Scenic L and M Ranch – Farrell Creek, BC

Description

Located in the resource-rich Farrell Creek area of British Columbia’s Peace River Region, this expansive 2,095.81-acre ranch offers a rare opportunity to acquire a well-balanced mix of agricultural productivity, rural infrastructure, and recreational value. As an added bonus, the ranch pulls in $60,000+ in oil and gas surface lease revenues per annum.

With approximately 605 acres currently in hay production and improved pasture, the remainder of the property offers additional grazing potential, much of it naturally treed with aspen, spruce, and willow, and well-suited for rotational or seasonal grazing. The entire ranch is fenced and cross-fenced, and is adjacent to vast stretches of crown land, opening up exceptional opportunities for hunting, wildlife viewing, and outdoor recreation.

The ranch has previously run up to 100 cow/calf pairs and approximately 500 round bales of varying sizes. Note, that these are estimates.

The main ranch parcel features a 1,500 sq.ft. log home (built 1984) along with a broad array of supporting infrastructure, including:

• 1,467 sqft residence built in 1984
• Two steel Quonsets both with wood stoves
• Fabric Quonset
• Two Cabins
• New Barn with squeeze
• Cattle handling infrastructure
• Multiple storage cabins
• Hay barns
•  Meat shed with built in cooler
• Older shop

This ranch is ideally suited for a cattle operation, multi-family farming, or as a base for a hybrid agri-recreational enterprise.

AREA DATA

The Farrell Creek area is located within the Peace River Regional District of northeastern British Columbia, a region known for its strong agricultural roots, abundant natural resources, and vast stretches of crown land. Positioned northwest of Hudson’s Hope and northeast of Fort St. John, this rural area offers a mix of rolling farmland, forested tracts, and river corridors, making it ideal for ranching, forestry, and outdoor recreation.

The broader Peace River Region is BC’s only part of the province east of the Rocky Mountains and is recognized as one of Canada’s most productive agricultural zones, thanks to its fertile soils, long daylight hours in summer, and moderate growing conditions. In addition to farming and ranching, the region plays a significant role in BC’s oil and gas, forestry, and hydroelectric sectors—supported by infrastructure such as the Site C Dam, pipelines, and extensive road access. Outdoor recreation is also a major draw, with excellent hunting, fishing, and wildlife viewing, as well as proximity to wilderness areas, lakes, and rivers.

Residents and investors benefit from a low population density, a strong sense of community, and access to services in nearby hubs like Fort St. John and Hudson’s Hope.

RECREATION

The Peace River Region of northeastern British Columbia offers an abundance of year-round recreational opportunities, set against a backdrop of rugged wilderness, rolling farmland, and river valleys. Outdoor enthusiasts enjoy world-class hunting for elk, moose, deer, and bear, as well as fishing in the Peace River, Williston Lake, and numerous creeks and lakes throughout the area.

Expansive crown land and forestry roads provide endless opportunities for ATVing, snowmobiling, hiking, and horseback riding, while winter brings excellent conditions for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. Water-based recreation, including boating, kayaking, and canoeing, is popular in the region’s lakes and rivers, particularly near Dinosaur Lake, Williston Reservoir, and the Peace River corridor.

For those seeking solitude or adventure, the region’s wide-open landscapes, rich wildlife, and minimal development make it an ideal setting for backcountry exploration, camping, and photography. With easy access to nature and uncrowded trails, the Peace River Region offers a true northern outdoor lifestyle.
