great family vacation
My family and I all meet here from around the country for a family vacation. It was perfect. The property owner was great. There was a power outage during our stay and the generator didn't kick on. They came to the property in no time and got it up and running. The power came back on later in the night. Over all everyone had a great stay. My nephew enjoyed the arcade in the finished basement. My parents liked that there was a bathroom on the main floor (no stairs after a day of adventures), my husband and i loved the master with the large soaking tub. Everyone love how comfortable the beds were. over all I'd give this property a 10 out of 10.

Very nice home and great location
The home was clean and well stocked with everything needed to enjoy our visit. The game room was a lot of fun. The two rooms on each of the three floors gave our family enough room to enjoy separate activities.

Castle
Rooms were clean and very roomy. The castle was close to the attractions we were interested in and very easy to find. We had some deer walk right through the yard while we were there. My son really liked that! Would definitely stay here again.

Staycation in the Hills
We did a staycation in the beautiful Black Hills & everyone loved the Castle! Rich & Susan were very prompt with any questions & communication we had. The kitchen was huge & very well stocked for all the items we needed for meals each night. We loved the outdoor deck area. It was perfect for early morning gatherings & evening yard games. We did the Stratobowl hike which was 10 minutes away & went to Hill City to bike on the Mickelson trail which was a 15-20 minute drive. We also enjoyed a delicious lunch at the Gaslight in Rockerville, which was 5 minutes away. Very pleased with our staycation!
