Known as the Land of 10,000 Haystacks, the Upper Big Hole Valley is quietly famous for its quality hay, incredible scenery, and small-town charm. Fay Ranches is honored to bring to market one of the finest ranches in this beautiful valley. The Arrow Ranch is one of the most productive ranches in the Upper Big Hole Valley, both recreationally and agriculturally. This is not just hyperbole. The Upper Big Hole, specifically the Arrow Ranch, is where everything is measured in the thousands, as in tons of hay, trout, and elk.
The Arrow Ranch, located in Montana’s Southwest corner, comprises 14,982± acres within its boundaries (12,963± acres is held in a Conservation Easement with the Nature Conservancy). The ranch is well blocked, and there are 2,019± deeded acres for the next owner to place into a conservation easement if they choose.
The acreage is a combination of flood irrigated meadows, prairie habitat with large grassy and sagebrush-covered hills, streambeds dotted with cottonwood trees, buckbrush, and willows, and transition areas covered with evergreen and aspen trees. With over 15+ miles of live tributary streams and 10.25± miles of boundary adjoining forest service, the Arrow Ranch is not only a best-in-class agricultural operation. Still, it provides a dynamic habitat for a world-class offering of wildlife, including large herds of elk that can be counted in the thousands.
The Arrow Ranch offers an opportunity for a fortunate land investor to embark on a special adventure that provides security and safety for their family, as well as a lifetime of enjoyment.
