We enjoyed staying at Mountain Peaks Inn. Hill City was central to all the places we wanted to see and the Elkhorn room was perfect. It had a side entrance and made coming and going easy. The room was laid out perfectly for us. The shower was super as well as the rest of the living area. The coffee shop was a great place to go for coffee and other breakfast items, as well as lunch, and just hang out. The personnel at the coffee shop were so helpful and served us well!Lisa was a very good host and was available to answer any questions we had. I would highly recommend staying at Mountain Peaks.

Great location

Overall, we enjoyed our stay and the location very close to Hill City and the Mickelson trail. Listing is accurate, but outdoor spaces not attractive and accommodation is cramped for this couple.

Response from VrboOwner on 29 May 2024
We are sorry to hear you found the outdoor space not to be attractive and were cramped. There is nothing we can do about the size of the unit, which is larger than most typical hotel rooms, but we can try to improve the outdoor patio outside of the room. We hope you found the room to be cozy and welcoming. All the best.

Great location

Cabin was intimate but perfect for what we needed. Location was great, several restaurants within easy walking distance, gas stations and shops if so desired. Also walking distance to 1880 Train and very comfortable distance to a lot of area attractions. Cooking was not allowed inside but we used the provided grill and brought electric skillets that we plugged in on the deck area. Worked great. Owners were great to work with and met all of our needs. Make sure to stop by their coffee shop in the morning. My daughter loved their shakes.
