Excellent Experience

Our first trip to the Black Hills and our first stay at this sweet cabin. This place is so cute! It was perfect for a couple and the hosts have thought of everything. We were impressed with the cleanliness and responsiveness of the hosts. Within the first 15 minutes of our arrival, we locked ourselves out of the cabin and the code on the phone inside. Jenn answered on the first ring and got us back inside. We also loved the location! It is central to everything we wanted to do. It could not have been more perfect. We highly recommend, and when we vacation in this area again, this is where we will stay!

Centrally Located!!

We loved our stay at Big Mountain. We stayed in Cabin #1. Close to the highway for access to head to Rapid city, keystone, Custer etc. The cabin had all of our main needs and it was very clean and wonderfully decorated. We enjoyed playing cards on the front porch & grilling our dinner. Jen & her husband were super responsive and helpful, they want to ensure your stay is pleasant, they are the kind you would want to befriend. We hope to come back again to enjoy the cabin and more of South Dakota.

Close to everything

We had a great stay at Big Mountain Cabins! Jenn was very responsive and the cabin was immaculate. The only thing I would have changed would be to have some place to unpack my things. Living out of a suitcase for a week is not ideal. All of that being said, Big Mountain Cabins is a great place to stay and is close to all of the best attractions!
