About the host

Hosted by Nick Hochstein

Host profile image
Lydia is from Ohio and Nick is from Yankton, SD. We met in Florida and relocated back to SD to be close to family and enjoy the lake life. We love the outdoors (running, hiking, biking, boating, etc.) and the smaller community. This is our first experience hosting but would love to share our home with others.

Why they chose this property

We are avid trail runners and love the lake. This home has always been a dream and we want to share it. As a guest, you have access to running, hiking, mountain biking, and horse trails right outside the front door. Just down the road, jump on a paved trail with your road bike, tri-bike or e-bike. As a guest you have access to archery, frisbee golf, boat ramp with parking, and a public beach with bathrooms, grills and playgrounds

What makes this property unique

You'll be staying in a private home in one of South Dakota's best State Parks (Lewis and Clark Recreation Area).
