Cramer Creek is a non-profit residential treatment center and school for adolescents between the ages of 12 and 18.  Cramer Creek is located in the Garnet Range, approximately 30 miles east of Missoula, Montana.  The property is nestled in a beautiful valley including approximately 160 acres of evergreen pines, two perennial streams, and meadows that provide a beautiful setting and is ideal for horseback riding, hiking and other outdoor activities. The facility is all newly constructed including our administration building, dining hall, school, laundry, 5 cottages and a family cottage.

The property was chosen because it provides a private wilderness setting that is easily accessible to the resources of Missoula. With a population of 64,000, the “garden city” is rich in community resources, such as the University of Montana, medical services, social services, art galleries, museums, theaters, year-around recreation, and a great sense of community.  For more visit missoula www.city-data.com
