Glacial Lakes Lodge is located on the banks of Cottonwood Lake in the hills of northern Codington County. The home, lodge, and land have all been meticulously manicured to create the ultimate South Dakota recreational experience.The LandGlacial Lakes Lodge is strategically designed with upland habitat, food plots, shelterbelts, and wetlands to create excellent habitat for pheasants, whitetail deer, waterfowl, and turkeys. All of the CRP acres expired in 2022, creating flexibility for the new owner to enroll new CRP acres or convert those acres to additional cropland or pastureland. There are currently multiple food plots strategically designed throughout the upland habitat. Outside of the CRP and tillable acres are 79.3 acres of NRCS wetland reserve program easement acres. This is a 30-year program that expires in 2043. The north property boundary is over 3,000 feet of Cottonwood Lake shoreline, offering excellent waterfowl hunting opportunities for ducks and geese throughout the fall. Scattered throughout the food plots, CRP, and wetlands are shelterbelts. This diverse combination of habitat sets up great for whitetail deer hunting. With 4 Tower Blinds already in place, this turnkey property is ready to hunt this fall.The HomeWith breathtaking 360-degree views sits the main home.
