Description

Nestled on 115 breathtaking acres adjacent to the legendary Badlands National Park and overlooking the serene White River, this exceptional property was originally designed as a retreat and offers a unique combination of natural beauty, modern amenities, and endless possibilities. This versatile property is perfect for anyone looking to create a unique retreat, event center, or private estate in one of South Dakota's most scenic areas.This remarkable 115-acre parcel offers a unique opportunity to own a slice of the iconic Great Plains, situated adjacent to the awe-inspiring Badlands National Park and overlooking the meandering White River. The land is a rectangular tract, providing ample space for various uses ranging from commercial to a private retreat. Its proximity to the Badlands offers stunning panoramic views of the rugged landscape, making it a truly one-of-a-kind property. The terrain of this parcel is relatively flat, with gentle, rolling slopes that add subtle character to the landscape. The elevation across the land is relatively consistent, making it ideal for a variety of uses, including grazing, building, or simply enjoying the expansive views that unfold for miles. The soils are typical of the region, primarily composed of loamy and sandy loam soils, which are well-drained and suitable for grazing and native vegetation. The soil is generally fertile enough to support prairie grasses and hardy shrubs, though it may require amendments for more intensive agricultural uses. Due to its proximity to the Badlands, certain areas may have rocky or gravelly patches, particularly near the edges of the property, where the land transitions toward the more rugged terrain of the national park. The vegetation reflects the natural beauty and resilience of the Great Plains ecosystem. The land is covered predominantly by native prairie grasses, such as Buffalo Grass, Western Wheatgrass, and Blue Grama, which thrive in the semi-arid climate. These grasses provide forage for livestock and support the local wildlife. In addition to grasses, the land is dotted with hardy shrubs which are well-adapted to the region's dry conditions. In the spring and early summer, the parcel bursts into color with the blooming of wildflowers, including Coneflowers, Prairie Clover, and Black-eyed Susan, adding a vibrant touch to the landscape. The area features small clusters of trees, primarily Cottonwoods and Box Elders, especially near the White River. These trees provide shade and habitat for birds and other wildlife, making the area along the river particularly picturesque and serene.
