We just had our wedding here at High Country Guest Ranch on October 12th, 2025 and it was absolutely amazing!! We 100% recommend having your wedding here or family reunion or whatever the occasion may be!! Tina and Bob who manage the ranch and the other employees are so friendly and they went above and beyond for us!!
Bob went above and beyond. We stayed with our horses using both an RV site and the Red barn for lodging. When a massive storm front was coming through, we were worried about our horses in their open-air stalls. Bob hauled a lean to over for them. The Red Barn was a phenomenal family house for 6 of us.
High Country Guest Ranch was more than just a venue for my son’s wedding...it became part of the memory itself. Nestled in the Black Hills, the views were absolutely breathtaking, but what truly made this place extraordinary was the people. The staff went above and beyond in every possible way.
The stay at High Country Guest Ranch was truly beautiful! The rustic and peaceful ambiance of the ranch were charming upon arrival. The home was clean and inviting, with comfortable furnishings and thoughtful details throughout.
