Meridan Canyon Ranch
Sargent, NE 68874
Custer County, Nebraska
Farm Description
Meridian Canyon Ranch (MCR) defines the idea of a turnkey wildlife ranch and hunting
preserve. Every detail necessary to make a world-class hunting experience has been
included in what is obviously a one-of-a-kind property. There is no place this side of the
Atlantic Ocean where you can find such a beautiful 2,336 acre package (nearly four square
miles) of diversified rolling hills, hardwood bottom canyons, beautiful vistas, shelterbelts,
extensive food plots, draws, potential grain fields, and grasslands. MCR has approximately
40 elk, numerous trophy bull buffalo, abundant trophy-quality whitetail deer, and
extraordinary hunting for wild turkeys, ring- necked pheasants, and doves. Non-game
wildlife abounds with a large variety of native song birds and mammals.
MCR was built to be secure, with eight-foot high-tensile woven wire fencing and a custom
made electric-gated front entrance. The ranch features a comfortable 3,200 square foot
3 bedrooms, four bathrooms Rocky Mountain log home with a 360 degree wrap-around,
all wood deck. Renovation and remodeling undertaken by the current owners was done
by world-reknowned log cabin designer and builder Bill Pelc of Big Sky Log Construction.
The grounds surrounding the house are beautifully landscaped, and the stone retaining
walls match stone on the interior fireplace. The interior features several custom carpentry
accents using wood sourced on the ranch. All the large windows have been replaced with
new high-efficiency windows. All four bathrooms in the home have been renovated and
upgraded with high-end fixtures and finishes. Other recent additions include a finished,
insulated two-car garage with attached room intended as a painting studio that could also
be used as a home office. The current Owner's have had the entire log home re-caulked, rechinked,
and re-stained.
Other improvements include a 1000-GPM well, pump and power unit; a 2,400 square foot
insulated, heated shop; five submersible wells, underground lines and tanks, and numerous
newly-installed dams, ponds and dugouts.
