It is a nice place to stay. We where pleased with the accommodations. We visited family in Pierre, only needed a place to sleep. Had breakfast one morning, is was good. It was in the end of December and was off season. We will stay again!

The restaurant/lounge was very nice and food was incredible and reasonably priced. But the cleanliness of the cabin was not the best. Glob of hair in the shower and empty beer cans under the bathroom sink, along with huge cobwebs

The price was right, but it was essentially a hunting shack with very little else. I would not recommend for solo female travelers. It is about a 20 minute drive outside of Pierre. It's a good deal, but it's essentially a bed and a shower.
