We really enjoyed our stay. The inside of the house has been completely redone and very comfortable. Crystal was very nice and communicated with us to make sure we had everything we needed and if we had any questions. This cabin is very centrally located between Keystone and Hill City. We never had to travel far to be at our destination. If I had any criticism.. maybe a few more pots and pans/ kitchen items.. We had everything we needed but I could see if you did much cooking you may need a few more items. The master bathroom needed a little attention, but I took care of it in just a few minutes. But in their defense, I own a cleaning business and just naturally notice things . There was absolutely nothing that would keep us from staying here again! When we come back to the Black Hills, we hope this place is available! Thanks so much!

A lovely place to stay! Very clean and roomy. Hosts are very pleasant and most accommodating. Location was ideal for visiting what this part of South Dakota has to offer. If you are looking for a quiet, somewhat remote, clean, and comfortable spot... this is it!

Perfect location
This place…it’s beautiful with brand new appliances, furniture and comfortable surroundings. Easy driving to all the sites we wanted to see. Beautiful yard with deer and turkeys visiting everyday. One of the nicest places we’ve stayed and we’ve been to a few! Wish we could have stayed longer

Nice little stop
Just a place to stop off at the end of a vacation for a family wedding. Stayed for 3 nights. Had the older cottage lake feel. did not have time to see much as we were busy with plans. Little country store just a few houses down was nice to have.

Wonderful private cabin in the Black Hills.
My family and I had a great time enjoying the Black Hills and this cabin rental made it that much better. The location is excellent, the interior was brand new and very clean. Plenty of room for our vehicles, trailers and toys and my kids loved having all the space to run around in the yard. We will definitely look to book this property again on our next trip.
