Black Hills Adventure

We arrived late afternoon Sunday, so much space and usable gathering area. We headed out after breakfast each day, touring and enjoying the area. We spent a boat day on Pactola Lake, so close! We cooked meals in the well stocked kitchen and slept well in the bedrooms. Thank you for a good home base. We went south to the mammoth Site of hot Springs, north to Deadwood via Spearfish Canyon. Great vacation!

Friends/Family getaway

We stayed here for our annual SD trip. We choose this location because it was centrally located to all we wanted to see. The cabin was beautiful and the kids had so much fun. The beach just down the road was nice to hang out at too. It was perfect!!

Beautiful Getaway

Beautiful property in a secluded spot, but still near all the attractions. Karen was wonderful getting everything clean and ready for us. The home is huge and very comfortable and clean. It also has a lot of character that we just haven’t seen at other places. We absolutely loved it.

Prime location for family Black Hills Getaway

Great spot for a group of 10. Private and peaceful, yet in middle of the Black Hills so easy access to the sites. Close to water access as well. Property owner was fantastic prior to arrival and during stay with information, checking on things and even having it open on our arrival. Would recommend this location to anyone.

Amazing Retreat

This cabin was wonderful for our family vacation. It is a ways off the beaten path, however it was so nice to get away with the family. The cabin is super homey and has everything you could need.

Beautiful Secluded Cabin

We had to choose between this cabin or two hotel rooms for our family, this cabin was the obvious choice and it didn't disappoint! Our only regret was not planning to stay longer!
