Located to the east of the Badlands National Park, this is a tourist destination, for sure,…read morecomplete with souvenir shop. Especially appealing to urban dwellers who have never experienced life on a farm. I paid the current fee to tour the grounds. There is a short (10 minute?) video available, then you can don vintage clothing and walk the homestead at your leisure. Walking up the pathway to the left, you will probably see prairie dogs running from hole to hole. They may or may not observe you as you walk along. Inside the home on the left, the dirt-floor room has a button which you push to get a bit of narration. The right side of the house was a newer addition, with furniture and wood flooring. In the old section, you will find the original homestead, with the bedroom in back. Check out some of the 'wallpaper' and you can read articles of news from the era. Yes, they used newspaper to help insulate the home. There are lots of items to see from the homestead days. I found the cream separator to be an interesting apparatus. There was a cellar which had a chicken wire mesh over the entrance. You could see inside from the walkway. The chicken coop was next, typical of the era. On to the barn, there is a broken down Ford Model T in one bay. Various saddles and equestrian items are next. To my surprise, a pony and some chickens were in the next section, staying inside to avoid the approaching storm. An outhouse is set back a bit, nothing fancy, a little worn for time. There are various farm implements out in the yard. I found the big kettle, complete with firebox, to be interesting to investigate. They used it to render slaughtered animals, and also for washing clothes. A sign along the pathway displayed typical Midwestern humor. Words to the effect: The government put up 160 acres to your $16, betting that you'd starve to death before 5 years had passed. All in all, a decent display of how the settlers in the area lived in bygone days. A helpful addition would be guided tours vs. the self-guided tours. I recommend.

We stopped by Wall Drug Cafe and tried the vanilla and chocolate donuts along with the apple pie…read moreand blueberry pie. It was a nice stop during the trip and a fun experience overall. The 5-cent dine-in coffee was a nice touch and added to the classic feel of the place. Among everything we ordered, the blueberry pie was definitely the highlight and was really good. The other items were decent as well and made for a nice quick snack break. Worth stopping by when visiting the area :)

+ Fun lil tourist trap in between destinations like Black Hills, Badlands, and Quinn…read more - Disappointed their famous "free ice water" wasn't even for glamorous show. It's just a regular ol' soda dispenser machine. Didn't even have an interpretive sign. . Well, at least their other famous attraction, the 5¢ coffee, has a lil sign, so that's something. - Tourist trap indeed. Nothing I want here. - Very crowded inside. + Ample nearby exterior parking. + Aesthetic interior decor. Lots of arts and details to admire as you walk about inside this big market. + Fun ambience. - I missed the giant mechatronix T-rex here. I knew about it, but I was rushing so much I forgot about it. + 8 150kW Tesla superchargers a 2min walk away. The Wall Drug Store is a convenient fun place to just walk around while waiting your charge. + A lot of cute girls work here.
