Our Thoughts on Granite Springs Lodge
If you love the outdoors, you're going to love Granite Springs Lodge! This gorgeous premier event facility is just 15 minutes east of Mitchell, S.D. off of I-90 and less than 1 hour west of Sioux Falls, S.D. The location of this venue is in one of the most unique and beautiful areas in Southeastern South Dakota.
This sensational land is adorned with its own spectacular spring-fed rock quarry lake. Come to the shore and look into pristine water and see the many varieties of fish. The terrain, trees and topography of the land surrounding the lodge makes for a perfect and relaxing setting.
There's so much this venue offers, including accommodations for up to 115 guests! With hiking, fishing, kayaking and so many more outdoor activities... can you imagine the FUN that can take place for your wedding weekend? Not to mention, with so many unique outdoor areas you will have endless opportunities for stunning wedding photos.
