Chopaka River Ranch

Chopaka Lake Ranch is a premier recreational and fly fishing property in northern Washington, offering ±217.20 deeded acres in a secluded mountain basin near Loomis. The Ranch holds the only deeded ground on Chopaka Lake and features approximately 3,550 feet of low-bank shoreline, providing direct access to one of Washington’s most highly regarded fly fishing lakes. The property is comprised of seven separately deeded parcels ranging from 14.7 to 40 acres, with three parcels currently fronting the lake.

Managed by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife as a fly-fishing-only lake with motors prohibited, Chopaka Lake encompasses approximately 133 acres and supports a productive rainbow trout fishery. Rainbow trout commonly range from 12 to 18 inches, with larger fish present. Bench building sites overlook the lake and surrounding mountain landscape, while the property remains unimproved and fully off-grid.

Public forest and rangeland border Chopaka Lake Ranch on three sides, creating immediate access to hunting, hiking, horseback riding, camping, and wildlife viewing. The surrounding basin supports mule deer, black bear, moose, bighorn sheep, mountain goats, and numerous bird species.

Located approximately 20 miles from Tonasket and 30 miles from Omak, Chopaka Lake Ranch combines private lake access, expansive public lands, mountain scenery, and outstanding fly fishing in Washington’s Okanogan County.
