The area was beautiful and the hosts were very kind. The bed was extremely comfortable. The water pressure in the shower could have been better but it wasn't bad enough to dimish the stay.

Nice little cabin, very close to Mount Rushmore and Keystone. Water pressure could have been better and a flat surface to set things down in the bathroom would have been nice. But overall made for part of a great vacation.
