Lot Features

• With roughly .3± miles of creek frontage winding through the 32+ deeded acres, Dry Creek is an anglers dream and one of the  areas’ best kept fly-fishing secrets. Consistent spring water flowing with healthy streamside vegetation provides excellent fishing for rainbow and brown trout. Dry Creek is a classic riffle, run, pool small stream fishery that holds healthy populations of brown and rainbow trout with some fish reaching sizes up to 5 pounds while the average fish is around 8-12 inches. Throughout the year there
• are a variety of hatches and terrestrials which provide for excellent “top water” action on this stretch of Dry Creek. In fall and spring there are hatches of blue wing olives. Caddis are present from April through October. August and September there is an excellent trico hatch in the mornings. Because of the meandering nature of the creek and the overhanging grass and willow banks,
• the hopper fishing in July, August and September can be fantastic.
• With good cover and ample water, the property is excellent habitat for a variety of wildlife species including a healthy population of whitetail deer, sandhill crane, geese, ducks, moose and even an occasional black bear will frequent the property. Whether you are a hunting enthusiast or simply enjoy viewing the
• wildlife, you’ll enjoy the many visitors.
• The property is divided into several pastures for livestock. The acreage produces on average 15-20 round bales of hay per year depending on the year.
• There are three domestic wells on the property,one for the main house, guest house and barn.
• Multiple water rights convey. Water rights from Dry Creek allow for water to be diverted
• underground by culvert to fill the two private ponds. Brownell Ditch rights are currently used by seller for irrigation of guest house yard.

Horse Facility Features

• Currently the barn is used for goats but could easily be converted into two stalls.
