Welcome to Wakonda
A place to slow down, breathe in the lake air, and rest in rooms that feel like coming home — right in the heart of Wakonda, South Dakota.
There's a particular kind of warmth that comes from a place that has been open its whole life — where the regulars know your name, the floors creak with history, and every corner has a story to tell.
Wakonda Hotel & Bar sits just steps from the shores of Lake Wakonda, offering a quiet retreat that honors the simplicity and grace of small-town hospitality. Whether you're passing through or staying a while, we'd like you to feel at ease.
Each room is thoughtfully kept — clean, comfortable, and designed so you can simply unwind without a worry.
Standard
A quiet, comfortably furnished room with a queen bed — perfect for a solo traveler or a couple seeking a restful night.
Deluxe
More space for the whole family, featuring two double beds and a cozy sitting area — ideal for longer stays.
Premium
Wake up to the shimmer of Lake Wakonda through large windows — the finest view we have, and our most requested room.
From the moment you arrive, there's something different about Wakonda Hotel & Bar — a sense of ease you don't find everywhere.
Unwind at our classic hotel bar — a relaxed gathering place for a cold drink, a good conversation, and the kind of evening that lingers.
Boat launch, fishing, swimming — the lake is right outside your door. Summer days here move at the pace of a gentle ripple.
Conveniently located just off the main road with ample parking — an easy stop whether you're driving through or settling in for days.
No corporate check-in kiosk here. You'll be greeted by name, helped with your bags, and treated like a guest — not a reservation number.
Give us a call to check availability or ask any questions — we're always happy to help you plan your stay.
