2049 Government Dam Road, Soda Springs, ID 83276

The Hilda Thompson Ranch, located approximately four and a half miles northwest of Soda Springs, Idaho, is an expansive agricultural holding with recreational value and long-term investment potential. Established in the early 1900s, this historic ranch has evolved into a productive agricultural and cattle grazing operation with established income streams, water resources, and functional infrastructure. The ranch operates under a rotational grazing system capable of supporting approximately 200 pair of cattle on ground not in CRP. The perimeter is mostly fenced with extensive cross-fencing. Comprising five contiguous parcels with year-round access and frontage on both sides of Government Dam Road, the property spans a diverse landscape of cropland, open meadow with meandering creek, and wildlife habitat. According to the USDA, 975.36 acres are designated cropland, with approximately 857 acres currently enrolled in the CRP program generating about $50,000 annually, with roughly seven years remaining on the contract. Water resources include year-round Soda Creek, which supports thriving populations of waterfowl. The ranch has submitted water rights claims of 3+ CFS on approximately 900 acres. Infrastructure includes a 2,400 square foot shop, 2,340 square foot original barn, large cattle corral with chute, a three-sided implement and tractor shed, and five aerated grain bins with a combined capacity of 75,000 bushels. A farmhouse built around 1945 and remodeled in 1990 offers approximately 842 square feet on the main level plus crawl space for storage. Additional value includes a cinder mine resource and two short-term leases ending December 31, 2026, involving buildings, infrastructure, and select grazing. The ranch borders expansive public ground managed by the Bureau of Land Management. The ranch also hosts a 110-acre wetland habitat project developed through a conservation easement with the Idaho Department of Fish and Game through 2030.
