Meadow Song

At various times of the year, one may be “serenaded” by frogs gathered around the spring below.

Grandma's Ranch House
A much beloved addition to our lodging accommodations is also our oldest. Grandma's Ranch House was built in 1914. The restoration of this lovely cottage, backed by quaking aspen trees, was completed in 2011. This distinctive two-bedroom South Dakota ranch house features a full bath with period stylings such as a claw foot slipper bathtub and vanity with vessel bowl sink. It also has a fully-equipped kitchen with modern electric stove and refrigerator, a small antique farm table, wood-burning cook stove, and an old-fashioned hand pump. Although the latter two appliances are non-functioning, they serve as a reminder of the early 1900s. Grandma's Ranch House is also unique in that it is an historic building, is situated next to Newton Fork Creek, and has its own private yard making the perfect vacation rental for your trip back in time!

The latest addition to our ranch accommodations is the charming, warm, and inviting Postmaster’s House that is located on the southern edge of the property. It is a two-bedroom country home and is our only rental that offers WiFi and a large flat-screen television with surround sound. This warm and inviting home also features a wood-burning fireplace, a roomy kitchen with granite countertops, and a bathroom with a large bathtub and a separate shower. It was occupied by Hill City’s postmaster in the 1950s and has been lovingly remodeled. It faces Deerfield Road and includes a pull-through driveway plus ample parking. It also has front and back porches that are perfect for deer and bird watching. The creek and 109-mile Mickelson Hiking & Biking Trail are only steps away!

Original Badger Hole
The latest addition to our ranch is the historic “Original Badger Hole.” Charles “Badger” Clark (1883-1957) was South Dakota’s first poet laureate and is considered by many to be the pioneer of cowboy poetry. His poems have been recorded by such noted musicians as Johnny Cash, Emmylou Harris, and Bob Dylan.
We have lovingly restored his one-room cabin which is now available for nightly and weekly rental. If you have ever fantasized about turning back the clock to a simpler time or living “off the grid,” this is your opportunity. The Original Badger Hole is charmingly furnished in a western theme and features an environmentally friendly composting toilet in a period-style outhouse. The cabin is heated by a wood-burning pot-bellied stove. Old-fashioned wallmounted oil lamps provide evening light. It truly is a romantic and unique experience.
Sleeps: 2
Sleeping Arrangements: Queen sofa bed
Rates: Winter: $275, Spring: $295, Summer: $340, Autumn: $305

All rental cabins (with the exception of the Original Badger Hole which is "off-the-grid") include a full kitchen with refrigerator/freezer, electric cooking range and oven, microwave, dishes, utensils, cookware, coffee-maker, linens, towels, hair dryer, AM/FM radio and CD player, gas fireplace (note: Grandma's Ranch House features a wood-burning fireplace), gas barbecue, and air conditioning provided in the summer months.
Guests Traveling with Horses
We have two heavy-duty 12' x 12' paneled corrals available for a small rental fee. Located in a lovely aspen grove, there is also room for guests to erect their own electric fencing if preferred. Guests need to provide and feed their own horses and we require each out-of-state horse to have a within 30-day health certificate and within one year negative Coggins test.
