Sleeping Accommodations-

There is a queen bed in a room with a door that is perfect for the parents. If you're traveling with kids, they will be best suited on the twin bunk bed setup which is located in the main living area of the cabin. If you're traveling with four adults it may be most comfortable to use the lofted space with the twin mattress in the loft space.

There is a full bathroom with a stand up shower, toilet, storage shelves, and a sink. We offer soaps, towels, and paper products for your convenience.



Hot Tub-

You have access to the private hot tub to use at your discretion. We do request that you take great care of the hot tub as it's brand new and we do the best we can to keep it in the best working order and as clean as possible for your enjoyment.



Outdoor enjoyment-

You are welcome to explore the land directly around the cabin and the land leading to the river. Explore the area at your own discretion. Keep in mind wildlife will be within sight and earshot while in and around the cabin. Please keep distance between your cabin and the other cabin as guests are enjoying their own private time as well.



Pets-

Note that this is not a pet-friendly space. We strive to make your stay at River Bluff Cabins as relaxing and enjoyable as possible. Violation of the pet fee will incur a $150 pet violation fee.



Traveling with more than four guests and bringing a camper?

There is an option to have a camper hooked up as an addition to your stay at the cabin. We have a water hydrant and electrical hookups for additional groups traveling to the area with you. Please add those guests to your reservation as there is an additional charge for the additional guests.



Guest Access:

You will have access to the entire second cabin and the land immediately around the cabin. You are welcome to adventure down to the river as the property is owned by the owner of the cabins. However, there is a barbed wire fence and there may be cows in the field. So, please only venture down there at your discretion.



Inside the cabin, please do not access the storage totes under the twin bed and the tote in the loft that are labeled "No Guest Access" storage space is limited inside the cabin and expect that you respect our items that are stored for our turnover cleaning process only.



Other Things to Note:

Cabin

The cabin comfortably sleeps four guests. Additional guests are not allowed, except for infants who can occupy a pack 'n play. The cabin features a lot of natural, exposed wood, which may cause slivers, stubbed toes, or scrapes from sharp edges. Guests with limited mobility might find the small spaces challenging to navigate. The lofted area can be hazardous for infants and young children; you can move the ladder in the loft to prevent access, if needed.



Activities

Hunting is not allowed on the property at any time. Fishing is permitted at the creek, but it requires a walk to reach. Enjoy activities such as playing games, drawing, writing, listening to music, meditating, relaxing in the hot tub, taking small walks in the prairie, and observing wildlife. A quick 8 minute drive will bring you to East Lake Vermillion where there is public access to a beach, fishing docks, restrooms, volleyball court, picnic tables and a shelter.



Resources

The nearest town is about 10-15 minutes away and there are no gas stations or laundromats nearby. Any services you may need will require a 10+ minute drive. Our guidebook includes recommendations for local bars and restaurants.



Bugs

You will encounter bugs during your stay, both inside and outside the cabin. Expect to see spiders, mosquitoes, flies, and various other insects native to South Dakota. While we provide bug spray, we highly recommend bringing your own for added protection.



Wildlife

During your stay, you may encounter various wildlife. In the field, you might see cows, snakes, raccoons, coyotes, foxes, rabbits, prairie dogs, and more. Remember, we are in their natural environment, so please be mindful and respectful of their space.
