Sold: Twin Waters Fishing Retreat

Property Details

Nestled in a landscape of rich river bottom, lush meadows and rolling hillsides, the Twin Waters Fishing Retreat encompasses 715 acres in southeast Idaho’s Caribou Highlands.  Boasting 2.7 miles of Blackfoot River in addition to 1.5 miles of Trail Creek onsite, incoming landowners will enjoy rights to both sides of each river as they meander through the property.  Lanes and Diamond Creeks join to form the Blackfoot River, a trophy cutthroat fishery that is home to one of the largest populations of the highly regarded native Yellowstone cutthroat trout.  The Blackfoot River is a fertile waterway that resembles a western spring creek with riffles, deep pools and undercut banks. It provides an excellent habitat for thriving populations of resident cutthroats as well as spawning areas for large trout moving upstream from the nearby Blackfoot Reservoir.  The owners recently completed a large-scale enhancement project on the ranch’s portion of the Blackfoot River, substantially increasing the numbers of native Yellowstone cutthroat trout and improving the abundant waterfowl habitat.  In addition to the healthy fisheries and the wetland component, the ranch boasts strong numbers of elk and Mule deer. Due to the retreat’s lush pastureland and abundant water rights, this diverse property is open to a myriad of opportunities.
