Great relaxing trip before school began
5.0
This property was so fun to stay. We had a total of 10 family guests and we all had a blast. The only downfall was actually the driveway, which was quite steep and awkward to enter and exit.
Overall, an excellent place to spend a couple of nights in some beautiful country!

Views were beautiful. Drive was steep as stated, but with skilled drivers no issues. House was well stocked. Easy communication - long drive up the hills as stated. The only thing is the hot tub wasn’t that clean and one kid ended up with hot tub rash - would be cautious of the hot tub even with showering before and after. We had an amazing time and would stay again!

Enjoyed our stay. Drive up the mountain does take some time…15 to 20 minutes. So need to take that into consideration when you venture out. But the view is beautiful once you get there, especially from the master bedroom! Driveway is a little tricky, but we knew that beforehand and it was manageable for our three vehicles. Kitchen is very well stocked as well as the towels provided. There is a washer and dryer, but no detergent provided. All other cleaning supplies were available.

We had a great stay in this mountain home that provided plenty of room for our family of 6. The kitchen was well stocked with cookware of many kinds, and the grill worked great.
I wouldn’t want to try to enter the driveway in winter, but we had no issues during our stay in June. The host was very kind and we highly recommend.

Wow - what a view.
The property is in good shape.
Bathrooms do need updated- carpet in bath is a little disturbing
The drive way is very difficult - if you are not a good driver, stay away. BUT.... The view is worth it!
Overall a good experience .

PROS:
*Yes, the view is spectacular!
*The hot tub was fully functional and clean, and it was a nice way to enjoy the views.
*Cozy front room with huge windows was a nice place to hang out.
CONS:
*So many moths inside. We had 4 kids in our group that stayed upstairs, and every day they were getting rid of dozens (no exaggeration!) of moths, dead and alive from the bedrooms and bathroom.
*Lots of flies inside as well.
*Really uncomfortable beds. The bed in the basement was super saggy and my wife and I would just both end up rolling to the middle of the bed when we tried to sleep in it. You could feel all the springs through the mattress . After the first night, she gave up and slept on the downstairs couch for the remaining two nights. I stayed on the bed, but ended up with severe neck pain that lasted over a week.
*In addition to moths and flies, my wife saw a mouse run across the main room in the basement when she was sleeping there.
*Lack of maintenance - broken screens, wall clocks that didn't work, "non-stick" pans with the non-stick all scratched off, dishwasher rack that kept falling off the rails, filthy dishrack tray, etc.
*Wall to wall carpeted bathroom upstairs - felt very unhygienic, especially since the toilet had to be plunged during our stay.
*No entertainment besides TVs. This is fine, since nothing was promised in the amenities, but in a place that has no WI-FI, some boardgames, books, or DVDs would have been nice.
SUMMARY: If you are all about the views then this might be the place for you, and maybe you would even give it 4 or 5 stars. For our group, we were looking for a clean and comfortable place to relax and hang out after spending a day hitting up local attractions, and this was not it. We have stayed at many Vrbo locations, and for what we paid, we were expecting a lot more. It would have been nice to know what we were getting into so we could have made a more informed decision. I dislike leaving poor reviews, and tried to be as objective as possible in this one so you could decide if this is the place for you.

Mount Rushmore
The property and view is beautiful! My family came to see Mount Rushmore and get away from the city. The driveway is very steep but after the first attempt it wasn't that bad. The fridge wasn't cold but Julie sent someone to check it out while we were away. I recommend bringing coolers with ice to store extra food. Overall we had a great time and highly recommend seeing the sunrise on the balcony.

Million dollar views
If you are looking for a quiet get away this is the place for you. The views are ridiculous. The hot tub at night with the night sky all around is amazing. The bed upstairs was so comfortable and to wake up in the middle of night and see the stars was the best. The kitchen is well stocked and the furniture was super comfortable. Julie was great to work with too.

Insane View!
The people that mention the driveway aren't kidding. We didn't make it up there until after dark and that steep and narrow driveway was a little freaky in the dark, but it was doable. Getting out was more tedious than getting in. However, the view makes it totally worth it. The house is awesome. Lots of flies in the house, but for this time of year, that is understandable. The biggest disappointment for us was the Hot tub. It worked fine but it was pretty dirty. I notified the manager and was told that the green tinge is normal... a green defender? I've never seen a green tinge in clean water before, nor have I smelled clean water that stunk. We showered before we got in and had to shower the film off of us after as well. Anyway, we didn't let that ruin our time there and the view from the house is like something out of a movie. I would probably stay there again as long as I didn't have to pay extra for the hot tub. Kind of silly to put an extra charge for using the hot tub when it wasn't properly maintained.

