If there is one thing that we South Dakotans pride ourselves on, it is both our heritage and history, much of which can be traced back to original settlers who immigrated to the state during the 1800s. While we have heard the stories of our ancestors more times than we can count, we have never been able to walk in their shoes and live as they did, which is why places like the Badlands 1880 Homestead Cabin are a real South Dakota treasure:
Located near the aptly named community of Scenic, the Badlands 1880 Homestead Cabin is housed in an original 19th century home that invites you to "experience what it's like to be a homesteader out on the prairie."
Featuring 1 bedroom and 2 beds, the Homestead Cabin is as Old West as it gets, as it provides no electricity, bedding, or running water, but an unforgettable experience in other ways.
Thanks to its secluded location, the Badlands 1880 Homestead Cabin is arguably the quietest and most peaceful place in all of South Dakota, which is perfect for relaxing campouts and uninterrupted family time.
When you visit, be sure to pack not only bedding but water, food, firewood, and other supplies you may need to make your stay as comfortable as possible!
As if you need another reason to stay at the Badlands 1880 Homestead Cabin, each stay includes a delicious home-cooked breakfast, as well as incredible sunrises and sunsets like this.
Can you imagine beginning your day with a cup of coffee on the porch? I know I can!
A stay at the unforgettable Badlands 1880 Homestead Cabin is $55 per night and can be booked on Airbnb.
