High quality Gallatin Valley acreage with live water, wildlife and spectacular mountain views has gotten harder and harder to find—making Hyalite Reserve a truly distinctive piece of property. With its creek-side house site and over one-third mile of Hyalite Creek flowing through the ranch, you’ll feel like you’ve found your own special piece of Montana at last. And, at an affordable price.
A third of a mile of beautiful Hyalite Creek winds through the east end of this 26.75-acre parcel, drawing in wildlife and birds. An irrigation ditch on the north border of the property provides additional habitat for the many species you’ll see here. The 20 acres of hay and grain fields on the west end were recultivated and reseeded with alfalfa and grass in the spring of 2010. There is good access off East Baseline Road, which is convenient to the airport and frontage road to Bozeman.
Hyalite Reserve is located in the northeast part of Montana’s Gallatin Valley—known to the early Blackfeet and other tribes as the “Valley of Flowers.” Gallatin Field Airport is four miles away to the west, and the town of Bozeman is seven miles to the east, affording you significant convenience.
You will definitely discover a favorite honey hole or two on Hyalite Reserve! Hyalite Creek offers seasonal fishing during the summer and fall as fish migrate up from the confluence with the Gallatin River, just downstream. Beyond Hyalite Reserve itself, it would be hard to find a location with more quality fishing options within a short drive. The Madison, Gallatin, and Yellowstone Rivers are located within 15 to 45 minutes of the ranch, and are arguably the most famous fly fishing rivers in the world thanks to their scenic beauty, incredible numbers and size of trout, and the legendary anglers who helped put them on the map, like Joe Brooks, Charles Brooks, and Bud Lilly.
Improvements on the property include a graveled access road off East Baseline with new buck-and-rail fence along the west boundary.
With its particularly good, thick cover for pheasants along Hyalite Creek, Hyalite Reserve affords good hunting for pheasants (birds are released annually on adjoining land) and Hungarian partridge (“huns”). Waterfowling for ducks and geese can also be superb. Deer frequent the fields and riparian areas on the property. Hyalite Reserve lies in a weapons-restricted area, meaning rifles are not allowed for big game, but it can be quite productive for those who like to hunt trophy whitetails with a bow or shotgun.
