The Ultimate Live-Work Investment in Big Sky Country
Located in the heart of the "Bullshipper Capital of the World," the Drummond Motel offers a rare opportunity to own a turnkey, diversified business and residential complex. Situated perfectly off I-90 between Missoula and Butte, this property captures high-visibility traffic from travelers exploring the Pintler Scenic Highway and local historical landmarks.
The Property Highlights
This 2-acre estate features three distinct revenue streams and a private residence:
9-Unit Motel: Clean, well-maintained rooms facing the main thoroughfare. Known for "spacious rooms with vaulted spruce ceilings" and family-friendly rates, this is a staple for travelers and seasonal workers.
1 Additional Apartment: A 1-bedroom / 1-bath unit located at the rear of the property.
Owner/Manager’s Quarters: A comfortable 2-bedroom, 2-bath private residence with an attached office—perfect for an owner-operator or on-site manager.
Massive 2,000 Sq. Ft. Barn/Garage: A versatile space that can be used for storage, a workshop, or even converted for additional business use.
Why Invest in Drummond?
Prime Location: Easy one-floor access just minutes from I-90. Drummond is the gateway to the Pintler Scenic Highway and the historic Garnet Ghost Town.
Diversified Income: Unlike a standard motel, the apartment units ensure a stable "floor" for your monthly revenue, while the motel rooms offer high-margin seasonal upside.
Turnkey Amenities: Each motel room is equipped with flat-screen TVs, microwaves, refrigerators, and high-speed WiFi. The property also features a large grassy guest area with a BBQ pit, fire circle, and mountain views.
Recent Growth: The Southwest Montana region is seeing a surge in tourism and remote-work residents looking for authentic Montana charm.
