Five generations on the land. One enduring passion for the hunt.
Tucked into the rolling plains of Selby, South Dakota, Rieger Creek Lodge is more than just a destination — it’s a place where heritage runs deep, where the wind carries stories, and where the hunt is part of a way of life.
Our family has been farming this land for over a century. What began as a homestead has grown into a tradition — one rooted in care, respect, and a deep understanding of the balance between working the land and preserving its wild beauty.
“Our passion is sharing the beauty and tradition of South Dakota pheasant hunting.” -Steve and Christine Sawinsky
Rieger Creek Lodge started with one goal: to open this special place to others who share our love of the outdoors. Whether you’re here for the thrill of a pheasant flush or the camaraderie of a group hunt we’re here to make your experience unforgettable.
Our hunts are guided with care and local knowledge, shaped by decades of experience on this very land. But more than that, we aim to create a sense of connection — to the place, to the wildlife, and to each other.
At Rieger Creek Lodge, conservation isn’t just a buzzword — it’s a practice handed down through the generations. We continue to farm, to improve, and to protect what we’ve inherited, not just for ourselves, but for those who will walk this land long after us.
If you value good land, good company, and unforgettable hunts — we invite you to join us.
The land is ready. The lodge is warm. The creek is running.
