Cabin was clean, the location was a little misleading. It said it was 11.8 miles from keystone but it was not. When I put keystone into my maps from the cabin it was more like 22 miles. Maybe it was 11.8 miles from the mailbox but not the actual cabin. Very hard to get up the roads to the cabin in our van but a truck would probably have less issues. The cabin was clean and check in and out was simple and great!
4.7
What a beautiful rental! We had everything we needed (and then some) and the view in the backyard is absolutely amazing! This rental sleeps a lot but we each still felt like we had our own privacy with the many separate rooms. We would absolutely recommend this rental to anyone.

Very quiet and clean and nice!

The house is amazing with superb views. Couldn't have hoped for a better place to stay. Julie was a true pleasure during the process and gave great information. You would be hard pressed to find a better place or better operator. THANK YOU...our family had an amazing trip.

Everything was great. Very accurate description of cabin. Julie was very helpful & easy to work with. Would stay again if we are in the area.
4.7
College friends enjoyed our stay at the house. We enjoyed the hot tub and the deer and turkey we saw near the house. Very peaceful and the house met our needs. Our host, Julie, went out of her way to accommodate us and even delivered a new coffee maker in the evening when we discovered the current one did not work. Greatly appreciated! Highly recommend you stay at this home.
4.7
Nice place that was clean and perfectly located for our travels. Property manager was very helpful as well.

We came to the Black Hills for a weekend of fall trail riding in our side by side. We had 2 trailers and parking was great as well as getting the trailers in and out without too much trouble. The hot tub was a nice place to start the day and living areas accommodated our group and offered separate when needed. Would come back again, highly recommend as a fall destination!
4.7
The house was perfect for our needs!
Julie was quick to reply and very helpful with questions about the area as well as about the property!
Heads up for those pulling trailers, the driveway has a pretty steep hill and tight curve/corner.
We would definitely stay here again!!!
4.7
The drive may seem long to get there, but the views are worth it!
We had a great time!

The house was wonderful with beautiful views in every direction. All the family loved the seclusion. Julie was wonderful to work with and the process was so simple. We will definitely think about coming back!

4.7
We had a nice family vacation here.
Pros:
Clean
Well stocked
Plenty of room
Beautiful location on the mountain
Looked better than pics- updated decor
Wi-Fi and TV
Hot tub with plenty of towels
Great responsiveness of hosts
Cons:
-Two bathrooms was a little tough with our crowd, but doable (no bathroom upstairs)
-The doors lacked privacy. Wasn’t a big deal for our group
-the biggest con for us was that is was quite a trek to get down the mountain for the day, and added to driving times. We still liked being on the mountain, but just something to be aware of.
It’s a great place with great hosts, we recommend highly!
4.7
It was a great place. Kitchen well supplied. Would VRBO again. Just heads up three miles of gravel will take 15 minutes to travel, great bonding time.
4.7
Our family enjoyed our stay very much! We went sight seeing during the day and came “home” for supper and visiting in the evenings. We sat on the balcony a lot - beautiful views! There wasn’t a lot of level back yard for kids to run and the spiral stairs were a bit tight. Overall we do recommend this spot for your family’s getaway!

We had a great weekend. Everything at the house was clean and organized.

Awesome just a bit out there
Good place to stay! A bit outdated but doesn’t really matter when you aren’t there much through your trip! Everything worked and was fine for us. It was a bit of a drive off of the main road which kind of stinks but I’m sure if I would’ve done my homework first I would’ve seen that. It was my first time there so when I saw 17 miles to Mt Rushmore I wasn’t concerned but more like a 45 minute drive.

Black Hills getaway
This was a very beautiful property. There was plenty of room for us. Sitting outside at night was beautiful and peaceful. It's at the end of a road and very private.
Julie was SO helpful.
4.7
This was an ok stay
This was a house that was off the beaten path but work for us. Had enough space for us to come back and cook and hang out with family after a long day of traveling around the black hills We had a family of 12 and it worked
4.7
As a disclaimer I knew the limitations of the property for our family before we rented based on the description on VRBO. When I booked 6 months ago the VRBO website said 93% of properties in the Black Hills were already booked. We had a very limited selection. Book very early if you’re visiting in the summer. The house was nice but 2 bathrooms are hardly enough for 11-12 people!! There was a lot of brushing teeth in the kitchen sink due to showers, etc. in the bathrooms. Most of the bedrooms have very funky doors which provide very limited privacy. A constant flow of 12 people staying at the house does take a toll on it. They take reasonable care of it. The requirement to haul our own trash and leave the house trashless was a royal hassle in our private cars. Paying over $2600.00 for a 5 night stay seems almost like California VRBO prices in South Dakota. On the plus side, the house is located in a gorgeous area with plenty of good parking. Very quiet area in the woods. The home seemed very clean. Overall we had a good time in the beautiful Black Hills.
