This property is in the perfect location for everything there is to do in the Black Hills! Check-in was super easy and the house had everything we needed. We were out and about most of our trip, but when we were at the cabin, we did thoroughly enjoy the views that the property had to offer.
The whole family enjoyed the property and amenities. The area is absolutely beautiful and the stay was amazing. Would definitely recommend and will be going back again in the future.
Everything about this property was perfect for us. We were able to relax with no worries so that more time could be focused on family. Staying here provided everything that we needed and the comfort and privacy is outstanding. The landscape is breathtaking and we appreciated every moment of our stay. We love this property and can’t wait to return! 5 STARS!!!
Gave me and my family the mountain cabin experience I was hoping for. Property is dated but that enhanced the experience. Good location for visiting all the local historical landmarks. House was well stocked with all supplies and the hot tub was great. Host was prompt, only issue was that I had to call to get the check-in information, overall not a big deal. Thank you!!

This cabin was perfect for our family of 4 for our spring break trip. Our boys (8 & 13) loved the basement bedrooms and having their own tv. It was a great location for all our day trips to Mt. Rushmore, Custer, Badlands, and more. The cabin was very clean and stocked with plenty of towels, bedding, and kitchen needs. We loved the hot tub and the views and privacy were amazing!! This is an older home that could benefit from a few upgrades to lighting and the heaters but it also adds to the coziness of the cabin. Overall we were very pleased with our stay and we’d stay here again!
Came to attend wedding and finding this cabin was such a plus. It’s rustic and in a beautiful setting. Jennifer is attentive to your needs and so easy to work with. Do note the description clearly states stairs are involved if you have mobility issues look elsewhere. It met ALL of needs and them some and I’m 79. If we are ever back in the area I Guarantee we shall stay again.
Quiet and comfortable. Our only disappointment was that the hot tub wasn’t what I expected. From the photos, it appears as though the hot tub was inside of the home. When we arrived, we noted that the hot tub enclosure has one wall that is ripped out, exposing the hot tub to the elements. Since I had no intention of staying in a hot tub in 0 degree weather, or going from the outside to the inside in wet swimming trunks, we decided not to use it. Other than that, the house was great and we had a wonderful time.
The house is very centrally located in the Black Hills It was perfect for our needs in touring the Black Hills for a few days.Definitely would recommend this property. Jennifer and Robert were terrific hosts.
Its a great location with a cozy and relaxing atmosphere. It was wonderful for all of us and my friends dog. Will definitely come back for another weekend get away.
Overall the house was great. After driving 13 hours it was nice to be able to relax in the hot tub and then turn in on a pretty decent bed. We visited at the end of March so the temps outside varied a lot so there wasn't much time spent outside on the property other than getting into the hot tub. The only thing I would say was a negative is that the dishwasher wasn't working. I didn't want to spend time doing dishes but sadly we had to. I am hoping that the hosts will have the problem fixed for the next renter so they don't have to deal with that. Otherwise, the place was great. The TV's all had either a Roku hooked up or they were smart TVs. Bring your log in information in case nothing is logged it but you can wind down with your favorite shows or a movie. Plenty of towels for everyone and places for everyone to relax and spread out. I would definitely recommend this place to stay. BE CAREFUL of driving at night. So many wild animals just walking around and running across the roads but so cool! The deer, turkeys, and even bighorn sheep all wander around at night.
We had a great stay! Everything was as listed and easily accessible! Highly recommend!
