Brad & BobMt, the O.P. indicated he wanted something simple and off grid , so the $1million 20 acres is not an issue I am guessing?

You want to live among liberals with views, lakefront etc.... ya a huge budget is the ticket. But a simple off grid cabin should be doable for the budget he has.
The point about the well is a very good point, I call it the well casino, you may win you may lose... never know till ya try. I bought my land with the knowledge my neighbors wells were 60' to 100'
My well is 250' feet so that has a big impact on the budget.
All this being said I am taking the O.P. at his word that he wants remote and off grid, it is up to him if he can handle that lifestyle, he needs to be honest with himself, it aint easy...
I did my land shopping in winter, that way you can asses how the access will be during the winter.
If he truly wants to be a hermit I believe he can achieve that with his budget. If he wants views and "pretty people"..... no, you cant have too much money for that...
if he doesn't have to work...….if my budget was 300k ..all in....land, building.....septic….well....off grid capable...and willing to live remote..you could do it......you will need to have some money for equipment....at least a midsize backhoe...I would think....
I would definitely rent first, look around...then buy …..I also wouldn't give 2 schiits what locals think......don't be a dick and you will get along fine...….I will throw out an area that would work......Musselshell river out of mosby…...brads post and mine where in response to jinyorks...bob
It is on grid and in a kinda liberal free zone, so no pretty people....
Nice cabin ifubar, I’m hoping to build one for myself soon. My current place is getting to close to town, but will hang in until my wife doesn’t have to commute anymore.
