Winter stay

Attended an archery tournament in Yankton and the house was very conveniently located. Very clean and easy to find. The kids especially enjoyed playing in the snow and sledding down the small hill in the back yard. The only issue we had was it did snow a lot while we were there so it was difficult to get in and out of the slopes driveway. Luckily we were in a 4x4 truck but we did have to use 4x4 to get up the driveway.

Favorite Family Fun

Our two sons and their families joined us for a memorable vacation. Our grandchildren (ages 5 - 14) enjoyed using the various outdoor activities on the property and the Missouri River. During the day they went fishing, swimming, hiking and in the evening made smores. There was ample room for our group of 12 both inside and out. There were a variety of tv networks on the large screen, so a movie was shared in the evening. My granddaughter texted within an hour of our vacation to say "that was a fun trip"!! It was music to my ears. Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful home!

This property was perfect for our get together. But the bonus was the wild animals, the deer and the wild Turkey wandering through our yard, as we sat by a fire pit, was amazing. All this property has is what we needed. We celebrated birthdays and get-togethers here. It does not sit next to a lake, was the only thing we saw as odd, not accurate. The bike trails were close and so was Lewis and Clark landing. Not too bad from yankton the city itself. Overall, a 10 out of 10 highly recommend this
