ABOUT US
Dakota Dunes, South Dakota is a 2,000 acre master planned community started in 1988. Dakota Dunes Development Company is the master developer and owned by Berkshire Hathaway Energy, one of the largest utility holding companies in the United States, headquartered in Des Moines, Iowa.
The community was expertly planned: land plan by Edward D. Stone and Associates, an internationally recognized architectural and planning firm; commercial and residential covenants prepared by Hyatt & Rhoads; the country club golf course designed by Arnold Palmer.
Of the 2,000 acres included in the community, approximately 434 acres have been reserved for office, light industrial and retail facilities; 543 acres for residential single family houses, townhomes and apartments; 343 acres for two golf courses and 627 acres for open space and public right of ways.
