Absolutely wonderful stay! Would 10/10 stay here again. Perfect for families with young children!

This is a truly beautiful and spacious log cabin--extremely well built and furnished--with gorgeous property and backyard. The only detractions I would note are that the grease from the grill was not clean and it caught on fire. The manager came to clean the grease but didn't finish so we did not get to use the grill at all. We had to cook many hamburgers inside in batches, which was slow and hot. The only other detraction was that the owner wanted us to strip the beds, and also put the trash in our cars and drive them to a trash depository down the road. We do not have vehicles to accommodate trash, though some members of our group put them in there anyways. To me, that was a bridge too far, especially since I paid a hefty cleaning fee. All else was wonderful and we had a lovely time.

This house was absolutely perfect for our family trip. It easily accommodated all 12 of us without feeling cramped. The property owners were so responsive and couldn’t be any sweeter! This area of South Dakota had so much to do that we stayed busy for all 7 days that we were there! You won’t regret staying here!

We had a small family reunion with our kids and their families, 11 people ages 8 months to 65 YO. It was a very special weekend and this beautiful property was a big part of it. The property is secluded but convenient to Rushmore, Custer Park, Keystone, and other attractions. It's quiet, beautiful, very tastefully furnished, plenty of service ware, cooking, and grilling amenities. We've stayed in a lot of properties in the hills and this is by far our favorite.

We really enjoyed our stay here. We had 14 people in our group, ranging from an infant to grandparents, and there was plenty of space for us all. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook big group dinners. We loved the huge deck with ample seating, and our kids especially loved playing in the yard and with the games out there. The area was quiet and it felt like we had it all to ourselves. The host and owner were responsive, friendly, and helpful. A couple of the mattresses could stand to be replaced, but other than that, we were very happy!

The house was awesome! I took my kids and grandkids. Plenty of room for everyone to sleep comfortable, plenty of towels and a great view of wildlife! Lots of games to do at the house and close to all areas we went to. Bobby Jo was wonderful and Monte went above and beyond! Would highly recommend this house! We will be back for sure!

Perfect house for our family of 8-grandparents, parents, and grandkids. Plenty of room, clean, well appointed. The house is within easy proximity to Keystone, Mt Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Custer SP and the two National Parks. Would definitely recommend!
