The Elk Song Ranch stands as a premier destination for fair chase elk hunting in the American West. Situated just four miles west of La Grande and amidst the Blue Mountains of Eastern Oregon, this expansive property is home to a thriving herd of 1,000 to 1,500 wild, free-ranging elk. The furnished ranch showcases a vast expanse of diverse landscapes over approximately 7,479.28+/- deeded acres. Within its boundaries lie 5,000+/- acres of timbered land, 12 miles of creek frontage, multiple springs, and expanses of meadows, canyons, and thickets, each contributing to its unmatched natural beauty. Breathtaking panoramic views from elevations ranging from 3,500 to 5,000 feet. A new lodge has been constructed in 2024. The lodge features 7 bedrooms, 6 ½ bathrooms and an attached garage. Watching elk feed across the open and timbered hillsides from the heated deck makes for a truly magnificent experience. A 3,500+/- sqft heated shop with living quarters was recently constructed near the entrance to the ranch. Sheep Creek Cabin is a true labor of love. A rustic log cabin was completely remodeled and now features 2 sleeping areas, a bathroom, dining area, and kitchen. Wood heat and a one-of-a-kind propane antler chandelier help set the ambiance inside, while the deck and large gathering area by the creek offer itself as a place to enjoy the campfire and share stories with family and friends. The Hunters Cabin features 2 bedrooms, a loft, kitchen, dining area and living area. Each residence at Elk Song features its own unique and awe-inspiring setting, and this cabin is no different. The cabin sits at the edge of a secluded meadow surrounded by timber, another great location to listen to elk sing their songs in the late summer and fall. Exclusive access is granted through a secure gate at the end of a county road, ensuring utmost privacy and seclusion amidst the encompassing private lands and nearby national forest.
