Dakota Hogan

Perched atop Edelweiss Mountain, The Dakota Hogan (also known as “RW Hogan”) is a one-of-a-kind, custom-built home inspired by the traditional Navajo hogan dwelling. Designed with harmony and comfort in mind, this eight-sided cabin welcomes the sunrise through its east-facing door and offers wraparound decks with breathtaking views of the Black Hills.

Inside, the Hogan is crafted entirely of rich wood, featuring hardwood floors, custom spiral staircases, and stunning Native American art and textiles from the owners’ personal collection. A central wood-burning fireplace anchors the living space, surrounded by two-story windows with handcrafted stained-glass landscapes. Relax in the spacious living room, complete with cozy seating and a hideaway bed for extra guests.
