Introduction

The Peterson Ranch on Prairie Dog Creek is just minutes from downtown Sheridan, Wyoming one of the nation's top rated places to live in the Rocky Mountain West. The generational ranch has been in the Bocek family for many years. In their older years, the Sellers have decided to part with this prime piece of real estate.

Impressive Water Rights

The property features numerous irrigation water rights including territorial direct flow rights and 167 shares of Kearney Lake storage water.  Prairie Dog Creek Meanders for nearly a mile through the center of the property with numerous oxbows creating unmatched habitat for white tail, turkey, sandhill crane, and other wildlife.  Boxelder and Cottonwood trees line the creek as well as the two sizable ditches that also run south to north. Plum groves and cattails accent the many draws that feed into this lush and fertile river bottom.

Lush Hay Meadows

Prairie Dog Ditch and The Stout Ditch deliver water from Piney Creek, Murphy Gulch, and Prairie Dog in abundance.  An older sideroll irrigation was recently removed to make room for a new owner to install a more convenient center pivot delivery. Three phase power runs adjacent to the eastern side of the ranch.  The fields were seeded several years back to an alfalfa-grass mix and it has turned into one heck of a productive plot of land that would be an ideal location for a private pheasant club and other outdoor recreation opportunities.

Location, Location, Location

Bordering thousands of acres of State of Wyoming Land, a small sliver of state is fenced in to the property which the Sellers do not have the grazing lease on.  Convenient access off US Highway 14 allows for numerous homesites and one incredible blank canvas to create on of Sheridan Counties premier properties.
