Corona rewards residents with wide-open skies, friendly faces, and easy access to the glacial lakes of the northeast prairie. Weekends often revolve around the water at nearby Big Stone Lake, with beaches, trails, and year-round fishing at Hartford Beach State Park, managed by South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks. For a deeper woods escape, the scenic ravines and story-rich trails of Sica Hollow State Park invite quiet hikes and fall color drives. Across the water in Minnesota, Big Stone Lake State Park adds even more shoreline to explore.
Everyday essentials are within a short drive in Milbank and Sisseton, while county services are close at hand through the Roberts County seat and county offices. Families in and around Roberts County typically connect with nearby public schools such as Sisseton School District, Milbank School District, and Wilmot School District, each offering academics, activities, and small-school spirit. Residents also enjoy regional festivals, fishing tournaments, and birding throughout the Glacial Lakes & Prairies, a reminder that outdoor recreation is a way of life here.
What makes Corona stand out is its unhurried rhythm—harvest-season sunsets, neighbors who know your name, and quick outings that put you amid water, woods, or wide prairie in minutes. With shopping and healthcare hubs in Grant County and along the US–MN border, living here balances rural quiet with practical convenience.
