We purchased the property for use as a honey bee ranch. We no long keep bees, but we still love to go out to the country, and garden, and just enjoy the peace and quiet.

Please, don't make a reservation, and then invite a bunch of people to join you. Your guests aren't my guests, but can be.
Just a field near the Big Sioux River. Amenities will be added, as demand warrants. Lots of peace and quiet. Still close to Dell Rapids SD, for gas, bait, groceries, etc.
We believe in equality for all, Top Freedom Friendly!

We easily located Brian's spot and enjoyed exploring the cute town of Luverne as well as Beaver Creek (The Cidery!) as well as Sioux Falls.
For larger rigs I would recommend spots 1 or 2. We ended up in spot 4 and we fit in it just fine, but we're not the best at backing up and it took us several tries due to the angle. (That's on us, not Brian!)

We stayed here twice- once on our way west and again on our way back home. Sites are mostly level and very easy to get into. It's extremely affordable for the amenities provided and a great option for a place to rest for the night. It'll definitely stay on our list as a stopover for future trips out west.
