Overview
Montana Hot Springs Resort Business
Sleeping Buffalo Hot Springs is a fully operational resort located off Highway 2, 17 miles east of Malta and 10 miles west of Saco. This historic property blends modern amenities with a rich heritage. The resort includes lodging, gourmet dining, event space, and mineral pools. The hot springs facility is fed by a 3,200-foot artesian well drilled in 2021, producing mineral-rich water at a consistent temperature of 106-108°F. The hot springs complex underwent renovation in 2014 and includes a 60' x 80' indoor main pool, a 10' x 30' hot tub, a cold plunge pool, sauna, and a conference room. All pools use non-chlorinated, flow-through mineral water systems. The outdoor pool, added in 2025, measures 128' x 60' and features underwater lighting, water features, and a hot tub, surrounded by a spacious turf lounge. The natural artesian spring water contains minerals such as silica, sulfates, calcium, and magnesium. On-site accommodations include five refurbished cabins, three modern hotel-style rooms, and a campground with 31 full-service RV sites, a bathhouse with restrooms and six showers, and a tent camping area. The guest cabins feature a luxury rustic design with full kitchens and living areas. All buildings except the cabins are heated entirely by hot water from the artesian well. The property is equipped to operate on generator power. Built in 2023, 54 Prime Steakhouse features a commercial-grade kitchen, in-floor radiant heating, a metal roof, hardwired security and sound systems, and a 30' x 35' outdoor patio. The adjoining Buffalo Saloon offers a welcoming space for drinks and social gatherings. Much of the restaurant's produce is sourced from the on-site 30' x 96' greenhouse, while a resident flock of chickens provides fresh eggs. The sale includes a full liquor license, as well as gambling, catering, bingo, and tobacco licenses, all transferrable.
