Lakeside Getaway Just West of Sioux Falls

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.

Swimming in the inlet is not advised, but it's perfect for calm kayaking and paddle boarding. 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.

Guest access
You are able to access the entire home. Seasonally we will have two kayaks, a paddle board, and an assortment of life jackets available for your use. In the winter will will have ice skates.

Great place for a family getaway!
This property matched the listing. It was clean and comfortable. The accommodation was perfect for a big family. The location wasn't close to any restaurants or stores, but it is on a lake so if you're looking for a getaway this is a perfect place! Our hosts were easy to work with and made us feel welcome.

Such a great home, great hosts!
We had such a great stay, the home was so roomy and clean. We had a girls trip and this ended up being the perfect place. The weather was rainy in the morning so we weren’t able to utilize the dock right off the property, but we did go to the public beach that afternoon and it was very clean. We only had to reach out once to the hosts during our stay and they were quick and kind with their response. We had a party of 7 in total and there was more than enough room for us. We would absolutely stay here again.

Great place to relax and hang out with family! Lots of spaces to gather together or have some quiet time on your own. No hot tub that's listed just a jacuzzi tub. Be sure the check out the Outdoor Conservation Learning Area down the road & the new short 9 hole disc golf course @ Wall Lake Park!

Quiet location
We enjoyed our 2 days here on the lake. We liked that the house was out of the hustle and bustle and had almost everything you could need. Beds were small for our teenage kids and house could use some updating. House is geared more for little ones.

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!

Beautiful home, some things didn’t quite match the description
We loved our time here! The house was comfortable and had plenty of room for our family of six. We loved the books available to read and kayaking to the beautiful lake was a blast! We planned our time according to the online description. The water was much too low to paddle board, we had hoped to learn but it hit the muddy bottom of the inlet. If you are bringing a boat make sure it is deep enough. Not much can go where the water is under 2 feet in the middle of the inlet. Check right before coming. It was stated that the swim beach was a nice walk away. It’s actually a 1.2 mile walk along gravel and a blacktop road with no shoulder, completely unsafe for walking with children. We planned on my husband walking there with some kids while the youngest napped, then the rest of us driving over. That was disappointing and we only ended up swimming one day. We kept busy and had fun, but there is a great value in knowing what to expect.

Great place for kids
The home was spacious and had everything we needed. It was a great place for kids. The hostess was quick to respond to questions. Unfortunately a heavy rain the weekend before had washed stock pond materials into the inlet, causing heavy algae and a putrid smell that lasted our entire time. This made the outdoors basically unusuable. Also, VRBO was not clear that there was an additional $10/night charge for each additional guest over 5 people, in spite of the fact that it was advertised able to house 11. The area was nice, but we were disappointed not to be able to use the kayaks on the inlet.
