Maverick Junction is a small crossroads community at the meeting of US‑18 and SD‑79, a convenient launch point for life in the southern Black Hills and just minutes from Hot Springs. Weekends here lean outdoors: sandy beaches, boating, and clear-water coves at the Angostura Recreation Area, wildlife-studded prairie and caves at Wind Cave National Park, and scenic drives and hiking in storied Custer State Park. Add in fossil-hunting wonders at The Mammoth Site and a soak in the naturally heated pools at Evans Plunge Mineral Springs, and it’s easy to see why residents rarely run out of things to do.
Families are served by the Hot Springs School District, offering close-knit campuses, CTE opportunities, and spirited Bison athletics. Everyday needs are within easy reach, including comprehensive care at Fall River Health Services. Commuters appreciate the straight shot up SD‑79 to Rapid City, while those seeking elbow room gravitate toward acreage and lake-access properties near the reservoir for starry skies, quiet mornings, and space for gear.
With recreation at your doorstep, practical amenities close by, and smooth regional connections, Maverick Junction delivers an easygoing base for exploring and living well in Fall River County.
