Discover the magic of Montana from this private retreat on Wild Horse Island, the crown jewel of Flathead Lake. Wake to vibrant sunrises over the Mission Mountains, with bighorn sheep grazing nearby, songbirds filling the morning air, wild horses wandering to the water's edge, and end the day with glowing sunsets so stunning they seem unreal- all from the comfort of your deck. Nestled among old growth Ponderosa Pines and surrounded by 2,160 acres of state park, this exquisite off-grid property features a carefully crafted log cabin brimming with charm, abundant natural light, hardwood floors, gently sloping south-facing terrain, and breathtaking lake and mountain views. Wild Horse Island, renowned for its natural beauty and historical significance, hosts just 56 deeded lakeshore lots, each with a wildlife buffer zone, ensuring unparalleled privacy and making ownership a rare privilege. Each season brings new wonders: spring blooms with newborn deer and lambs among the wildflowers; summer invites boating, kayaking, and swimming in crystal-clear waters while exploring nearby islands; fall offers tranquil hikes along miles of unspoiled trails, perfect for spotting eagles fishing; and winter bathes the Mission Mountains in alpenglow, turning peaks a majestic purple. Immerse yourself in nature, watch wildlife under big skies, find peace where wild horses roam. As the only vacation rental on the island, this remarkable property includes two deeded boat slips at the Wild Horse Marina on the mainland, just a 10 minute boat ride away. Blending seclusion with accessibility, history with modern comfort, this sanctuary on the largest island in the largest freshwater lake west of the Mississippi is truly one-of-kind.
