Cute, clean cabin. The smell of cleaner/air freshener was a bit over done, it was almost overwhelming upon entrance.

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,
