About this property

Beaver Creek originates in the Bears Paw Mountains 20 miles south of Havre and gracefully meanders through the lower section of this versatile and unique property located in north central Montana. Nestled at the end of a short gravel road, the site provides privacy from the rest of the busy world, ensured by state land and historic Fort Assinniboine along the entire south and west sides. Across the creek and a mile to the southwest, history echoes through the 130-year-old buildings and parade grounds where the Montana State University agricultural experimental station now lies. Artifacts left behind by soldiers frequently surface in the creek or hide along the banks like a hidden treasure. Six generations of the seller's family has spent their summer days in the creek floating and treasure hunting ? a wall full of their findings will remain with the property. The Possibilities Historically, this tranquil expanse has served as a cherished site to escape life in town as a private family campground. Over the last 75 years, the owners have spent countless hours working with tractors, skid steers, and other equipment to clear the brush and dead trees from the land. The property was plowed, disked, and leveled to allow the planting of native grasses that are easily maintained and mowed. Thirty years ago, the property underwent a major upgrade to the infrastructure. First, a new water well was drilled and developed. Because it was an artesian flowing well, a well house was required to be built over the top to prevent freezing in the winter months. Six separate home run 2" water lines were trenched at 6 feet deep, each connected to a manifold attached to the well inside the well house with four lines going north and two lines south. One of the two southbound lines travels to the cabin and two RV hookups in the original campground next to the cabin. The second line goes to a future building site for an elevated house or wedding venue building adjoining this campground and park area that has the creek on three sides of it.
