We booked the Circle View for three nights mainly due to the great reviews found here on tripadvisor. These people weren't wrong! In fact, I'm not sure words can adequately describe how happy we were with our Circle View Ranch experience. If you want easy access to commercialized tourist-centered restaurants and activities...this isn't the place for you. If you want... more

We went back to Circle View for our third time since 2004. We plan our vacation around their availability. Phil and Amy are wonderful hosts. Their cat Cowboy and dog Hank along with their three burros make guests feel welcome and safe! Hank make sure there are no unwanted critters in the "back yard" (about 2000 acres). The breakfasts are... more

My husband and I were snowed in here for a day while a spring blizzard closed down route 90. We couldn't have been more pleased with the hospitality, rooms, and delicious breakfast. We can't wait to go back. more

We booked this location for 2 nights whilst we were on a roadtrip around the midwest. We didn't want to stay the 'usual' motels in the town of Wall or the lodges in the park. We wanted a different experience and chose to stay on this ranch which is set in the desert just a few miles south of Interior.... more

We got to the Circle View Ranch and at first wondered what we had gotten ourselves into- no one was around, old animal bones/ antlers were decorating the outside of the yard...you had to drive up a gravel road way up to the top of a high butte in the middle of the Badlands National Park, ( it was high... more

I'm not one normally for staying somewhere that involves socialising in close quarters with other guests and the owners, but this place was amazing. It was great to chat to Phil and Amy and spend time with friendly Cowboy the Cat and Hank the Dog. The burros were near the entrance to welcome us when we arrived too. It was... more

We were looking for a place in South Dakota to rest our driving muscles after three months on the road. Fortunately we stopped here first. Set on the top of a several-hundred-foot high butte, facing south over the White River to the Pine Ridge Reservation opposite, Circle View Guest Ranch is a magnificent place to watch the sun go down... more

Our family of 6 stayed at the Circleview in August. We loved it! The Ranch is so clean and comfortable, Phil & Amy are wonderful hosts. We had a wonderful home cooked dinner and breakfast. There were plenty of activities for the kids. They loved Hank the dog! We had two rooms right across the hall from each other and... more

Our family of five (kids ages 10, 9, and 6) spent one night in the Badlands at the Circle View Guest Ranch. We absolutely loved it. The pictures do not do it justice--the views are so different and awesome--Badlands in the distance, sunrises and sunsets to take your breath away, and wide open spaces as far as the eye can... more
