Set in the Turtle Mountains near the International Peace Garden, this 470± acre property combines productive alfalfa fields, rolling pasture, wooded hills, deep draws, and a 13± acre pond. For someone looking to expand a livestock operation, put up hay, or own land that combines agricultural use with outdoor enjoyment, this acreage offers a versatile mix. Level alfalfa fields provide ground for hay production, while additional alfalfa and grasses extend across the hilltops and openings. The rolling pasture adds grazing opportunities, with wooded draws providing natural shelter for livestock. Open fields transition into hills and sheltered low ground, giving the property the variety and character that come with farming and ranching in the Turtle Mountains. The combination of hay ground and pasture could complement an existing operation or appeal to a buyer wanting a place to raise livestock while enjoying the land. Its agricultural uses also contribute to the wildlife habitat, with alfalfa fields and grassy openings providing feeding areas beside established timber.
For the hunter, the property’s appeal becomes clear where those fields meet the trees. Deep draws hold stands of oak and aspen, creating sheltered bedding areas and natural travel routes. The oaks provide a seasonal acorn crop, while the wooded slopes and aspen cover give wildlife places to retreat close to food and water. The property rests along the west side of Wakopa Wildlife Management Area, an approximately 7,173-acre expanse that places it within a broader landscape of wildlife habitat. That adjoining land adds to the setting and makes the location especially appealing to buyers who value substantial habitat around their own acreage. Deer, moose, and elk contribute to the wildlife appeal, along with ducks, geese, ruffed grouse, wild turkeys, and a variety of predators. Whether watching an alfalfa field on a fall evening, following the edges of a wooded draw, or walking the aspen for grouse, there is considerable terrain to explore. The approximately 13-acre pond adds waterfowl habitat and another focal point for wildlife. Its combination with nearby feeding areas, grass, and timber strengthens the property’s overall habitat mix while creating a scenic place to spend a quiet morning or evening.
Beyond the property, nearby lakes add fishing and recreational opportunities to the ownership experience. Located between Lake Upsilon and Carpenter Lake, near Dion Lake and not far from Jensen Lake, the acreage offers a convenient base for exploring the surrounding lake country. A day spent working cattle or putting up hay can give way to an evening on the water or a relaxing drive through the hills.
The International Peace Garden and the surrounding Turtle Mountains add further opportunities to enjoy the area throughout the seasons. Summer brings green fields and leafy draws, while fall turns the aspen gold and brings fresh color to the oak-covered hills. With room to work, hunt, and unwind, Turtle Mountain Treasure brings agricultural purpose and outdoor enjoyment together on 470± acres.
