Flathead Lake Market: Overall: Flathead Lake real estate would be considered mostly developed with vacation homes for sale, high end custom lakefront homes, cabins, condos and few unimproved land or property sites available for sale . The Flathead Lake real estate market has reflected the inventory over the years with "hot years" showing only a handful of homes for sale, and also slow sales years with high inventory of over a 150 homes for sale. View our visual tour inventory including Flathead Lake homes for sale (and others) or just a scenic photo tour around the lake. 2011 Market Update (January - December 2011) showed final 2011 sales on Flathead Lake to be 30 homes sold and 3 vacant land properties sold. At the end of the year there are 81 homes with traditional navigable waterfront for sale, with 3 of these "bank owned". (This count does not include homes with access or condo/townhomes.) Two out of the 81 for sale are shown as "Pending" at year end. Based on the 2011 rate of sale of 30 homes with 81 homes remaining to sell, there is 2.7 years worth of inventory (absorption rate). The highest sale on the lake happened in the Fall with a final sales price of $3,700,000. This home was on the eastshore of Flathead Lake. The least expensive home that sold with full navigable frontage was on Kings Point near Polson - it sold for $300,000. The median price was $620,000; the average was approx $820,000. The average days on market was 415. Flathead Lake, MT is one of the 300 largest natural lakes in the world and the largest natural freshwater lake west of the Mississippi River and as such is attracting real estate investors, vacation home buyers and waterfront enthusiasts to its shoreline. According to studies done at the Flathead Lake Biological Station in Yellow Bay (located just south of Bigfork, MT), the water in Flathead Lake is among the cleanest in the world. Every New Years folks take to the lake for the annual Polar Bear Plunge in Woods Bay on the eastshore and the plunge in Polson Bay on the south shore. The lake, located in NW Montana and about 8 miles south of Kalispell, is about 191 square miles in surface area with an average depth of 164 feet and a maximum depth of 370 feet. The varied shoreline meanders over 160 miles around all of the waterfront property with the towns of Bigfork, Lakeside, Somers, Rollins, Elmo, Big Arm and Polson on its shores. Wild Horse Island in Big Arm Bay near Rollins is managed by Montana Dept. of Fish, Wildlife and Parks, and is open for day use to enjoy the 2,100 acres of land. A few lucky people have private ownership of lake property on Wildhorse Island. Hikers will see bighorn sheep and wild horses. There are many public access points on Flathead Lake, with most at one of the beautiful Montana State Parks dotting the shore line.

Bigfork
Platted in 1901, Bigfork, MT is a charming village set on the northeast shoreline of Flathead Lake at the mouth of the Swan River and home to fine art galleries, gourmet restaurants of varied cuisine, unique shops, excellent accommodations and most services in a quaint western setting. Real estate values have been historically strong in Bigfork and this part of the Flathead Valley. Recently, the Bigfork Chamber of Commerce put together a neat little video about the area. Bigfork is unique in that it is unincorporated... that means that if you want something done you do it yourself as there is no government to ask! Doing it is often lead by the CFBB (Community Foundation for a Better Bigfork), and supported by various service organizations like Rotary Club of Bigfork (FB link), Lions Club, Masonic Lodge and Friends of Bigfork Schools. Such civic activity led Bigfork to be named one of the 100 best communities for young people in 2011 by the "America Promise Alliance" (chaired by Colin Powell). The neighborhoods of Ferndale, Woods Bay and Swan Lake are an extension of the village. Highway 35, also known as the Eastshore Route, offers a scenic drive south to Polson, MT overlooking beautiful Flathead Lake vistas through cherry orchards, and by lakefront homes both petite and grand. Southeast from Bigfork take the Swan Hwy (Hwy 83) and travel past Swan River, by Swan Lake into scenic Swan Valley south to Condon and Seeley Lake. Activities: News : Schools: Flathead County District: Restaurants & Dining in Bigfork: For upscale eating, dine in the old bank building at Showthyme, classic dining at the Bigfork Inn (FB link) or at the south end of Electric Avenue at LaProvence which is really run be an authentic French guy. Chris's Tea Cottage offers a spot of High Tea on the deck. Breakfast die hards eat at the Echo Lake Cafe (FB link)in "rural" Bigfork or the new kid of the block - Pocketstone Cafe on Electric Ave where the hot chocolate is most divine. If you want to take a scenic drive before dining, spend a few minutes getting out of town down the eastshore for barbecue at The East Shore Smoke House or an intimate lakefront meal at Many Springs Flathead Lake Resort (Hint - its best to make reservations). Pizza, as usual, deserves its own paragraph starting with award winning When In Rome (FB link), where you can pick it up by the slice or the pie. Take out is quick with family owned Rosa's Pizza (837-5751) at the south end of town. For wood fired style pizza choose Riley's Pub & Sports Bar at Mountain Lake Lodge in Woods Bay. Whew... I'm hungry now! Bigfork homes and land for sale:
