hunting. It is an all-season sporting haven with a variety of outdoor activities. Strategically placed hunting blinds throughout the wetlands attract migratory birds such as mallards, pintails, wigeon, teal, wood ducks, and greater Canada geese. The wetlands, pastures, and timbered areas also support thriving populations of whitetail deer, elk, and moose, providing excellent rifle and archery hunting opportunities. Elk are often seen rutting on the property, and moose sightings are frequent. Turkey hunting is outstanding in both spring and fall, and the surrounding habitat attracts upland game birds for even more hunting possibilities. Fishing and boating opportunities abound. Northern pike, bass, and trout can be found in the private ponds and channels, and thanks to an Idaho Fish & Game Private Pond Permit, guests can fish without needing a state license. A private boat dock offers direct access to the river for fishing, boating, and kayaking adventures. The Trail of the Coeur d'Alene'sa 73-mile paved biking and hiking pathruns through the property, offering year-round recreation including camping, horseback riding, and wildlife photography. The ranch is well-equipped with premium infrastructure to support both sporting operations and livestock management. Facilities include a 2,876-square-foot main ranch home, a 1,200-square-foot guest home for visitors or a ranch manager, and a three-bay heated shop with oversized doors for storing gear and equipment. Two large barns are available for hay, livestock, or hunting equipment storage, and 100 acres of fenced pastureland are suitable for cattle grazing and hay production. An internal road system allows for easy navigation throughout the property, and water control systems with two pumps aid in wetland management and habitat improvement. In addition to its recreational offerings, the ranch presents multiple income-generating opportunities. A waterfowl hunting lease on the wetlands and fields provides steady seasonal revenue. Along the banks of the Coeur d'Alene River, seasonal camping sites attract visitors seeking fishing, wildlife viewing, and convenient access to the nearby biking trail. The 100-acre pastureland supports around 40 cow/calf pairs, further enhancing the ranch's income potential through livestock grazing and hay production. Owned by the same family since 1979, Dancing Duck Ranch has evolved from a working cattle farm into an elite sporting destination known for its thriving wildlife, conservation achievements, and wide range of recreational opportunities. With three deeded water rights, protected wetlands, and a prime location near Coeur d'Alene, Sandpoint, and Spokane International Airport, this extraordinary property is a rare investment opportunity for sportsmen, conservationists, and those seeking an active outdoor lifestyle. A property brochure, video, and disclosures are available upon request. Showings are by appointment only and require a minimum of 48 hours' notice.
