Trophy-quality whitetail utilizes the thick brush and dense timber stands of the Hidden Lake Ranch as a refuge.

Many other species, such as grouse, turkey, and elk, live on and around the ranch, providing incredible hunting opportunities on your own piece of paradise. Almost garnering the name “Whitetail Haven” or “Long Range Ranch” speaks volumes to the type of property this could be for the outdoorsman.

FISHING While the private lake on the ranch does not currently have fish, stocking options with the state or private fish producers are an option.

Nearby, the Pend Oreille River, Diamond Lake, Priest Lake, and Lake Coeur D’Alene are all within an hour’s drive and provide ample fishing opportunities for all levels of fishermen.

AREA HISTORY Elk, Washington, is a small community with a rich history rooted in the early 20th century. Initially a logging and railroad town, Elk flourished due to its strategic location on the Spokane International Railroad line. The town’s economy was driven by the surrounding dense forests and the bustling timber industry, which played a pivotal role in its development.

As the timber resources began to wane and the railroad’s significance diminished, Elk transitioned into a quieter, rural community. Despite its smaller size and less bustling activity compared to its earlier years, Elk retains a strong sense of historical charm and continues to be a peaceful residential area. Its scenic landscapes and proximity to natural attractions have preserved its appeal as a serene retreat while maintaining its historical roots in the timber industry.
