About Us:

Bart and Tonya Ness and family would like to invite you on the hunt of a lifetime at Medicine Creek Ranch.  As a 20,000 acre working cattle ranch there is ample room for game species of all kinds to thrive, including mule deer, whitetail deer, pronghorn antelope, wild turkeys, pheasants, prairie dogs, sharp-tail grouse and prairie chicken.  The eight mile drive over hilly terrain and through the picturesque breaks to the Medicine Creek Ranch Lodge is both scenic and exhilarating. As the road winds down to the dense tree lined Medicine Creek bottom and wildlife from deer to porcupine come into view, you’ll know you have reached some of the best secluded hunting available in our fine state of South Dakota.  When you book a hunt with Medicine Creek Ranch you will be treated like family during your hunt and after.  The Ness’ look forward to seeing you this hunting season and many beyond.
