Came here for a weekend away to ride our UTVs in the hills. The location was great and had adequate parking for our large trailer. Connie and Jeff were very pleasant and helpful with lots of suggestions for anything you can imagine in the area. The house is as-pictured and had a great place for the guys to hang out and watch movies every night. Loved the property and may make this place a part of our annual trip to the hills. The animals are fun, but beware of the rooster crowing in the morning :) Thanks, Connie and Jeff!

We knew this would be an ideal place for us, but it exceeded our expectations. All the comforts of home were thought of, and the animals were a charming bonus! The spacious outdoor areas, sauna, and game room gave us plenty of options for fun family times. If we could give this more than five stars, we would! HIGHLY recommend!

Amazing Host

Connie and Jeff were amazing to work with. The first night Connie explained how to work with the animals and introduced us to them. The baby goats were a family favorite! Connie and Jeff always checked in with us and even chatted with some of us for a while. They have such a great property! We will be back!

Great stay

Oh My Gosh!! This place is truly AMAZING. The property is SO peaceful and a great country setting. Anyone who loves - and is looking for peace and quiet can not go wrong booking this property. The host - Connie and Jeff were wonderful. Connie went out of her way to make sure everything that we had planned worked out just as planned. Everything - from perfect pin point directions to the places we wanted to go to where the best restaurants and grocery shopping was. Everyone had a great time with the animals on the property as well - especially the baby goats! Would - in a heartbeat - book this property again.If I could give them 10 stars I would.

Such a great stay in the Hills!

This was our first stay at Connie’s cabin, and we absolutely loved it! She was so helpful with answering questions before we arrived, and she was available if we needed anything during our stay. The location is perfect for riding UTV trails and hitting up all of the other Black Hills attractions. Hope to stay again someday!

Can not overstate how positive the experience was for 8 fifty year old bike riders. Along with plenty of room in the cabin, Connie was very accommodating for the entire trip. The cabin can easily entertain all ages from children to adults.

Fabulous relaxing vacation

This home was a great place for 6 adults and one toddler to stay. We used the front and back deck constantly. Great place to relax, visit, enjoy the quiet and nature. It was fun to interact with the animals. The host was so friendly and the home was clean and very well stocked for our family. Thank you for absolutely everything!

About the host

Hosted by Connie Allen

Host profile image
We have lived in the hills for the last 16 years and have had to opportunity to enjoy the ammenties the area has to offer. We would now like to let others enjoy what the locals call "God's Country."

Why they chose this property

This is a great place to make some lasting family memories. From enjoying the outdoors on the trails, lake or the local attractions including Mt. Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Needles Hwy just to name a few to a friendly game of pool and ending the day by relaxing by the outdoor propane firepit or star gazing in the hot tub.

What makes this property unique

Some unique benefits of our property are the peaceful backyard with the covered deck that at times you can hear the coyotes yowling in a distance from, to the deer that frequent our 10 acres. The gameroom has several game options to satisify everyone's game choices. The large open kitchen makes cooking an ease, or plenty of deck room to grill outside on either the gas grill or 36 inch Blackstone under a covered deck. The barn is filled with a mini donkey, goats, chickens and cats. All friendly and love getting treats. The yard has enough room for everyone to run and play. The kids can hike right out the back gate while parents relax watching them from the covered deck, sitting around the fire pit or relaxing in the hot tub.
