Property details for 53438 Hwy. 26, Mount Vernon, OR 97865

The Moon Creek Ranch has been owned by the same family for 100 years. The ranch offers a unique opportunity to own an entire canyon and watershed. The ranch consists of over 4400 acres of pasture and timber ground. Moon Creek Ranch is directly adjacent to the Malheur Nat'l Forest and there is BLM that is contiguous to the ranch as well. The big game hunting is incredible as the ranch sits in the highly coveted Murders Creek hunting unit. The property qualifies for 3 LOP tags for elk, 3 LOP tags for deer, plus a variety of other opportunities on private land cow elk hunts. Archery season is extra special at Moon Creek as big bulls bugle up and down the canyon. The ranch has Whitetail and Mule deer, Bighorn Sheep, Elk, Cougars, Turkeys, Bobcats and Black bears. It is not unusual to see 4 or 5 of these species on every trip up the canyon. The ranch offers 3440 acres of deeded land, with 122 acres of water rights along with a 1011 acre BLM grazing allotment.
