Haystack Butte Ranch

Ranch Description

This 15,426± acre ranch is located 25 miles north of Newell or 45 miles northeast of Belle Fourche and consists of 13,794 deeded acres, 636 acres of State of South Dakota lease acres and 996 acres of BLM lands. The Haystack Butte Ranch, so named after the butte in the south-central part of the ranch, is in one contiguous tract with excellent access off of paved State Highway 79 and Old Highway 79, a county gravel road. Two main drainages, Battle Creek and the South Moreau River, run through the north part of the property. A deep well, with miles and miles of pipelines and tanks, provides water for livestock as well as numerous dams and dugouts. The house, along with impressive landscaping, was rebuilt with an addition added in 2009. A 5,000 sq. ft. heated shop, along with calving barns and a good set of working corrals and pens, meets the needs of this livestock operation. In recent years, the owners have calved 600 plus heifers on the place. The house, the shop, the livestock buildings, the livestock watering system and the fences are considered above average for the area. Simply, the ranch is ready-to-go without additional capital investment. The ranch is home to a large variety of wildlife to include trophy mule deer, whitetail deer, coyote, fox and birds of prey. The ranch is also a home to both sharp-tail grouse and sage grouse. You will love the scenic landscapes and the romance of Haystack Butte on this easily managed ranch. This is a rare opportunity to purchase a contiguous year-round ranch located just north of the Black Hills of South Dakota.
