You may bring your own horse and ride here on the ranch with wonderful panoramic views of the Black Hills, the prairie and the Badlands to the east. Within a short drive there are trailheads on some of the most scenic trails in the country. See Mt. Rushmore from the back of your horse or experience the breathtaking view of five states from the top of Harney Peak . Ride through the buffalo herd in Custer State Park .
Guests are welcome to hike on the ranch.
We'll take you up to the pasture to see the cattle and you can watch the foals frolic with their mothers. This historic ranch was settled by my family in 1917 and a claim shack that one of the original settlers lived in still stands. While we are very modern, we have used items from those early days in our decor to help you experience some of what life was like then. Allow yourself to be taken back to the days of the outlaws, stage coaches and early settlments and imagine yourself staying at one of the ranches back when the stage coach stopped to change horses and let travelers rest overnight. Or, perhaps you've ridden in on your horse from a long day and need a good night's rest and a good breakfast and rest for your horse, before you head out tomorrow for another day of horseback riding in the Black Hills.
