There's nothing quite like the Sandhills...they're still pristine.

Wide open spaces like your grandfather and his grandfather before him ranched. They are the gateway to the west while covering the north central portion of Nebraska and extend north west into South Dakota.

Lying below the surface of the Sandhills is the one of the largest aquifers in North America called the Ogallala Aquifer. Between the sand dunes - which is what the Sandhills are made up of, along with tall grass, are many ponds and lakes and in some areas, Ponderosa Pines. 

The Sandhills cover 19,600 square miles and are the largest sand dune formation in America with 1.3 million acres of wetlands and 1 billion acre-feet of groundwater and 2.4 million acre-feet of spring-fed streamflow. 

What does this mean for you? ADVENTURE!!!

The Sandhills are perfect for your getaway! 

Specifically Valentine was named by National Geographic Adventure Magazine as one of their top ten Adventure Towns in the wilderness category.

Talk about wilderness...north central Nebraska is a part of the central flyway migration and is a bird lovers paradise. Plants and animals are in abundance and live together peacefully. 

Just because we're located in the middle of nowhere - quite literally - doesn't mean that we are an uncivilized bunch...quite the contrary. There's things to do here all year long. If the weather is too hot, or too cold, there's always shopping with some wonderful, quaint, Main Street shops.
