Trail Creek Cabin

discover.modules.lands.sites.sitesWithCount · publicCampground.modules.title.accommodationTypes.structure

Trail Creek Cabin is the original ranger station for the Bozeman Ranger District, circa 1924.

And, it’s so remote that you can’t reach it via car. You’re going to have to get there by hiking, biking, horseback riding, snowmobiling… well, you get it, there are a lot of options. Once you’ve arrived you’ll be blown away, especially by the views from the front porch. Meadows and mountain peaks will be presented before you in all of their glory, and there’s a small and peaceful creek out back. There’s no electricity or running water out here, but we’d be willing to bet that you’ll hardly miss them.

Montana Red Devon Ranch is owned and managed by Jenny Kahrl. Her boys Riley and Kiril were raised on the ranch and often help with cattle, land, and maintenance. We have chosen Red Devon cattle for their history (originally from Devonshire England, Devons arrived in North America in 1624!), their docility, and their gourmet beef. Our cattle eat only grass, hay, and forages, as Nature intended. We manage our land to protect wildlife and clean water for all, to improve soils, preserve open space, and feed hundreds of our neighbors. All our grassfed beef is sold within 50 miles of the ranch. We also have a deep commitment to sharing our love of land and animals with our community, both near and far. We have hosted international visitors from France, Russia, Japan, Brazil, New Zealand, Australia, Canada, and many many Americans. Jenny Kahrl speaks French fluently. We hope to share our love of this land and its riches with many visitors, for it is only by knowing where our food originates that we can appreciate each farm and farm family for their work to feed America and the world.
