Allen's South Dakota Fishing and Hunting Lodge

Rooms are in need of renovation or demolition. Toilets in all upper units backed up upon arrival and had to use gas station bathrooms. Bedding smelled like it was in grandma's attic. Parking lot has ruts in it so deep almost unusable. I wish I had photos won't be returning.

If you enjoy fishing and hunting this is a place for you. The rooms are not fancy but do the job for sleeping and getting out of the weather. Mini fridge included TV, microwave and more.

We used just the guide service for walleye. We did not stay in the motel. The owner Allen was a real nice guy, we called only a few days in advance and at that moment they were able to accommodate us. The guide we had was great, all the boats were nice, caught our limit by 1pm, they cleaned the fish for us and bagged them. At the end there was a nice snack table with refreshments! Great price and nice people- would book a guide service here again without hesitation.

I mean the quality of the rooms isn’t the reason for a 1 star review instead it was the fact that the owner keeps his dogs locked/Kenneled up behind/next to the rooms. And last night those dogs wouldn’t stop barking from ~1130 pm to 2:30 am. We had to repeatedly go out and yell at them to shut up just to get 30 min of silence before they started up again. And it wasn’t like 1 bark a minute it was like 10 barks in 45 seconds. For . Hours… Outside the dog barking for hours, the rooms are okay for the price. There’s a microwave fridge and stove with burners to cook on. Bathroom was what you’d expect from ~70 buck a night stay. Although you only get soap no shampoo. I’d stay there again if the owner moved his dogs or locked them up with a bark collar

Would hit zero stars if I could. First off the website does not match the price on hotel and the fishing guide. The beds were terrible. The pillows were terrible, you could smell the last person who had slept there's breath. The beds had dirt and mud under them cearly never been cleaned. We found trash and pop bottles under our beds. Our room was directly behind a dog kennel nothing like hounds at 3 am. All of us woke up with bug bites. The door is not sealed properly, you could sticks fingers out of gaps. Would never let my wife stay here, you could easily record under the door. If you are using a card you will be charged 4 dollars per swipe. Parking is a nightmare can't imagine what it would be if all the rooms were full. The only thing I can say that is good about this place is the guid
