Whether you're targeting one species or "The Grand Slam of the Dakota's", autumn in the Northern Plains means one thing...South Dakota upland bird hunting at Tumbleweed Lodge. The Chinese ring-necked pheasant may be king, but the untamed prairies of South Dakota are also home to Hungarian partridge, Sharp-tail grouse, and the elusive Greater prairie chicken.
Complimenting “The Grand Slam of the Dakota's” is a wide array of waterfowl species that pass through the hunting grounds in December as they travel south through the Missouri river flyway. Your stay will only be heightened by first class lodging amenities in their 18,000 sq. ft. lodge which can accommodate up to 24 guests.

Located 30 miles east of the Missouri River near Harrold, SD (elevation 1785'), the upland habitat hunting at Tumbleweed Lodge consists of light rolling terrain including a perfect blend of corn, sorghum, maize, and sunflower, shelter belts, western wheat grass, witchgrass, and waterways. For the hunter aiming for the "Grand Slam of the Dakotas"; alfalfa fields, rolling draws flowing with native grass, plum and buckbrush thickets provide the ideal habitat to sustain an ample population of prairie chicken, sharp-tail grouse, and Hungarian partridge. Due to the native habitat blended with the right mix of food plots and moisture; South Dakota is by far the leader in harvesting the Chinese ring-necked pheasant.

A. Gratuities are not expected but appreciated. It is common that guests leave a gratuity for the staff and many ask what is the amount of a normal gratuity. Gratuities range between 10 & 15% of the package price and may be paid upon settling up incidentals at the end of your stay. Typically 2/3 to 3/4 of the gratuity is then paid to the guides with the balance shared among the lodge staff. This has been a common practice and ensures that no staff member is inadvertently left out. Again, we strive to provide you the best service possible regardless of gratuity.
