The Gillen family & White Lake Hunting Lodge

Cory & Kaci, with their five children (Kendall, Quinn, Graham, Mia, & Sutton) reside on the property of White Lake Hunting Lodge. They purchased the lodge in 2017.

Since purchasing, they have remodeled and added to the property by farming specifically for pheasant habitat. Food plots stay in the grounds year round and are surrounded by a cover crop to provide nesting. When Kaci & Cory aren’t pheasant hunting, they enjoy taking their family camping, participating in  rodeo, baseball, basketball, and volleyball.

Customer testimonials

20+ years and hundreds  of satisfied hunters, here are just a few.

I have hunted quail, chukar, and pheasants all over the United States and this hunt tops them all. I can’t say enough about the fantastic guides, great food, and friendly people. Every need was taken care of from arrival to departure. I look forward to making this yearly trip a tradition to be passed down to my children and my children’s children.

Hunted at White Lake Hunting Lodge November 2020. Great folks with really good guides ,with great dogs. Food and accommodations are low key and just right for an enjoyable few days with friends. If you haven’t hunted native grasslands with pointing dogs you have missed a great experience. Going back this year.

We stayed at WLHL last season for the first time and can’t say enough positive things about our experience. Kaci was wonderful, as was her husband Cory. Everything was first rate and we had a great time. We just booked our trip back for this season!

John Kohan

White Lake Hunting Lodge offers a “top shelf” experience in the ultimate South Dakota pheasant hunt. Kaci has put together a fantastic operation that is exceedingly professional while maintaining a very casual and welcoming family atmosphere. I felt as if I was an invited guest of the family. Superb accommodations. Excellent meals that were both very satisfying and absolutely delicious. And supreme pheasant hunting as one can only find in South Dakato! Hunt with Kaci, you won’t be disappointed!
