Mountrail County unfolds across big-sky horizons and the broad bays of Mountrail County, where communities like Stanley, New Town, and Parshall balance small-town familiarity with room to grow. Weekends often lead to walleye on the line and sunsets over Lake Sakakawea, with ample access for boating, beaches, and year-round trails. Local services are easy to navigate thanks to a responsive county government, and you’re within practical driving distance of job centers in Williston and Minot.
Heritage is front and center on the Fort Berthold Reservation, home of the MHA Nation. Cultural events, the striking Four Bears Bridge views, and entertainment at Four Bears Casino & Lodge add energy to the calendar, while lifelong learners find programs and community at Nueta Hidatsa Sahnish College.
Families appreciate schools that know students by name. Stanley Public Schools, New Town Public Schools, and Parshall Public Schools offer academics, arts, and athletics shaped by local pride and partnerships with the region’s outdoors and industry. Housing options range from in-town bungalows to newer builds with shop space, and everyday essentials—from healthcare to hardware—are close at hand.
