About this property

A hidden gem tucked into the inlet of Wall Lake, just 10 minutes west of Sioux Falls, SD! Not only a fishermen’s paradise, it’s also great for a calm kayak or paddle board ride, or venture straight out into the lake to enjoy a swim. At night enjoy roasting marshmallows by the fire and lounging in a hammock. The sunsets over the farmland will take your breath away. In the winter, enjoy your own private ice skating rink. The perfect getaway for a family and stocked with baby gear if needed.

The space
From our large deck, you’ll walk directly into the main level of our home and when you head downstairs you will walk right out to the waterfront. The inlet is the perfect place to do some fishing or hop into a kayak or onto a paddle board (provided) and paddle out to Wall Lake. Power boats/jet skis (that you may bring) are able to come into the inlet and could be tied up to our dock using your own supplies. Kids may not mind swimming in the inlet, but adults will enjoy the water quality at the swim beach more. The public beach is just a short drive or beautiful walk away. During the winter, as weather conditions allow, we keep an "ice rink" cleared off and we have an assortment of ice skates available. (Size inventories of life jackets and ice skates are in the house rules.)

Guest access
You are able to access the entire home aside from a locked office. We will have two kayaks, a paddle board, and an assortment of life jackets available for your use.

There are a few closets that we would also request you not enter as they are for personal belongings and will be marked accordingly. We have an outer building that will also be locked and unavailable for your use.

Please let us know if you are expecting visitors above and beyond those registered guests. This is a great place for hosting others, which Is why we decided to make it our home. However, additional visitors must be disclosed and may be required to pay a "Day Use" fee. Please contact us for details.

Girls trip

We traveled from Rapid City and Tulsa, OK to gather for Freeman’s Schmeckfest. The location worked great for us, and since we had 7 grandkids that ranged in age from 3 months to 10 years of age, the basement was a great place to send them to burn off energy! The kitchen was fabulous! The bed configuration worked okay for us, but if husbands had been with us, I don’t think it would have worked as well. Our only negatives were the lighting in both bathrooms is terrible for getting ready. Replacing the round bed with a true King sized bed should be done, as the bed wasn’t very comfortable for my daughter and her 2 toddlers that used it.

Fun Family Stay

We stayed at the property for a multigenerational Thanksgiving holiday with a side of pheasant hunting. It was a great place that accommodated a group of 8 with a couple well trained pups. Very convenient to have some space in the garage for staging of hunting gear/dog crates. We were able to cook and enjoy a pretty extensive holiday meal…the only item we wish we had was a meat thermometer, which is hardly to be expected! Would love to stay again given the convenience to Sioux Falls and our family connections!

Serenity

The environment was very peaceful and serene. It was chilly so we didn't spend much time outside. We are looking forward to booking this another time and getting more time to explore the lake and possibly sit outside in the evenings. The house was big enough for a large family and well stocked for general things that are required for a comfortable stay. We enjoyed cooking and eating around a large enough table to accommodate eight people.

A wonderful summer getaway

This cabin was the perfect spot for our 2 families of 4 to meet up and have a lovely long summer weekend together. Upon entering the house we were welcomed with such a homey feel. The amount of books were just amazing! The layout was great for two families (each having their own space). The house had a nicely stocked kitchen, games to play, soaps for bathroom, kitchen and laundry. I would recommend bringing some beach towels as there are many bath towels but if heading to the lake can be nice to have some beach towels. The canal was very shallow (less then a foot) but we were able to park the fishing boat by the dock and it was just a short paddle on the kayaks and paddle board to the lake. The canal and lake had lots of algae but nothing that stopped anyone from swimming in the lake. We had a great time and would recommend this lovely place to anyone and especially if you have kids!

About the host

Hosted by Jessica Anderson

Welcome to the Wall Lake Getaway! We are a family of 6 and have hosted groups in our home for over 3 years. Lando is the Pastor of a little country church just north of where we live. We love the outdoors and being on the water and are excited to be raising our family out in the simplicity of this setting. We used to run Lutheran Camps and Conference Centers so we are no stranger to hosting guests and groups and thoroughly enjoy doing it!

Why they chose this property

Just 10 minutes west of Sioux Falls, this home will give you the best of both worlds - being close to SO many wonderful things to do AND the peace and serene atmosphere of being able to escape to the country and enjoy the outdoors.

What makes this property unique

We have two kayaks, a paddle board, a large jumbo hammock, fire pit and trampoline for you to enjoy during the warmer weather. In the winter we try and keep the frozen inlet prepared as an "ice rink" and provide an assortment of sizes of ice skates (but it never hurts to bring your own!
