Like the cold, clear waters of Flathead Lake, mystique surrounds Cromwell Island. It overlooks the legendary Wild Horse Island, where Salish and Kootenai historically swam their horses to keep them safe from rival tribes. In the 1930s, construction started on a dam near Polson, Montana, at the outlet of the Flathead River. Prior to its completion, in periods of low water, Cromwell Island became a peninsula connected to the shore. It is all but certain that the Native Americans historically herded their horses onto this peninsula before swimming them across to Wild Horse. Today, Cromwell Island is a full-time island, the entirety of which is now for sale. 

Flathead Lake, with almost 200 square miles of surface area and 185 miles of shoreline, is the largest natural freshwater lake west of the Mississippi River  Yes, even bigger than Lake Tahoe! To our knowledge, Cromwell Island, with almost 350 acres and nearly three miles of shoreline, is the largest private island in freshwater west of the Mississippi River that is under a single ownership.

Like Loch Ness, Flathead even has its own monster. While the lore of a huge antlered monster living in the lake is rooted in the ancient oral histories of the Kootenai Tribe, recorded sightings of the creature date back to 1889 when a steamboat captain along with 100 passengers spotted a whale-like object on the water that dove after being shot at by one of the passengers. Somewhere along the way, locals dubbed the monster Flessie, an obvious hat tip to her counterpart in Scotland.

Cromwell Island was purchased in the late 1980s by Robert M. Lee, a renowned automobile and antique arms collector, explorer, author, and conservationist. Before his death in 2016, Mr. Lee and his wife, Anne, partially completed construction of a monumental structure including over 45,000 square feet of living space that was to serve as their home full-time. Even in its unfinished state, it has a magnitude of presence reminiscent of Versailles. 

The mystique endures as Cromwell Island is now for sale and, with so many possibilities, a new owner will have the opportunity to write the next chapter of a storied place.

Thoughtfully assembled over nearly four decades, Valley View Ranch may be the largest contiguous block of irrigated ground ever to be offered in this part of Western Montana.  Situated in a small, bucolic valley adjacent to the Flathead Lake resort community of Polson, the complex consists of 5,864 well-blocked acres spanning nearly 7.5 miles from east to west.  

Water allotments totaling roughly 4,000 shares are delivered through a network of canals via the Flathead Irrigation Project to 15 pivots covering 1,850 acres.  Some handlines and 39 wheel lines make up the balance of 4,100 acres under irrigation. In the unlikely event that the allotments are insufficient, the ranch has access to additional water from the Pablo Reservoir, a mere mile to the north of the ranchs eastern boundary.  Water is moved from the canals via 21 pump stations through miles of buried and surface mainline.     

Operationally, much of the irrigated ground is in alfalfa production averaging 4.1 tons per acre in two cuttings, with the balance in improved pasture with a small portion leased out for row crops. To complement the farming and irrigation infrastructure improvements, the current owner runs 250 mother cows year-round, along with yearlings and bulls. They also bring in an additional 1,000-1,250 pairs that they custom graze and feed depending on the season. This number of livestock is well under historical and calculated carrying capacity. The ranch is fully fenced and cross fenced with cattle moved between improved irrigated pasture and vast swaths of native range along the complexs periphery.   

The ranch is modestly improved with appropriate operational facilities, including working corrals, calving sheds, arenas, scales and housing for employees.  The owners residence, constructed in 1983, is conveniently located along Eli Gap Road, offering three bedrooms, three bathrooms, double car garage and partial basement.  There are three additional single family homes spread across the ranch currently used as income generating rentals.  

Valley View Ranch is nearly adjacent to Polson, a lake resort community of roughly 5,000 people.  The community offers all amenities associated with communities of this size, including lodging, shopping, medical facilities and a 4,200-foot paved municipal landing strip and facilities for float planes.  For amenities associated with larger communities like commercial air service, Missoula and Kalispell are one hour and fifteen minutes and one hour respectively.  

Valley View Ranch, with its substantial irrigation infrastructure, rich soils, and abundant water, combine to make this offering unique in its operational potential in a locale that rarely sees production ranches of this size and quality come to market.
