Shoshoni, Wyoming, 82648

This 117 acre property is located directly off and north of US Hwy 26 on the western shoreline of Boysen Reservoir. It’s only about 5 miles west of Shoshoni and 17 miles north of Riverton, WY. Riverton is the county seat for Fremont County and is home to Central Wyoming Regional Airport, a two-year junior college, a full-care hospital, a K-12 school system, and has all your shopping needs with stores like Walmart. Shoshoni is much smaller but enjoys many of the benefits of larger towns, like the fact that it also has a K-12 school. Casper, the second largest city in Wyoming, is only 1.5 hours away.Native LandAbout half the property is more or less native with small gullies, gentle rocky outcroppings, and wetland areas filled with towering cottonwoods and other native trees. The Midvale Irrigation Ditch runs through it providing stock and irrigation water during the summer months while it’s running. There is an older set of corrals and a smaller granary, both located in an area that would make a very nice building site. The views from this location are awesome and the topography appears well-suited for building. It’s been a while since any livestock have used the property, but it would make a great small acreage cattle and/or sheep operation, or even an equestrian operation would do well there.Farmland (63.1± ac)The property has 3 separate hay-producing fields that are irrigated using gated pipes and water from the Midvale Irrigation District. The west field is mostly grass with some alfalfa; the east field has a lot of alfalfa, but also grass; the north field is a newer stand of mostly alfalfa. The current harvest amounts are not known but they should be typical of the area respective of the type of forage.)The classification, acres, and cost are as follows:36.5 acres class 3 @ $1.25/ac26.6 class 4 acres @ $.50/acTotal annual irrigation cost for 2023: $1,773Recreational LandThe fact that this property is located practically in the center of the state means access to all the state’s recreational treasures is no more than a half-day drive. Most notable of these would be Yellowstone, Jackson Hole, Flaming Gorge, Cheyenne (state capital), and Devil’s Tower. But in particular, Boysen Reservoir and State Park are one of the state’s best known boating and fishing destinations and this property adjoins it. The Owl Creek Mountains are just a short drive to the north for day trips, hikes, and other outdoor adventures. The famed Wind River Canyon that cuts through the Owl Mountains is a sight to behold but is also considered one of the best fly-fishing rivers in all of Wyoming, which is saying something. The wild and unruly Wind River Mountains, which frame the views of the skyline to the west (from the property), are a short drive away, as well. If you want to enjoy a fun night out, with big city entertainment and fun, The Wind River Casino and Hotel is only 20 miles south of the Property. But, you don’t need to leave the property to enjoy watching and/or hunting for upland and waterfowl, deer, and small game that all enjoy the cover from the trees and topography, and the abundant water and feed resources. Plus, across the fence to the north is all Boysen State Park, for your recreation and viewing enjoyment.Broker’s CommentsThe comments above pretty well describe the opportunities that come with this property, but from a general market perspective, this is a unique offering because of its location. The simple fact is that it is next to and overlooking Boysen Reservoir, and it enjoys the viewshed protection of the State Park to the north. I think you will have a hard time finding any other property like this one. Give us a call, if you’d like more information on it or just to chat more about it.

