Great location! Close to Keystone but yet in the quiet countryside. Very clean and nice furnishings. Easy drive to all the sites to see in the area. We would definitely stay here again!
The location of the cabin is great, it is centrally located to all of the Black Hills attractions. We enjoyed sitting on the deck and the peaceful setting. The cabin was clean and the communication with the host was great. The only negative comment I have is the bed was uncomfortable for us,
