Cabin Getaway

We were looking for a remote, peaceful place, and this definitely fit the bill. We enjoyed our stay here and sitting on the deck, enjoying the pines. It was close to the major attractions that we were interested in also.

Very nice property away from the city!

We had our yearly family vacation here this year and we couldn’t have been more relaxed and happy in this cabin away from home! It is far enough away from the city to relax but close enough to do everything we had on our list❤️

Very nice cabin in the Black Hills

Three of my family members and I stayed in this spacious cabin situated in a beautiful location. The cabin was clean and well equipped. Check in and check out was no problem. The host was responsive to the one question that I had. I highly recommend this cabin if you are looking for a quiet location in the woods that is conveniently located near the things to see in the Black Hills.

It is a nice place. It is almost like 2 places in one. We only used the upper level. The description of the surrounding area that they have for guests in their welcome book, was spot on. We feel blessed to have stayed there. Thank you

Family Vacation

The home was very nice, everything was clean and worked. The description was accurate except I was expecting the kitchen to be on the main floor not upstairs, but that was not a problem. The view from the deck was excellent. No need to contact the property manager at all, definitely enjoyed the stay, would do it again.

Black Hills Get-A-Way w/ Family & Grandkids

Nice place, Very peaceful and Pine trees secluded. Other houses around but not real close, all in all very private. Home was very clean with plenty of necessities. About 3 miles off of Hwy 385 on a good gravel road. (Not an issue for us) Just minutes north of Hill City and close to Sheridan Lake. Excellent hiking trails there with great views around the lake. Great time was had by all.

Great few days away

We had a wonderful stay! The cabin was clean and well stock with everything we needed. Definitely stop for groceries before you arrive, as it is quite a trek to the nearest store. We were a little unprepared for the more out of the way location, but it did lend itself to quiet relaxing evenings after a busy day of sightseeing. Would recommend and stay again.

Great place. Enjoyed our stay. No complaints. Drive way is very steep but we knew this prior to staying. Had to take a run at it to make it all the way up, but made it. 🙂 Great location if you're looking to ride some trails.
