A bed, made up
Modern ranch home lodging with beds, linens and towels provided. Some parties stay with individual ranch families — either way you are in a house, not a tent.
Lodging & Meals
A modern ranch home, beds made up, and a catered gourmet meal waiting when you come off the hill. All of it included in the price of the hunt.
Camp
Ranch hospitality, not a motel room
Dakota Safaris will take care of your needs during your hunt. Your guide picks you up at pre-dawn and has you back for a catered gourmet meal in the evening. Special beef cuts and steaks have been a priority with our hunters for as long as we have been guiding.
At our hunting camp you stay at a modern ranch home where beds, linens and towels are provided — nothing to haul in, nothing to set up. All clients either stay at our main camp or with individual ranch families, and every meal and necessary amenity is included in the price of the hunt.
Hunting transportation is in four-wheeled drive vehicles, so you can travel into the heart of the rough country instead of looking at it from a road. Dakota Safaris guides are experienced ranch hands who know the terrain and the hideouts where the wall hangers live.
What camp includes
Meals, all of them
Breakfast before daylight, something to carry, and a catered gourmet dinner in the evening. Special beef cuts and steaks are a camp tradition.
4WD transportation
Hunting transportation in four-wheel-drive vehicles gets you into the heart of the rough country and your deer back out of it.
One party at a time
More than 150,000 acres are reserved exclusively for our hunters. During your hunt you are unlikely to see anyone outside your own group.
