Experience the Best Hunting in the Midwest

Welcome to your go-to hunting grounds! Whether it’s your first trip or your yearly tradition, hunting in South Dakota is a new experience every time. Pierre is surrounded by prairies and rivers that create the perfect natural habitat for grouse, prairie dogs, geese, and—last but not least—pheasants.

Pheasant Hunting in Pierre

Yes, all of our hunting and fishing opportunities are great, but there’s nothing quite like pheasant season around here. South Dakota has a hunting history that runs deep, and we offer everything you need to experience the season as it was meant to be. Better yet, our hotel is located along the Missouri River—which puts you at the center of the action.