Annual family gathering
The cabin was beautiful and the scenery was gorgeous! The only problem we had was the road to the cabin was very very steep and washed out! I was thankful we had 4 wheel drive to get up the road!

Black Hills Hideaway
Very isolated and quiet, great view, lovely deck. House is roomy and well equipped.
Early morning sun comes right into several bedrooms; some shades or black out curtains would be useful for later sleepers. The steep driveway is a challenge, both entering and leaving.

Beautiful home and beautiful view. A little bit of a drive to get to it and the driveway isn't fun at all. Great for relaxing and enjoying the scenery.

Nice place
The house is a little off the main road, and the driveway is pretty treacherous even with just some rain. The house is very cool. Views are amazing. The upstairs is very dated, and has a weird inside roof that didn't seem very clean. No door to the King room, so it can be loud. The slider door to the deck could have used some love. Hot tub was great. Overall a nice house.

Amazing Views!
We loved our stay! It was perfect for our family vacation. The location was perfect for hanging out with a gorgeous view, but also just a short drive to tourist attractions. The place had everything we needed and the hot tub on the deck was a hit! The road getting there was an adventure, don’t let it scare you off...it’s not that bad and worth the short drive! :)

Perfect Family Getaway
The property is remote, but if you’re looking for a house big enough to host a nice family get away, this place is great! 3 levels, plenty of sleeping options and two large hangout areas. The kitchen was well stocked on pots/pans/dishes/glasses and having a large dining table was so nice. Just be aware, like the listing says, the driveway is steep and tricky, but there was plenty of room for our 3 cars to park/turn around. The one thing to be aware of, if you have trouble with heights, the hot tub is on a stilted deck that is probably 30 feet off the ground, but other than that, we would highly recommend the house. The property management company was also very responsive to any questions we had.

Black Hills UTV trip
The Kojac house was a great place to stay for a week with our friends on our UTV trail riding trip.
House had some fantastic views of the Black Hills
The UTV trails were fantastic and we will definitely be back next year.
We spent a afternoon on Pactola Lake on a rental pontoon and had a blast.
Definitely a great place to stay

It was wonderful
My only complaint was that the site did not fully explain the nature of the driveway in and out of the cabin. I own a 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee and had we not had that, we would not have been able to get in and out of the driveway. I had to use the 4-Wheel Drive Low option with the ROCK setting to get out of the driveway! Once we were there it was breathtaking and we loved it. We also had to leave a vehicle at the Lodge as there is no room for more than one vehicle to turn around and get out because backing out of the driveway would be impossible. I believe the site should be more forthcoming with the ability to get in and out of the location.

Nice house with great views!
The property manager was helpful and responsive leading up to our trip.
After a few miles of gravel road up the mountain past the grazing cattle you arrive in a small cluster of homes tucked in among the forest. This house is near the very top but has a rather steep driveway with a difficult turn around. The house is spacious and comfortable and was equipped with everything we needed. There are multiple decks where you can sit outside and enjoy the amazing view of the Black Hills. The hot tub was a nice added bonus but the deck around it could use some updates.
Overall quite a nice stay and plenty of room for two families.
5.0
The views are awesome!
The Kojak is a great place to stay. We had a total of 6 (three couples) and the house had more than enough room to accommodate us. The kitchen was well stocked, the beds were all comfortable, and everything was clean. Julie was very, very helpful in making our trip easy and enjoyable.
The view from the two back decks is absolutely awesome. The sunsets and sunrises are beautiful as you look out over the hills. The house is located a pretty good distance from the main highway and nearest town so I would recommend you stock up on your grocery items before heading up the mountain.
Overall, we had a great time, and I would certainly recommend this property to anyone visiting the Black Hills. It is centrally located to Mt. Rushmore, Custer State Park, Deadwood, Spearfish Canyon, and Rapid City.

Great stay!
We loved staying at the kojak. It was perfect place to stay with friends and our families. Julie answered all our questions and checkin was easy. We had a wonderful stay!
