Located 15 miles from the Canadian border into Saskatchewan, Scobey, Montana offers a wide array of outdoor options for tourists. Scobey has a plethora of deer and antelope for big game hunters; pheasants, grouse, ducks and geese for bird hunters; and rivers for fishing. Lodging options in town include the Cattle King Motor Inn and the Juel Motel, each located near prime hunting and fishing areas.
Located on Highway 13 south , the Cattle King Motor Inn offers accommodations for both Scobey tourists and truckers passing through the town. Amenities include free HBO and wireless Internet in each room, free continental breakfast and an available executive/bridal suite with king-sized beds and a jacuzzi. Next door is a combination restaurant, lounge and casino.
The Juel Motel, on Main Street in the heart of Scobey, offers free high-speed Internet, microwaves and refrigerators in each room. During peak hunting and fishing seasons, advanced reservations are highly recommended as rooms fill up quickly.
Scobey maintains its old pioneer spirit, and nowhere is this more evident than in the last weekend of June, when the town throws its annual Pioneer Days festival. Held at and around the Dirty Shame Saloon, the festival features variety shows, a "thresherman's breakfast" of pancakes and sausage using old pioneer methods, a parade, and other children's themed festivities.
The town's pioneer history is also on display at the Daniels County Museum & Pioneer Town, featuring 35 historic buildings restored to resemble an early-1900s pioneer town. Scobey also features a nine-hole golf course, ice skating rink, bowling alley, a roping area, and hundreds of acres of hunting and fishing.
