A Legacy Since 1929

Four generations of stewardship, tradition, and connection to the land beneath the Rocky Mountains

Our Story

1929

The Beginning

Stottland Ranch was founded in the heart of Choteau, Montana, where the Great Plains meet the Rocky Mountains. What started as a modest cattle operation would grow into a legacy of sustainable ranching and authentic Western heritage.

1950s-1970s

Building Tradition

Through decades of dedication, the ranch expanded its operations while maintaining a commitment to quality and land stewardship. The Stottland family became known throughout Montana for their premium beef and deep respect for the land.

1990s-2000s

Sharing the Experience

Recognizing the transformative power of ranch life, the family began welcoming visitors to experience authentic cowboy work. What started informally evolved into structured programs that would become Cowboy Camp.
