I didn’t like the one way unpaved road to the property . The house was spacious and spotless. Big enough for two families.

Wonderful clean secluded home. We were delighted to see Mount Rushmore from the fire pit and all lit up at night. The stream running on the property was great. As was the hottub and gazebo. The people in the adjoining home were very quiet. Hardly knew they were there. Really enjoyed the peace and quiet. loved the kitchen. The 6 burner gas stove was perfect. The kitchen also had all the supplies I needed for many great meals. Enjoyed the sunroom. The location was perfect. The host replied quickly to a couple of small concerns. We stayed for one week and plan on returning for a future stay. Very satisfied.
