We loved our stay at this cabin. Great memories for the family. Would love to come back someday.

Family really enjoyed the cabin

Location is great, its in the back of the KOA so you don't have to hear all the noise but benefit from the accommodations if you want it. Host was very responsive.

We enjoyed our stay at this cabin! The owner was easy to communicate with. The kitchen had everything we needed and we enjoyed eating dinners on the porch overlooking a beautiful view (the large septic ponds didn’t bother us too much, no smells). The porch area does get a little windy at times and cold at night but our girls loved the electric blankets and said the porch was cozy and fun!

The cabin was amazing. We had perfect weather for utilizing the sleeping porch with plenty of blankets available for warmth. We love sleeping in a cold room and this was great. Nice touches of family memorabilia the made you feel at home We would definitely stay again.

Our family absolutely loved our stay at the Hynes family cabin! The views, wildlife, and cabin amenities made for the perfect escape from reality and an experience we’ll never forget.

Great place for families amazing location to all sights! No AC on the super hot day but we went down to the pool to cool off!

We took my elderly in-laws and our kids but scheduled it without realizing in advance it was Sturgis week. I checked in at the KOA office to let them know we were going to be at the cabin, but the desk clerk said we didn’t need to check in with them but we’d have to pay to use the pool or rec areas. The owner sent great instructions on how to access the cabin, but I still had to ask for help before I found the obvious sign out front. Oops! The cabin was huge, spacious, clean, and comfortable. Yes, the KOA retention ponds are in view, but have no odor to the cabin and geese, deer, and horses are all frequent visitors around the ponds. Mountain views are a tip of your head upwards! The attached KOA is busy and can be loud, but we did take advantage of their dining facilities and ice cream shop when we couldn’t get in anywhere else due to bike traffic. The beds were comfortable and the extra blankets came in handy for chillier mornings. The kitchen and coffee pot were a blessing! We used the dvd player to unwind with the kids. The kids loved climbing the large rocks and seeing the chipmunks run up the exterior of the fireplace. The cabin was tucked far enough away from the campground that the only real noise was nature and the horses being rounded up, which we enjoyed seeing. We did take the scenic Palmer Gulch Road out the back of the campground to avoid all the foot traffic, and loved the pretty views and winding road into Hill City. We wish we could have stayed longer!

We had fun staying at Hynes cabin. You can see the Harney Peak/ Black Elk peak in the deck. You can even hear the 1880 train. We did horseback riding and rode the banana bike—tons of things to do around black hills. I recommend this place specially if you have a small kids.

Absolutely love this place and so nice to be back after quite a few years. Thanks again for sharing your home in the Hills.

Very cool cabin in an incredible location. We loved the KOA amenities, the convenient location, and the cabin had everything we needed. We've told all of our friends and family about the place.

The cabin was very clean and stocked with all the items needed and even some things that you wouldn’t think of. We enjoyed the remote location but also being close to things to see and do in the Black Hills.

The cabin is rustic and charming - exactly the experience we were looking to give our kids for their first road trip out west. We found that the cabin was well stocked with everything we needed to enjoy our stay. We cooked all of our breakfasts and dinners there and found the kitchen well appointed - I loved the cast iron pans! My wife and kids are really into horses and we loved watching the horses run in/out each evening and morning. The location is great - close proximity to all the sites we wanted to see, and great to be able to use all the campground amenities. Even though the campground seemed busy, when at the cabin it felt pretty private. My wife and I were super happy with our decision to stay here and would definitely stay again if we make a return trip!

Beautiful location, cozy cabin, and an amazing view!

We wanted a place that was close to trailheads for hiking and the cabin was a perfect location. Beautiful spot to sit out and watch the sunrise and sunset. Kids loved watching the horses and being able to see Black Elk in the distance. Great memories!

The cabin was by all the major location. But the amenities like the grill was old and dirty. Big problem with flies on the porch. Was suppose to be able to watch DVD on the TV but didn't work. After 3 days back and forth with Kimberly just gave up. KOA work trucks driving back and forth 30 to 50 times a day on dirt road behind cabin going over metal plateform which made a loud noise everytime. No weclome basket for the amount of money we spent to stay for a week standards were just below my expectations. Most likely without some kind of discount won't be going back. Oh and the fireplace just electric not a real wood burning fireplace.

There are so many great aspects to this cabin: the location in central Black Hills, the historic nature of the cabin, the sleeping porch, seeing the horses run each morning. Ample bathing towels and the kitchen was well equipped for cooking meals. While we have two kids, we didn't use the KOA facilities, but I imagine some may like that. The cabin is on KOA property, but the cabin was separate enough for us. We certainly could see and hear the campers, but we felt we had plenty of space and privacy. It was nice to have a place for ice cream close, place to get firewood and ice.

We absolutely loved the cabin and its location. Also, rich history. The horses running past the cabin twice daily was a treat. The cabin was very well stocked with pretty much everything we needed. If I had to make any improvements it would be that there was no cord to hook the router for the tv and the grilll also did not work. So wouldn't count on those two items as amenities. Overall great place and I would go back again.

