About this property

This newer cabin is located near Hill City, South Dakota, and is at the center of everything the Black Hills has to offer!

Built on the original footprint of Cabin 5, this cabin boasts tall vaulted ceilings throughout with two bedrooms on opposite ends of the building for a little added privacy. One bedroom houses a king bed and a large closet made to resemble the side of a barn. The other bedroom is more cozy with a queen bed under a reclaimed metal ceiling.

The one bathroom is sizeable with a 5 foot shower and a 4 foot vanity and more reclaimed metal on the ceiling.

The open concept kitchen includes a 24" refrigerator/freezer, over the range microwave, and an induction cook top. The hickory cabinets support a large peninsula with a large nice single basin sink and also provide seating for four guests.

In the living room area guests will find a couch and chair for lounging after a long day of sight seeing. An elongated electric fireplace for additional heat or ambience sits below the wall-mounted television with Dishnetwork to provide additional entertainment.

Air conditioning is provided in the living room and ceiling fans will be throughout the cabin to help keep things comfortable during the summer. In the cooler months a combination of a heat pump and the electric fire place keeps this tiny cabin nice and toasty.

Immediately out the front door there is a fire pit area with a picnic table and a Weber charcoal grill. Firewood harvested from the property and eggs from our free range chickens are available for sale on site and charcoal and lighter fluid that other guests have left may be available. Surrounded by public lands, Mitchell Lake is a short walk away and offers a great view, kayaking and fishing opportunities. Wild raspberries and wildflowers can often be found near by as well.

Needles Highway, Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse Monument, Custer State Park, and Rapid City are all within a short 30 minute drive of your front door. The cabin is only two miles from Hill City, which has a grocery store, hardware store, many great restaurants and shops. Walmart and Target are only a 25 minute drive into Rapid City. Our 2.5 acre property consists of five cabins, and a six room motel. There is also a playground for the kids to release some energy.

These eco-friendly cabins feature limited housekeeping and pets are not allowed. Parking is limited so if you intend on bringing trailers or recreational vehicles, we encourage you to reach out to us to discuss parking options before you book.

Hill City is only 2 miles from Robins Roost Cabins and has some great stores. For the basics there is a hardware store, grocery store, dollar store, and a couple convenience stores. A whole host of specialty stores line Main Street and provide a great opportunity for finding treasures to take home with you. Great restaurants can also be found in the Hill City area.

Come stay in cabin 5 and enjoy this beautiful tiny cabin!

AMAZING gem just outside Hill City

Cabin 5 at Robins Roost was awesome, and the owners of the property for the last 7 years are amazing! This cabin is the only one I believe that is as updated and modern as it was. Very cute, clean, with amazing fireplace, "mini-split" heater and a/c in main room. All of the other rooms, they said were "cove heat" and each room had its own thermostat, which was great because we enjoy our bedroom cool (we stayed in April and were able to open our windows, which was SO NICE!) but bathroom warm. This cabin has 2 bedroom and they are on opposite sides of the main room, which is nice for a little extra privacy if traveling with others (or a for a break one night from a snoring hubby!) The owners thought of almost everything when updating this cabin, and I highly recommend it! Just know that it IS a cabin more than a typical vrbo, so there are very few "added amenities". There are no condiments in fridge (but there is an amazing local grocery store called Krull's just inside Hill City, or bring groceries from Rapid City or your home. There are no little shampoo or soap bottles, no hair dryer or iron, etc. I also do not know how a person would plug in an electric car, especially with the small, awkward parking spot for this cabin (cannot have more than one vehicle parked up at this cabin, nor would a camper or trailer of UTV's fit near the trailer -- the owners MAY have an alternative spot you can park those, however- i would contact owner before considering any of these items.)

It was okay

The cabin itself is very nicely renovated inside, however the back door to the outside was not finished, when you opened it the ground dropped behind and could be dangerous for little kids. Just not an ideal situation for little kids to stay here. Also there was construction right in front of the cabin, which caught us off guard. We were expecting a little more privacy. It just seemed this property wasn’t fully ready, some small touches could really make a different. Overall we had a nice stay it was close to tourist sites. The host were friendly and checked in. Some friendly recommendations for a nicer stay: More towels provided for people staying more than two days as there is not washer on site, fully finish backyard for safety, a small dresser for clothing in rooms, bathroom rug outside of shower, blow dryer in bathroom, and list the construction on the site so people are aware before. Thank you for our stay.

Home like feeling Cabin 5

The owners are very nice and the cabin was excellent! They had anything that you need and many items that are not expected. Beds were comfortable. The heating was wonderful and included a fireplace. For a very picky 60 year old this was a perfect place. It is convenient to anything Custer. Shout out to Silver Dollar. The owners suggested and was spot on for amazing food.
