Wake to the sound of Cottonwood Creek outside your bedroom windows. Tucked into 10 private acres in Bozeman’s coveted South Cottonwood Canyon, this extraordinary property brings together approximately 700 feet of private creek frontage, a beautifully restored 100-year-old cabin, distinctive outbuildings, documented water rights and Gallatin National Forest access—all just minutes from Bozeman.
At the heart of the property is a 2-bedroom, 2-bath cabin that has undergone an extensive year-long restoration. Restored, not reinvented, the work preserves the character and soul of the original structure while preparing it for its next century. All new windows frame the surrounding forest and creek, complemented by a beautifully renovated kitchen and baths, new appliances, roof insulation and shingles, added insulation, rebuilt fireplace with new stove and equipment, new deck, updated lighting, Starlink internet and numerous additional improvements. Offered fully furnished with a few personal exceptions, it is ready to enjoy from the day you arrive.
Here, the creek isn’t simply a property feature—it is part of everyday life. See and hear Cottonwood Creek from the bedroom windows or porch. Coffee on the deck, a fire at dusk, wildlife moving through the canyon and the constant sound of water—this is a place meant to be lived in, not simply admired.
The red gambrel barn and garage/shop add character and utility. At home in the pines and at the edge of the Gallatin National Forest, the property is just up the road from the South Cottonwood Trailhead and miles of hiking, horseback riding and mountain biking, with abundant wildlife including migratory elk.
And there is room to grow. An approved Gallatin City-County septic authorization and engineered design are in place for a new system designed to serve two dwelling units with up to six total bedrooms. Septic, water-right, well, water-quality and additional property documentation are available for review.
Approximately 15 minutes from Bozeman, 30 minutes from Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport and 45 minutes from Big Sky, this is an increasingly rare combination: 10 private acres. Cottonwood Creek. A restored 100-year-old cabin. Documented water rights. National Forest at your doorstep. And room to create a lasting Montana legacy.