The cabin itself was beautiful! For sure something we will always remember. There was plenty of space for our family of 6. Sleeping in the screened in porch was great! Of course watching and hearing the horses being rounded up each morning was a favorite for everyone! I do have a few negatives though. First, no cell service or WiFi. If you go up to the KOA main building you get some Wi-Fi, but it's slow. This made it a little difficult for planning our next day's adventures. 2nd negative is the heat. We were there mid August and it got hot in the cabin! Pretty much couldn't spend time in the cabin during the day.. which really wasn't bad. We would typically come back in the evening, tired and hot, so we would hit the pool. It really was great that we could use all of the amenities at the KOA! Generally took until 9pm or so until the cabin cooled down. Definitely too hot to cook meals. We had planned on grilling lots, but the grill was so rusted and old it didn't work (3rd negative). The owner was very responsive when we let them know about the grill, and brought out a (very) small charcoal grill to use instead. All in all, pretty awesome place!

Spent 3 days in this rustic (in the best way possible: sleeping porch, quilts, wicker, etc.) cabin on the tail-end of our CO/WY/SD trip with our daughter and 4 grandkids. Perfect location - the area is packed with amazing places to explore. When we’d return late afternoon each day from “tourist-ing”, the kids would enjoy the KOA activities until dark. Then all would sleep contentedly in the cool, fresh air. A great, memorable trip!

The cabin was very clean and the kids loved climbing on the rocks. The view is beautiful and the porch was great for playing games and relaxing after a long day of hiking and adventuring. The kitchen had everything we needed and plenty of towels for the pool and bathing. My only complaint is that there is a service road right behind the cabin that leads to the KOA maintenance shed. Once the horses use the road to get to the stable there is nothing but noise from UTVs, trucks, large maintenance vehicles, etc. going back and forth. Not bad if you're a morning person and get up at 630AM everyday, but if you want to sleep in you won't be able to.

It isn’t as secluded as the photos make it appear (my daughter was excited to be fully private) there are cabins very near you and RVs, although it’s a bit off the beaten path. This actually ended up being a good thing, because the KOA campground has wonderful amenities that are safe, clean, and numerous. Instead of being in the middle of nowhere like we imagined, we were on the outskirts of this lively campground which we ended up loving. The cabin itself is adorable and just how it is shown. Actually bigger than it looks in photos, The entire back of the cabin is just screens, you cannot shut the windows. They offer heated blankets in case it gets cold but the one thing my husband had a little bit of an issue with was the horses and camping near us created random sounds through the whole night and there is no getting away from it. Next time I will just bring him some earplugs :) but just in case someone reading this is also sensitive to sound. In all it’s a wonderful property and we will definitely try to make it back! The KOA campground was walkable and right around the corner. The guided horse trails were fully booked, so if that interests you go check in right when you arrive so you don’t miss it. It’s also $60/hr per person, not including tipping the wrangler. We were able to get the last two spots and it was a wonderful experience. Ps I LOVE the curtains and floral bowls. So cute. :) very clean, even in the rafters. Can’t really beat this property, if you have kids, this is a total gem.

We really enjoyed our time here. The cabin and porch were amazing. Our family with young children had a lot of fun here

Beautiful cabin with all the amenities to make you feel right at home! We really enjoyed the kitchen and cooked most of our meals at the cabin. Great views and the cabin allowed for our three daughters to have an area of their own. Enjoyed access to the KOA pool as well!

We stayed at The Haynes cabin for a family reunion and we thoroughly loved every minute!! Our other family members stayed at the cabins in the KOA but I booked They Hynes cabin as a bucket list love!! Always wanting to stay their!! Simply amazing!! The pictures don’t do it justice!! The views, the ambiance all just stunning!! The cabin was well stocked with everything you could possible need, a gas grill, crock pot, dishes cooking supplies and even some spices and condiments!! The scenery is amazing!! My grandsons loved the horses every morning and evening…. They were all Douglas!!! The beds were comfortable and we were plenty warm on chilly nights!! The KOA emmenities were included and again my grandsons loved the splash pad, heated pool, new playground and mini golf!! We rented a golf cart for 2 days and that was also helpful in the fact that our Hynes cabin was at one end of the campground and our other family members were in cabin3, opposite ends!! We loved everything about this cabin and we can’t wait to return!! Thanks so much for allowing us to create such priceless memories!!❤️

It was the perfect place to forget about our worries and de-stress. Seclusion at the cabin, fun at the resort, and so much breath-taking beauty for miles all around.

This place was absolutely amazing! We thoroughly enjoyed the spectacular views from the screen porch and watching the horses go in and out each day. This place is truly charming and in a great location! It was a nice to have a private setting located next to all the KOA amenities and nearby attractions.

The cabin was incredible and the views were amazing. It can be a little cold sleeping on the porch but it's worth it for the views! Plus there are space heaters and heated blankets available. The availability of stuff at the KOA (putt-putt, swimming, playground) was a nice added bonus. We would definitely recommend staying here!

First, I will say Kimberly is great with her communication and that we had such a wonderful trip to SD. We really loved the views, the close proximity to monuments and hiking, the wildlife, and the fire pit, however, we probably wouldn’t stay again. The experience was worth it, but the cabin lacks cell service and wifi, and the collection of DVDs totals about 10 (most of which are outdated). If you planned to stay in for a night, as adults, there just isn’t a lot to keep you occupied (let alone kids once you get through the games available). The twin beds on the sleeping porch needed to be replaced many years ago. The cabin itself is adorable, rustic, and steeped in family history. We loved putting our paper plate on the wall, and seeing grandmas dish ware. I have zero regrets about staying here for our trip, but would probably be more inclined to stay elsewhere next time.
