It was a very old cabin, no hot water just warm water. Kitchen was stocked well. Bed was comfortable. For as old as it was very clean and bug free. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. Would rent again.

We are glad that you found our 1930s cabin very clean and comfortable! We strive to honor the rustic roots of our cabins, while providing comfortable, modern amenities for our guests. We are so sorry to hear that the water was not hot! That is something we definitely could have/would have easily adjusted for you. We appreciate your review and thank you for choosing to stay with us on Spearfish Creek.
