The History of Hugg-Inn

• The old barn was built on a 200-acre parcel in the 1920s and was used for milking cows and raising calves and horses.
  
  
• Purchased in 1985 by Glen Huggins, the barn was then used to raise hogs.
  
  
• Glen's four sons: David, Tim, Pat and Ben, had a vision in 1998 to completely renovate the entire farm to a uniquely South Dakotan resort.
  
  
• The rest is history:
  
  

1998 - In the Beginning
Once upon a time, there were four brothers who had a dream. This dream was to turn an old, run down barn and transform it into a place of magnificence. And so the journey began.

1999 - Let the Work Begin!
As time went on, the old barn was given a complete make-over, including foundation, siding and roofing. Plans updated, changed, debated and through it all there was a lot of work and a lot of fun!

2000 - "Hugg-Inn"
As work continued, along came the day to name this place in paradise. How appropriate to call it the "Hugg-Inn." And so it was. And from that day forward the locals and the visitors observed the progress. Soon the Hugg-Inn would be known throughout the land.

2001 - A Strong Foundation
As the bottom floor was being built, the second and third floors were in the design process, also known as napkin drawings! The front deck was built and the windows were added to show off the elegance of this structure. As the barn came to life, people admired the work and soon wanted to book their reservations. Life is wonderful in the Land of Paradise.

2002 - Going up!
The bottom floor was completed with four bedrooms including eight beds, two bathrooms and a kitchenette/bar.

2003 - Second and Third Floors Finished
