The Horseshoe Cabin was built in 2001. This log cabin is one of 3 cabins located on our working cattle ranch. We are located in the heart of the Badlands, only 14 miles south of the Theodore Roosevelt National Park, North Unit, and 65 miles north of the TRNP South Unit. We have miles of hiking trails or riding trails if you prefer to bring your horses. This secluded cabin has it's own private hot tub and all your modern amenities but still has that rustic feel.

The space
24x18 one room log cabin. 2 queen beds on floor level and 2 twins bunked over the queens. Full kitchen, bathroom, spacious deck with private hot tub and BBQ. This cabin sits in a wooded draw with a view of rolling hills and trees. It does not have a badlands view as the trees and hills are blocking it, but Lone Butte and the badlands are 500 yards away. This is the best cabin for close up wildlife viewing. There is a cattle water tank 100 yards away and the deer come for water every evening around dusk. Turkeys, cows, calves, birds and coyotes are common to see. We usually feed cows around the cabin, so some people like to watch. This cabin is 1/4 mile away from Juniper Ridge Cabin and over 1/4 mile from Cedar Post. Our ranch road is in front of this cabin but we are the only people that are driving on it. Other cabin guests will not take this road as they are on the opposite side of the road. We don't have yard lights, so star gazing is excellent! There are private horse corrals with hydrant and barn if you decide to bring horses.

Other things to note
**It is important that you put the correct number of guests that will be with you during your stay, that also goes for pets as well. We do charge per person, above 2 people and we do have a pet fee. This also needs to be accurate, or you may not have the correct amount of supplies needed for your stay.

Our cows are around from October 15 to June 1. Outside of these dates, there are usually no cows in this section as they are in their summer pastures. Calving is March 25-May 25, so please give cows their space when they have babies. Dogs should be kept away from cows at all times. We have snow plows and will keep the roads open if possible, but 4WD vehicles are recommended during the winter months if we have snow. We do have rural water that's good to drink and fast fiber optic internet.
