Rutland is an unincorporated community in Lake County, South Dakota, United States.

Rutland was founded in 1905, and named after Rutland Township by Richard F. Pettigrew, a surveyor and politician from Sioux Falls.[2]

Rutland is served by the Oldham-Ramona-Rutland School District, which has a single Pre-K through 12 school located in the town as well as a veterinary clinic which was formerly a small gas station called "The Rambler Stop", named after the original Rutland School sports team name, the "Ramblers".[3]
