Beautiful house and location.

The house had everything we needed. The hot tub, fire pit, clubhouse with pools, multiple bedrooms/bathrooms, fully equipped kitchen and grill, 2 car garage. It was perfect for our families. The manager was timely with communication and even let us check in 1 hour early. Would definitely stay again!

Renter Beware

The house has a nice layout & location. We enjoyed our stay & left the place cleaner than required even though there was a substantial cleaning fee. (Cleaned gas range, wiped down refrigerator, counters, swept, etc.). Some furniture & rugs were worn, but it was comfortable. The gas grill was extremely dirty and a tub upstairs barely drained. There were a few other issues, but nothing we couldn’t manage. What put a HUGE Damper on the whole experience was the rude text we received from the owner on our way home… “These are photos today of chocolate melted and chunks all over our carpet. There is going to be a charge deducted from your deposit. This is not how one should ever treat another person’s property.” We weren’t aware of leaving it?? We take insurance out, but have never had issues…if we did drop something then it should be covered. Whether we are right or they are is not the issue… it was the RUDENESS of the owners text. We would suggest that if you are considering renting the house you take before & after photos to cover your tale.

Great set up for families!

Loved that there were 3 king sized beds for couples! The bunk room was a little inconvenient since you have to walk thru the master bedroom and bath to get to it. Never did get connected to the wifi, password wouldn't work. kids loved the hot tub. Had a great long table for everyone to sit at. nice clubhouse.

Nice home

It’s a very nice, comfortable home. We had a difficult time controlling heat issues, but we prevailed! The clubhouse is just across the road, is a stretch! At -10 you have to drive to play pool! The photos in the description makes it seem like the pool table and shuffle board are in the home. It’s not described until you read all the small print! In a better time of year, this is a perfect vacation place!

Great house near Deadwood, Spearfish Canyon

We liked the layout of this house. The upper level had a large lounge/living room of its own that could be closed off by barn doors to the open living room below, so if you had kids and adults or men and women that wanted their own space for different activities it would work. Very nice bedrooms and bathrooms for all. The open concept let us all cook, craft, and talk as a group on the main level. We saw deer right outside our windows every day.

Best VRBO

This was the third time our family has stayed at the Claim Digger and it felt like coming home. The youngest of our group was 9 and the oldest was 70 something, and all found the home and area comfortable and beautiful. The kids enjoyed the pool and biking around the neighborhood. We hope to stay again next fall, just wish we could stay a little longer next time!

Even with hiccups

Even with a few hiccups with the property the host was always willing to answer my messages and was extremely helpful. Made our stay fantastic! We used this as a focal point for our family Annual Hills Side by Side Ride. It was centrally located with amazing clubhouse amenities. They house was clean, beautiful, and comfortable for our large group. Would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful Home in the Hills!

This house was very nice, clean and spacious! Very large living room, dining and kitchen area. Nice, comfortable and sturdy furniture. Nice patio area with fireplace and grill. The kitchen and bathrooms were stocked well. Wi-Fi worked well. Short walk to the clubhouse which was very nice as well. Short drive to nearby towns. Owners have a book with information about nearby towns, activities and restaurants which was helpful. A few things I think are good to note for families with kids...The bunk bed room is off the master bedroom and bath, it's the walk in closet for the master but a makes a great bedroom for kids. Also there is no yard, it's tall weeds. Seems to be like that throughout the development. If you have kids that's good to know I think. Overall a great home! Didn't have to contact the owners for anything during our stay. So much to do in the area!

About the host

Hosted by Hoemakr, LLC

Claim Digger became ours in July, 2017 when we discovered Powder House Pass to make a long-time dream come true. We absolutely love to visit our Beautiful Black Hills and are a Jeeping, ATV'ing and snowmobiling family and the location of Claim Digger with the trails right out our backdoor is perfect for us! Various pictures of our family and daughters are scattered throughout the cabin. We hope you love our cabin and the Black Hills area as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

We absolutely LOVE the Black Hills in our home state of South Dakota. There simply is no better place to vacation! As for this particular cabin, we loved the location so near to Lead & Deadwood and the convenience of paved roads. We are a Jeeping family and the location of the trails right out our back door was a must! However, the convenience of the location in no way interferes with the seclusion of the cabin. Wildlife is abundant and most mornings and evenings, there are deer and turkeys right in our back yard. We love being able to bring our daughters here for a long weekend vacation, where they are free to explore the natural beauty...there is just no better place on Earth!
