Rexford is located in the timberlands of northwestern Montana, north of Libby along the Kootenai River and just seven miles south of the Canadian border. The town was moved two miles from its original location when the 420-foot-high Libby Dam was built creating the 90-mile-long Lake Koocanusa. Nearby is Ten Lake Scenic Area of the Kootenai National Forest, offering more than 89 miles of trails of remote backpacking and hiking opportunities through rugged terrain with spectacular mountain views.
