Some of the finest pheasant hunting in the world is found in the southwestern part of the State of South Dakota.  The LaCreek Wildlife Refuge is located in Bennett County near the Town of Martin, South Dakota on Rt.#18 between Mission and Pine Ridge, South Dakota.  The bunkhouse is located 1/4 mile northwest of The LaCreek Wildlife Refuge (click to see refuge map within the link).  Martin is the home to the largest population of Trumpeter Swans as well as a wide variety of other wildlife including ducks, geese, sharptail grouse, turkey, dove and of course South Dakota's State Bird - The Pheasant.  The entire LaCreek area, also supports an abundance of deer, elk and mountain lion.  It should be noted that this is one of the few areas where whitetail and mule deer coexist in the same habitat.

The hunting operation, owned by Tom Loomis was started in 1979 and has been host to many satisfied hunters with one group going on its 15th year of pheasant hunting at the Pheasant Tales Ranch & Bunkhouse.  With over 80,000 acres of public hunting ground there are many days when you will never see another hunter!
