Prairie Elk Colony balances quiet, working-land rhythms with easy connections to essential services across McCone County. The open prairie and Missouri River breaks shape daily life here—wide horizons, productive fields, and skies bright with stars. Groceries, clinics, and youth sports are a short drive to Circle, the county seat, while regional shopping, medical care, and flights are accessible in Wolf Point and Glendive.
Outdoors, residents make the most of world-class habitat and water. Weekend adventures range from glassing for elk and pheasants to chasing walleye. Day trips to the sweeping badlands and shorelines of the Charles M. Russell National Wildlife Refuge and educational outings at the Fort Peck Interpretive Center add depth for nature lovers and history buffs alike.
Families are well served academically. Local K–12 students are supported through Circle Public Schools, with small class sizes, FFA, athletics, and bus routes that understand rural schedules. For continuing education, trades, and dual-enrollment opportunities, Dawson Community College in Glendive provides accessible programs that fit ranch and farm calendars.
