Pamela Carter Joern, author of the novel The Floor of the Sky, used the Alhambra model house on the Triangle Ranch B&B as the inspiration for the ranch house in her book. Set in the Sandhills, Pam's novel follows one summer in the life of Toby Jenkins, a 72-year old widow trying to hang on to her land and her family.
"When I saw the Alhambra on the prairie, I knew I had found Toby's house. The incongruity of it—such elegance rising up out of the prairie — was perfect for this tale of possible ruin and partial redemption."

"it all started with a High Recommendation from a fellow-innkeeper and could not have been more accurate! The Badlands are the 'goodlands', made more memorable by good people like yourselves . . . thank you for the wonderful stay." Lisa & Gordie, MN "Thank you s-o-o-o much for the wonderful stay. I loved the quietness and beauty . . . this is the perfect place to stay when you get tired of everday life in the big city." Satoshi, Japan "A very beautiful home under a wonderful sky with millions of stars! Thank you for your hospitality. You give the B & B concept a nice personal touch. We feel very welcome a long way from home. Dank u." The Apers, Belgium "I came to South Dakota to see the prairie - the wide open spaces . . . .I leave South Dakota . . . privileged to experience such a multitude of unique sensations - the prairie wind, a prairie thunderstorm, my first open campfire under the prairie stars, a meadowlark, a rodeo with real cowboys (not myth and legend, but flesh and blood). You shared stories and facts of ranch and cowboy reality with us. Thanks for an unforgettable week." Diana, NC
"You have found your true calling - warm ambassodors of belief and tradition."
"The house is truly lovely and very cozy, especially after a cold day of hiking - thank you. Triangle Ranch is the only place to be in central South
Dakota."

"We have stayed in many bed & breakfasts - this is the best!"

meeting you."
"We have travelled to Antartica and to the Arctic Circle. We have stayed in many B & Bs and feel that your home tops them all. The history, the charm and the hospitality were memorable."
"What a great time, for the second time! Thanks for giving our English cousins such a wonderful memory spot as we showed them the beauties of our great country."
"A much-needed 'R & R', the meadowlarks singing, your dad's stories,
music, laughter and the beautiful, tranquil room. There's something about
lace curtains blowing and a lovely view of green prairie foothills beyond."
"We look forward to coming back here to enjoy more campfires and
lemonade."
"We loved visiting you in your family's Sears Mail-Order home. It's such a classic, and we can truly imagine it's colorful heritage . . . " |