Sheridan, Wyoming, 82801

Rocknhat RanchThe Rocknhat Ranch epitomizes the Sheridan, Wyoming small ranch experience. With huge, unobstructed views, and at just over 43 acres, this meticulously maintained equestrian property, adjacent to over 7,260 acres of Wyoming State Land, is just a little over 7 miles southeast of downtown Sheridan, Wyoming- one of the premier lifestyle destinations in the American West.Offering the best of the West, this compact agricultural property has a beautiful, custom log home; excellent irrigation that includes 25 shares of stored Kearny water for irrigation anywhere on the property, plus 30.7 acres of adjudicated water rights; a roping arena and round pen with sand, and indoor arena with tack room; fabulous views of the Bighorn Mountains, and an amazing large outdoor recreation area of Wyoming State land right out the back gate for riding, hiking, hunting, or sightseeing.With a rustic, yet refined log home, built to the highest of standards by legendary log home builder- Kurt Luplow, it has the ambiance of a lodge, and the assurance that it's structurally very sound and beautiful with the warmth of logs. It’s perfectly located with unobstructed, world-class views of the Bighorn Mountain “skyscrapers” - including Cloud Peak (13,173’), Blacktooth (13,005’), Mount Woolsey (12,979’), Bomber Mountain (12,854’). In the "tax-friendliest" state of Wyoming, the Rocknhat Ranch gives the perfect blend of privacy and proximity to Sheridan’s amenities. This small ranch not only has the best views in Sheridan County, and premier location, but with its water rights, equestrian facilities and thousands of acres of adjacent public land, it is the perfect rural Wyoming property. Additionally, to truly make it a great equestrian property, the owners developed a beautiful outdoor arena with sand for good footing, plus they built a round pen, and they have an indoor barn large enough for some indoor riding, a tack room, and equipment storage.One can work as hard, or as little as one wants. The systems are all in place to maximize enjoyment without undo labor The Log HomeThe log home was custom built by renowned log home builder, the late Kurt Luplow. His homes are legendary for their quality and craftsmanship. Not one to cut corners, he specifically selected logs that would run the entire length of a wall without splices. The logs for this home were selected after a fire in northern Montana, and due to having been in a fire, and properly harvested, the integrity of the logs was maintained and the insulative properties are excellent. The Land, Water and Water RightsGently rising above US Highway 14, the land has Prairie Dog Ditch #7 running through, from which the irrigation water is delivered. Consider that it has excellent water rights and a sprinkler irrigation system to keep the meadows/horse pasture green and productive, even in very dry years.The owners secured a “Modern Day Water Right” for 30.7 adjudicated acres, but also purchased 25 shares of highly coveted Kearny Reservoir water (these will convey), which can be used anywhere on the property to supplement their adjudicated irrigation water, even after the adjudicated water is gone for the year. With this water, they can irrigate the entire property if they want, to keep the landscape green and productive. The productive meadows can yield up to 68 big round bales and 57 small square bales with fertilizer, and always grazing for the horses. Even in extremely dry years, this water is used into October. The water is pumped out of Prairie Dog Ditch #7 to 3 sprinklers (a big gun, and two mini-guns) via a buried pipeline. This pipeline adequately services the entire property. Additionally, the pipeline flows to an 8,000-gallon storage tank at the very top of the property, which can be used to backflow through the system if necessary for whatever reason one might need it.State LandNot to be overlooked, this large parcel of State land is immediately adjacent to the property and one can walk or ride out onto it for non-motorized recreational purposes. It offers miles of riding or hiking, plus it’s known to produce large mule deer and elk. Perhaps best of all, it gives one the opportunity to just go enjoy pure Wyoming land in privacy.Equestrian FacilitiesThe arena (235’x107’ with a 6’ return alley and roping chute), used for roping, could be used for any number of equestrian disciplines. Due to the imported sand, this arena has excellent footing and will provide years of enjoyment, especially with the stunning views.The Indoor Arena/Barn offers a nice place to do some groundwork with horses and indoor riding during inclement weather, plus it has a nice heated tack room, and there’s still plenty of room to park equipment out of the weather.The 60’ Round Pen with sand footing offers a place to start horses, or just to work a young horse before roping, or heading out to the State Land.

Wild Horse Creek Ranch is being offered for sale for the first time ever.Location & SettingSituated in Campbell County in northeastern Wyoming, about 30 miles northwest of Gillette, WY, it offers a combination of accessibility and seclusion. The ranch lies within the heart of the scenic Powder River Basin, an area long recognized for its diverse terrain, deep, juniper-filled draws, dramatic views, and expansive native grasslands, filled with nutrient-dense grasses perfectly suited to sustaining healthy resident herds of big-game wildlife and livestock.

Privacy, independence, and all the freedoms one would expect from a Wyoming Ranch.Premium Hunting & RecreationFar more than just a cattle and sheep ranch, WHC Ranch offers exceptional recreational and hunting appeal, including some of the finest big-game hunting in Wyoming. The ranch is in the famed Fortification area for big game with monster bucks, predators (lion and bear), and upland game. From their deeded land and BLM-leased land, they have access to tens of thousands of acres of adjacent, contiguous BLM land. It goes without saying that the hunting and recreational opportunities are incredible. The major species include:Elk (very healthy herd with lots of cows, and plenty of bulls, too, for all types of sportsmen ranging in size from 280”–385”, potential for 400”)Mule deer and white-tailed deer (Deer populations have suffered the past few years due to a severe winter in 2022-2023 and disease. The harvest management has adjusted accordingly, the herd is recovering, there are plenty of does, and great trophy caliber bucks in the 180” - 200” range)Pronghorn antelope (Limited quota area, but really excellent fair-chase, adventure-based hunting for these prized animals. Bucks average around 131/2”) Black bearMountain LionUpland birds and varmint huntingSPECIAL NOTE – Landowner Tag Eligibility (Elk, Deer, & Antelope)While we cannot guarantee it will qualify for landowner tags, we believe it should based on the following Wyoming Game & Fish requirements. Key Requirements & Details:Property Ownership: Must own at least 160 contiguous deeded acres within the specific hunt area. If held by a trust, LLC, or partnership, the entity must own the land, and the applicant must meet specific usage/management requirements."Animal Use Days": Landowner must verify that the species hunted used the property for at least 2,000 days over the previous year.License Limitations: Up to two licenses per species can be issued per parcel per calendar year.Application Process: Landowner applications must be submitted online to the Wyoming Game & Fish Department by the specified deadlines.Non-Transferable: These tags are not transferable, but immediate family members may use them.Elk - (Areas 2 (Fortification) & 129, Region E)Game surveys for elk, as recently as the spring of 2026, show a mostly resident herd of around 700 elk. Years-long herd hunting management practices have focused on herd stability and trophy bull availability.This is currently a general area allowing residents to purchase a license over the counter. Non-residents are subject to a draw and are limited by a quota, and they must obtain a Region General License specific to Region E. Region General Licenses allow a nonresident to hunt elk in any hunt area within that region that is open to general license hunting and are subject to the season dates and limitations for that hunt area as set forth in the Chapter 7 Elk Hunting Season Regulation. See the Wyoming Game and Fish Hunt Planner for more information and details about this and other regulations.Deer (Area 17, Region C)Like elk, this is currently a general area for residents to obtain tags. Non-residents are subject to a draw and are limited by a quota. The mule and white-tailed deer populations are carefully managed to promote the long-term sustainability and health of the deer and to support trophy-caliber bucks.Antelope (Fortification - Area 17)Unlike elk and deer, this is currently a limited quota draw area for tags. However, land-owner tags should be available, but would need to be applied for by residents and non-resident owners. are subject to a draw and are limited by a quota.

