned and groomed into a park-like setting for fire resistance and camping opportunities, the land itself is a true highlight. Mature trees, including cedar and tamarack, provide plentiful firewood, and peaceful natural surroundings which creates an incredibly serene atmosphere ideal for relaxation, writing, recreation, or simply escaping the noise of everyday life. Located in an outstanding hunting and fishing area, this property is a dream basecamp for outdoor enthusiasts. Whether you are looking for a full-time residence, family retreat, income-producing investment, or private wilderness escape, the possibilities are endless. Generate additional income through Hipcamp, VRBO, Airbnb, or cordwood sales, while enjoying an incredibly low cost of living with no water bill, electric bill, or cable bill. The "water shed" by the upper cabin has the holding tank for the water, a flex pressure tank, and a jet pump recently installed. Both cabins have an on-demand hot water heater. There is a propane wall heater in the bathroom. There is a Hondo 2000 and 5000 generator and a propane refrigerator, propane stove, and wood stove. The A-frame house is powered by a Hondo 2000 and 8000 generator, propane stove, propane refrigerator, and a Lopo wood stove. Each cabin has a new Casper King sized bed, which are included with the sale.
Quiet, secluded, and surrounded by nature—this is Montana living at its finest.
