Spend a night in a tepee, near land where buffalo roam, at this park in the state's southwest corner. The tepee has a cedar deck inside, and sleeps six. Wake with gentle light seeping through the fabric wall. Then walk across a road to a platform for viewing the park's bison herd and explore the prairie, including a 100-foot cliff of Sioux quartzite. 1410 161st St., Luverne; 1-507-283-6050;
