Lake Front Fun, Pheasant Hunting, & Ice Fishing

Whether you are looking for a weekend away with friends or family time this ranch style lake cabin just over an hour from Sioux Falls is perfect. There is a open floor plan kitchen and living room with incredible lake views. This property has 75 ft of sandy beach and is only knee deep for a 100 ft off shore perfect for all of the water games. Have your morning coffee under the large covered porch while watching the pelicans catch their breakfast. Relax in the claw foot tub while enjoying a view of the lake. At night grill some dinner on the propane or charcoal grill and then enjoy a bonfire in the fire pit under the stars.
If you are a pheasant hunter or fisher this is the perfect spot for you with amazing fishing in the summer and ice fishing in the winter. There are 4 public hunting reserves within 15 miles for pheasant hunting.

Pheasant Hunt
The property was just want we needed for our first SD pheasant hunting weekend of 2023. All the amenities we needed. Clean and excellent location. The only thing that could have made it any better would be the addition of a hot tub on the wonderful back deck over looking the lake. Thanks for letting us stay.

Family vacation
Outside in pretty rough shape. Cleaned up the beach for about an hour before allowing the kids on it. The inside was clean and orderly. There was a paddle boat on the beach basically unusable. It was filthy and filled with very dirty, stinky water. The place definitely needs some TLC! We enjoyed our family time and made the best of our stay.

Great vacation!
We rented two properties for a family vacation and this was one of them. The owner quickly responded to any questions and was very helpful! Only con was the beach as it was pretty rocky for kids to play but they enjoyed swimming out pretty far since it was so shallow.

Thank you
Thank you, we had a great stay! I should tell you that you should check the back bedroom for fleas or bedbugs, or something. All three of my kids on all three mattresses in that room had to relocate and join us for last two nights of the stay. They were all three itchy and one had strange bites (not mosquito). The one bed in the small room and master bed were fine, not itchy. We saw jumping bugs in that hall bathroom (assume fleas) but not sure because we don’t have dogs.

Relaxing get away
My family and I had a wonderful time at the house. Here is what we thought was worth mentioning. Pros: -Amazing communication! -Wonderful beach and dock. -Water was amazing with plenty of room to play in it -Fishing off the dock was pretty good in the morning/evening. -House was very comfortable and relaxing. Cons: - Kitchen could use more cookware. (8x8, 9x13 pants, stuff like that). - Oven is dated. It is gas and some were nervous using it especially when one of the burners didn't seem to be working. Had significant stains on the top of it. - There is a camera facing front and back. Something to be aware of if you are sensitive to that. Owners were amazing with communication. AC wasn't working when we got there. They came over right away and luckily it was an easy fix. Would also be nice if there was a boat or kayaks available. The cons were very small in our opinions and we would absolutely stay here again!
