South Dakota Hunting Lodges
El Jefe Lodge
The El Jefe lodge was completed in 2016. A better name for the El Jefe lodge may be Twin Elms lodge, since many of the unique touches found throughout the lodge were made from two towering American elm trees that were harvested and milled on site by craftsmen. The open kitchen and adjacent dining areas with fireplaces, coffee bar, vaulted ceilings create a festive and engaging setting. Two spacious patio decks adjacent to the banquet area make for an ideal spot to enjoy the South Dakota wildlife and the majestic sunrises and sunsets as you unwind after the hunt or enjoy your morning coffee. Two living spaces finish off the upper level of the El Jefe lodge, the Master suite, which has en suite bathroom and entertainment center and the three bedroom family suite which is suited perfectly for small parties or families. The lower level of the lodge features the bar, poker and pool tables, lounge area, cigar room and three private rooms en suite bathrooms. This area attracts the biggest story tellers.
Lakeview Lodge
The Lakeview Lodge by Double P overlooks the beautiful Lamb’s Slough (aka Dry Lake). The lodge has five bedrooms and two bathrooms. The upper floors feature a vaulted Great Room with a full open kitchen and walk out wrap-around deck overlooking the Double P orchard. The lower level walkout has two bedrooms and bathroom with a walk-in rain shower. The level of the lodge has a pool table and cozy lounge. In the cooler months the in-floor geo-thermal heating provides welcoming environment when coming in from the cold.
