Watertown, South Dakota: Amazing Sports Facilities, Genuine Hospitality

Watertown, South Dakota stands tall next to any small or medium sports destination. Why? Watertown has more multi-purpose space, ball fields and holes of golf than almost any market our size. However, our biggest asset is our people offering “top shelf” hospitality. Rolling out the red carpet is our specialty. When you bring your tournament or event to Watertown, our community and immaculate venues will make you feel welcome.

One of our newest and most flexible venues is the Prairie Lakes Wellness Center. With 23,200 square feet of multi-purpose space, it’s great for cheer, dance, gymnastics, volleyball, basketball, wrestling and more.

The expert staff can help accommodate events as diverse as multi-sport competitions.