They are predators and can be hunted without a permit. Wolves, though not known to be on the ranch, are also considered to be predators in this area. Varmints like prairie dogs do not require a permit either.This is a valuable component for both recreation and ranch management.Upland Birds & Small GameThe ranch and surrounding area support a variety of upland species, enhanced by the grassland habitat, and rougher, juniper-filled draws and sagebrush areas:Sharp-tailed grouseHungarian partridgeDoves and waterfowl (seasonal)Merriman TurkeyCarrying CapacityThe Wild Horse Creek Ranch comprises approximately 16,754 acres of deeded land, state leases, and federal grazing allotments, enabling efficient, large-scale cattle production supported by extensive native grasslands, water, and diverse terrain. The estimated carrying capacity for the ranch is about 350-400 animal units. The ranch is characterized by productive native grasses typical of northeastern Wyoming, including a mix of very hardy, nutritious prairie grasses well suited to seasonal and winter grazing. The natural and developed water resources on the WHC Ranch, including its numerous reservoirs, wells, and stock water, further support its agricultural operations and help sustain wildlife populations. The combination of climate, water, and strong grasses on the WHC Ranch supports livestock through both summer pasture and winter range when properly managed; the feeding of hay in the wintertime is expected, but with proper management, cows should be able to rely on winter grass for grazing, with limited hay supplementation. It’s no coincidence that cattle buyers recognize the quality of cattle produced in this region by the premiums they pay. (Please note that carrying capacity can vary from year to year based on weather and other climatological factors. Long-term carrying capacity is typically the function of general land and livestock management.)Improvements & InfrastructureThe Wild Horse Creek Ranch is supported by minimal, yet functional improvements geared toward livestock production and wildlife management, and generally includes:Working corrals and handling facilitiesFencing systems for perimeter and interior pasturesWater developments (wells, tanks, pipelines, reservoirs)Access roads suitable for year-round ranch operationsA detailed summary of the improvements can be provided separately.Property Taxes$4,345 (2026)History & LegacyEstablished in 1901, not long after large cattle herds were first trailed into the region and permanent operations began, the Wild Horse Creek Ranch, a part of the Floyd Ranch, stands as a true multi-generational Wyoming operation. Its longevity and continued agricultural use led to its recognition as a Wyoming Centennial Farm & Ranch, a designation reserved for properties that have remained in the same family and in continuous operation for over 100 years. This recognition highlights not only the ranch’s age but also its role in preserving Wyoming’s agricultural heritage, reflecting the resilience required to operate through changing markets, weather cycles, and regional development pressures. A 2011 feature in the Gillette News Record further underscores the ranch’s legacy. The article emphasizes the Floyd family’s deep roots in Campbell County, noting generations of stewardship and the evolution of the ranch alongside the region’s cattle industry. It highlights how the operation has remained a working livestock ranch for more than a century, adapting over time while maintaining its core identity as a family-run enterprise tied to the land.SummaryThe Wild Horse Creek Ranch offers a compelling combination of:Scale and operational capabilityProductive native rangelandReliable water resourcesExcellent hunting and recreational valueDeep historical roots in Wyoming ranchingConvenient access and commute to Gillette, Buffalo, or Sheridan, WY.Altogether, it stands as a representative Powder River Basin ranch, well-suited for both livestock production, hunting, and recreational enjoyment, with the added appeal of a legacy property in one of Wyoming’s most established cattle and hunting regions.Brokers CommentsThis hard-to-find, limited-edition cowboy ranch, Wild Horse Creek Ranch, offers everything investment-minded landowners look for.
