Welcome to the famed Big Shot Pheasant Lodge, sitting on 400 deeded acres of immaculate pheasant habitat. Located 35 minutes South of Aberdeen, South Dakota. The Big Shot Lodge offers 15 Bedrooms and can sleep over 20 guests. Once ran as a commercial pheasant lodge, now is a friends and family hunting retreat. The Big Shot Lodge is being sold (turn-key) and is ready for the next owner to come in and chase wild South Dakota roosters. Land The Big Shot Lodge is made up of diverse habitat including corn fields, CRP grasses, natural cover, and mature shelter belts. There are two ponds on the property that hold water year-round. Pheasants, along with Whitetail Deer, need food, cover and water. The Big Shot Lodge provides all three attributes, combined with the lodge’s location, makes this a “Blue Ribbon Property”. The fields have been professionally designed to benefit wildlife and laid out with the sportsmen in mind for easy walking. Improvements The Main Lodge consist of 10 bedrooms and offers a commercial quality kitchen. Enjoy a beverage at the large bar or practice your putting on the putting green behind the lodge. Big Shot was specifically designed for entertaining large groups of guests. There are 5 additional bedrooms located across the yard in a sperate shop building. These bedrooms are perfect for guides in the Fall, or overflow bedrooms for friends and family. There is a large dog kennel with indoor and outdoor runs already in place. Big Shot Lodge also has 4 RV slips with power, water, and septic at each location. The shop building provides plenty of dry storage for tractors, UTVs, and vehicles. There are newer commercial freezers for food or game storages. Recreation This region of South Dakotas is well known for one the States most precious resources, the Ring Neck Pheasant. Hunters travel far and wide to have the opportunity to walk the fields and sloughs of South Dakota. Every October the cackle of the Ring Neck Pheasant draws hunters, friends, and family together to enjoy comradery around one of the great American pastimes. Broker Notes: This is one of the best put together properties we have marketed. The term “turn-key” doesn’t do the Big Shot justice. The same farmer has farmed the property for years and would be interested in continuing the farming. Sitting at 400+/- acres it’s the perfect size for a private hunting retreat or ran as a commercial operation. The deer hunting on the property is as good as the pheasant hunting with bucks being taken in the 150-160 range. The property lays out perfectly for any number of hunters. You could hunt the property with a small group, yet it has plenty of space to accommodate large groups of pushers and blockers. The waterfowl hunting in this region of South Dakota is world class. When the migration of ducks and geese come through it is a sight to be seen. Come see it for yourself.
