Powell Creek Ranch

Powell Creek Ranch encompasses 2,748.46± contiguous deeded acres in Baker County, Oregon, offering a rare combination of productive rangeland, diverse wildlife habitat, abundant recreational opportunity, and exceptional mountain scenery.

Rising nearly 2,000 vertical feet in just four miles, from approximately 2,800 feet along Powell Creek to nearly 4,800 feet at its highest elevations, the ranch presents remarkable diversity within a single contiguous ownership. Productive creek bottoms, open meadows, rolling bluebunch wheatgrass hillsides, mountain mahogany, mature Douglas-fir timber, and quaking aspen groves support livestock grazing, abundant wildlife, and outstanding hunting opportunities. Portions of the ranch are enrolled in the Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP), further enhancing riparian habitat and conservation values.

The ranch includes certificated irrigation water rights, multiple natural springs, Powell Creek, perennial True Blue Gulch, seasonal reservoirs, and irrigation infrastructure supplied by both Powell Creek and the Banks Ditch/Unity Reservoir system. Existing improvements include two comfortable homes, a powered metal shop, a deer-fenced orchard and garden, working corrals with an alley and loading chute, multiple storage buildings, a substantial three-sided equipment building, and a rustic mountain retreat with sweeping views of the Durkee Valley, Elkhorn Mountains, and distant Eagle Cap Wilderness.

Located just minutes from Interstate 84 and approximately 1.5 hours from Boise, Powell Creek Ranch offers an appealing balance of productivity, recreation, privacy, and accessibility. Whether envisioned as a working cattle operation, a recreational retreat, or a legacy family holding, Powell Creek Ranch presents an exceptional opportunity to own one of Eastern Oregon’s most diverse and scenic ranch properties.
