A wonderful place to stay

We really enjoyed staying at Nomad lodge. We had a party of 5 and were in the area to do some Pheasant hunting and the lodge slept all of us and had enough space and amenities to keep all of us comfortable. The property was very clean, spacious and wonderfully decorated. Mike and Marsha were welcoming and friendly and made sure that our stay was comfortable. I would highly recommend this property if you are in the area.

For adults only

Not the place to stay if you have children or furbabies, hides and mounts, adorned the the future but we were not to touch. Understandable, but not with children, I have geriatric dogs that had to remain kennelled so I did not feel comfortable leaving them because they get stiff so easy and became difficult for them to get around. I thought the charges occured were more than they should have been for a town the size of Leola SD. I would not return

Awesome Leola Lodge

The Lodge that Marsha and Mike have is awesome! It’s a barndominum style and is an awesome spot for any kind of stay. Great yard for the dogs to let their energy out and awesome back patio. We were there for a hunting trip and it worked out great for keeping our gear safe in the lodge/shop. Make sure to bring a kennel for the dogs to sleep in the finished and heated shop. Would recommend staying here for any traveler.
