Off the beaten path, in the Black Hills of South Dakota, lies Alpine Prairie Lodge. At an elevation of 6000ft, it's located 3 miles north of gorgeous Deerfield Lake and 6 miles South of Rochford, SD on a very well maintained GRAVEL road, (very soon to be paved). Enjoy all the character and comfort of this beautiful 2600 sq ft Log Cabin with spectacular views of the surrounding National Forest and Sioux Sacred Tribal Land, Pe' Sla. This is a perfect cabin for a family getaway or simply a relaxing stay. Endless hiking and 4-wheeling opportunities abound from the property. The Mickelson Trail and Rapid Creek are within 6 miles. Roughly 35 - 45 minutes from Deadwood, Mt.Rushmore, Crazy Horse. The closest town, the quaint Hill City, is 18 truly beautiful miles to the Southeast. Only 28 Miles from the ski slopes of Terry Peak. Listen to the coyotes howl at dusk and dawn. The stars are simply amazing on a clear night including a spectacular view of the Milky Way! Excellent wildlife viewing from the cabin and surrounding areas.

The cabin was exactly as advertised. Very clean and comfortable. Check in process was a breeze and the property manager was very responsive with any questions we had. If you are looking for a place that allows you to be away from others, this is your place. Very peaceful and quiet. Just want the Dr. ordered for our family.

Didn't want to leave it was so nice
We had three generations of our family staying from ages 6 to 65 and this house was perfect for us. It was so clean and the views are spectacular. It was also so close to the trails and Deerfield Lake which so convenient. We drove our side-by-sides everyday and loved hoping on the trails so close to the Alpine Lodge.

Amazing property!!!
The cabin was more than we could have asked for. A group of 7 of us with 4 motorcycles stayed here for the Sturgis Rally. Greg was an amazing host and communicated so quickly when we had questions. The location is beautiful, the cabin had everything you could need, and 7 adults had more than enough room. Having motorcycles on the gravel road was pleasantly easy! The road is well maintained and having access to one side of the garage was a great selling point! Highly recommend this property & host! If you are ever wanting to stay here for the Rally it’s a perfect location puts you in the center of everywhere we wanted to ride! Thank you Greg for an amazing experience!

Beautiful cabin and view
We really enjoyed our stay & the cabin was perfect for our family. Lots of room and stocked with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Greg & Amanda were very accommodating. If you are looking for a serene place out in the country but still centrally located, this is the place for you.
