If your read everything I wrote you’d understand I know he has a 300 K budget.

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

Dang BobMt and Brad , you guys took me behind the woodshed for a good wooping... I am sorry and wont make that mistake again....

The Musselshell area is a good suggestion, no need to worry about liberals there...


Sammo you are an animal... ha ha

One of my friends and his dad are selling a portion of their farm.


We got to talking and there is a spot with numerous extra terrestrial sightings.


I asked if he thought they might sell off a 10-40 acre piece so we could build a 'place'.


Of course and the land would be under $1k/acre.

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.

That has got to be relaxing place.


I'd be content to live the rest of my life at a place like that.

rent a cheap house in Dillon for a year. that'll tell you if you really want to live in MT.

I would have said Anaconda, but I'm not trying to mess with you like some of these guys.
