Sturgis rally

Enjoyed the beautiful black hills and all it has to offer; was our first time attending the rally. The cabin was located in what I believe to be the perfect location, it is in the middle of most all the attractions. The place is an old family home now used as a retreat, the host was very friendly and attentive. The cabin is away from the main road and is very quiet and peaceful, it is a little out dated but the pictures do not lie . The place is clean and served it’s purpose for us, I have no complaints and would definitely stay again. My advice is to keep an open mind, remember that you are in the woods and enjoy the outdoors and all it has to offer. The place is clean and has everything you need; we were able to use the garage to shelter our bikes from the hailstorm. Thank you Don and Bev, we hope to be back soon….

Great family place

We enjoyed our stay. The place was very spacious and was able to accommodate all of our family comfortably. The host was very responsive and we enjoyed hanging out outside on the patio.

About the host

Hosted by Dan Prostrollo

This is a family owned property which my brother and sister and I inherited from our parents. The one thing that they really wanted was for the property to stay in the family and renting it out when we're not there was a way to make that happen. Most of the maintenance and upgrading is done by myself and I would greatly appreciate it if anything that needs to be attended to get reported back to me. Also, if there is any damage that needs attention please let me know on that as well.

Why they chose this property

This cabin isn't luxurious but it is comfortable. The location puts it in the center of the Black Hills which makes everything within a short drive. It's also next to the national forest giving ATVers instant access to the logging roads and trails. Whether your looking to sight see, ATV, hunt/fishing or just relax and enjoy the mountain air this place will satisfy your needs.
