Comments: The Moon Mountain Ranch is just 9 miles east of Lewistown. There are panoramic views of area mountain ranges and the vast Central Montana agricultural lands. This ranch has timber, aspens, cottonwoods and ponds. The south side of the property is conveniently located along the highway with a modest building that already has electricity and a well. The north side of the property is private with over a mile of a hidden valley skirted with aspens and timber. I would say the best of both worlds…..private and convenient.
