We absolutely loved it here, to the point my kids didn’t want to leave! It was such a cute little place, out in the quiet and perfect for our getaway. It was a great location for all activities, especially exploring Spearfish Canyon. We would definitely stay again if we come back that way from Wisconsin!

Lovely, tidy tiny house. It's right next to the Termesphere Gallery so if course we visited there and got to meet the artist. I don't know if it specified it in the description, but it is just the downstairs of the house.

The perfect little cabin hideaway. We felt so cozy in our little retreat. We loved the warmth of the fireplace. The breakfast sandwiches were an amazing find, thank you so much! We did hear someone walking around upstairs which was startling. Especially as my husband was still sleeping and my 3 year old was startled and ran to me. We tried to make it not bother us. Would stay there again if we found ourselves in the area again.

Cute place. Perfect for our stay. Very clean and comfy.
So cool to find out we were next door neighbors to the Termesphere Gallery. Got to visit there and meet Dick.
Nice and close to town and the Spearfish Canyon but felt like you were in the country.

My little family loved staying here! Awesome proximity to Spearfish and Deadwood, but you feel like you're in the hills/countryside which we love. Great amenities. Grateful we found this place for a quick vacation!

For our 1st time to SD and the Blackhills this property was perfectly located. We woke up to deer in the yard every morning and came home to them grazing in the evenings. Its and hr dr to devils tower and and hr 1/2 to Custer/ Mount Rushmore area. We came with it two young boys 4&7 & my mom. The space was perfect us for us. The one thing I will recommend is if you have a favorite pillow bring you'll sleep much better.

Furniture was very worn and the bed needs replacement. AC unit did not fit the window. Shower curtain was black on the bottom and the shower is very small. One of the doors to the bathroom was swollen shut and not usable. Could be a cute cozy place but needs some improvement for comfort

Great location, close to the expressway but far enough for peace and quiet after a day of driving or exploring the area. Comfortable and equipped with a lot of extras.

This place makes you feel like you are in a secluded area even though you are close to town. It has everything you need for a nice stay. Every morning we sat outside and had our coffee while we planned our day. It was beautiful. We had an enjoyable stay.

Great place. Peace and quiet and only minutes from town. Clean and cozy.
We had a great time. This property is clean and we would definitely recommend it. Lovely yard and we really enjoyed sitting outside. Bring your lawn chairs and hang out. The inside has limited seating that's low and difficult to get up off of if you have mobility issues, that said I'd definitely still stay here again.

Quiet & Lovely
Turtle house is quiet and lovely. We stayed here when we explored Devil’s Tower and Spearfish Canyon. It’s about 8 minutes into downtown Spearfish, but feels tucked away. We highly recommend this cozy spot.

You should pass on this property
The property is in disaster. High grass/weeds. Broken down trailer full of junk. Some kind of a glass house with broken out sections filled with weeds. Some kind large broken sphere out front etc... The inside was not much better we left 3 days early because of this. The inside had a smell of cats! Bad all around not happy will definitely think twice about vrbo 😩

Loved the uniqueness of Turtle House. This was our honeymoon destination and we found it homey, private, cozy and romantic. Lang was very good at communicating with us. We enjoyed meeting his famous artist father, Dick Termes, who lives next door and visiting his fascinating art gallery, the Termesphere Gallery, which is walking distance from the Turtle House. Great experience. We would definitely rent this property again!

Great Stay in the Turtle House!
We had a wonderful and cozy Valentines/Presidents Day weekend in the Turtle House. It was great to visit the Termeshere Gallery and Dick and Markie. We had planned to do some snowshoeing but with -22o temps we settled for hot toddies and movies instead! It has everything one needs for 2 - 4 people for a great getaway in the northern Black Hills!
