5 Montana and Idaho Acreage Retreats Near Yellowstone and Hot Springs

From its elevated Montana setting near Fairmont Hot Springs, this 41+ acre property spans two parcels and balances privacy with investment potential and year-round living. A single-level ranch home offers four bedrooms and three full bathrooms, refreshed with new bedroom flooring and a spacious, updated utility room complete with a new washer and dryer. Expansive windows capture mountain views and the Anaconda smokestack, while knotty pine walls and ceilings bring warmth and continuity throughout the interiors. Outdoors, the working-land features are equally considered: a double-car garage, RV pad with hookups, a large shop, horse stalls, corrals, and open pastures supported by irrigation rights and underground sprinklers. With room for livestock, recreation, or future development, the landscape invites a lifestyle shaped by space and possibility.

Abundant natural light pours through oversized windows, lending warmth to the living spaces throughout. From the living room, panoramic views and unforgettable sunsets become part of the routine, whether you’re hosting friends, enjoying family time, or simply settling in by the glass to watch the landscape shift with the light.

Steps from Henry’s Fork of the Snake River, this historic Island Park lodge—once the Sportsman Bar—pairs vintage character with modern comforts.

Set on 9.8 acres in Montana’s Gallatin Valley, this end-of-the-road lot offers a quiet neighborhood setting with a rare sense of privacy.

An improved driveway leads to the building site, where architectural plans await your vision, supported by light CCRs that help preserve the area’s character. Here, tranquility and convenience share the same horizon.
