Nestled among mature trees, is this comfortable home of about 3,000 sqft. From here, you have a commanding view of undisturbed countryside in the quiet and serenity of NE Montana. A solarium absorbs heat and passes it on to a stonewall which stores it. This passive solar system keeps your utility bills down to a minimum. The warm glow of the oak wood throughout the residence makes you feel welcome, and the inviting country kitchen lets you pass on the hospitality to your friends and family. Rural living at its finest.
If you like to hunt, upland game birds (pheasants, grouse, partridge), geese and ducks are abundant along with whitetail, mule deer, and antelope. Excellent fishing can be found 2-3 hours from Plentywood for lake trout, northerns, and walleye in Fort Peck Dam and Canadian lakes, etc. There is local fishing and ice fishing in Bolster Dam, local stock dams, and Medicine Lake.
Other outdoor activities include snowmobiling, sledding, and cross country skiing out your back door, on hills near town, and on the golf course. Enjoy water skiing, jet skiing, and swimming at Brush Lake - FWP managed with a sandy beach, bathroom facilities, and boating dock. There is also a motor sports racing complex. If you like clubs and social activities, there is the Community Choir, Prairie Symphonette, Antelope Dinner Theatre, Old Car club Motor-cross club, Bump-n-run car club, Sno-travelers, Old Tractor Club, Trap Shooting Club, Golf league, dart league, and bowling league, Baseball Leagues (for all ages), Dolphin Swim team, City league basketball, Adult volleyball Roping Club, Trail riding / wagon train club, 4-H, Quilting clubs Book club, Boy Scouts / Girl Scouts, Homemakers clubs, Knights of Columbus, WELCA, Shriners, Elks, Lions, Sherwood Garden Club, Red Hat Society, Golden Years (senior citizens), and I wouldn't be surprised if there are more reasons for social gatherings....
The city of Plentywood is less than seven miles to the south. The community centers around farms and ranches, but the oil exploration spilling over from neighboring North Dakota and trade with Canada, brings diversity to the little town of about 2,000. There is a medical clinic and hospital in town along with elderly care and a group home and transitional living facility for handicapped adults. The elevation is around 2050 feet and the annual rainfall is around 14," so there is plenty of sunshine, with average temperatures ranging from a little below freezing in winter to not much over room temperature in summer. The nearest big city is in Canada,
Regina, Saskatchewan, population 178,225. It is 120 miles from Plentywood, Montana. Billings, the largest city in Montana with 120,000 people, is 343 miles to the south. Chances are slim that this area will get crowded any time soon, which I know seems to be a problem with many towns in rural America at this time. The schools are modern and there are shops, of course, see below.
