Cabin was very clean and furnished very well. We loved how quite it is there even during the Sturgis motorcycle rally. We got lucky and had a full super moon that was absolutely beautiful. Coffee in the morning while watching deer and turkeys was a real bonus as well. We had a great time and would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to stay in the Black Hills to stay here. Short drive into town and then explore the beauty of the Black Hills.

Very peaceful and very relaxing

A very unique property. We had the maximum number of allowable guests (9) and it was just a bit tight but very manageable with just a small amount of flexibility required. I personally loved the Cowboy Room (a special sleeping porch) - while it does not have direct access to the house, the laundry room and second bathroom are just a couple of steps away (with a covered porch overhead so no issue with getting wet if it was raining - which it was). The property is just minutes from Custer - but feels a world away. We did lots of tourist things - and the location is central to lots of activities. We loved all the porches - makes the property "live" even larger than it is. The living room with a comfortable sectional and seating for 9 at tables made for a great gathering/dining area. The kitchen is laid out to allow several cooks at one time. The five acres has lots of trees and a large grassy area for lawn games. The separate cottage allowed our youngest family (with young kids) a place to get away from the rest for nap time or just some private quiet time.

Great accommodations. 4 clowns, plenty of room and sleeping arrangements. We all live in the country in northern Mn, so setting was almost like home. Only 3/4 mile of dirt, so bikes didn’t mind. Would recommend.

Just returned from a week long stay. This property was perfect for my family of seven. The location serves as a great home base to see all of the sights we wanted to. Really great decor. My husband and I stayed in the master bedroom in the main house. There is no AC but a combination of ceiling fan and stand up fan kept things cool enough. It was high 90’s one day and then low 60’s the next! Reminded us of home in New England! I would suggest replacing the shower head in the master stand up shower. It’s old and streams of water shot every which way on one setting so we could only really use the three stream pulsating. I didn’t realize until our last day 🙄 that there is a full bath with bath tub off the laundry room. One word of advice to potential renters…if you can, stop in Rapid City and pick up groceries, before you get here. The local “DakotaMart” has got to be the worst grocery store I’ve every been to! Flies all over the produce, no decent sliced American cheese just the cheap mainly oil stuff and the selection of bread…just plain white bread…was atrocious! The loaf we got was so gross it essentially crumbled in my hand. Many former renters leave some things there like soda or condiments. We grabbed paper towels, plates. But cleaning supplies like dish soap, sponges, laundry soap are well stocked.

Kids especially had fun exploring the hilly property - remote from other properties but close to town for groceries and close to Mount Rushmore and Custer State Park as well as Crazy Horse monument.

We stayed here for four days and loved it. The houses were beautiful, clean, and comfortable. The main house stayed relatively cool despite having no AC, the guest house temp was a little more uncomfortable. The houses were impeccably clean and well stocked with necessities. We arrived after dark which made it more difficult to find. I would definitely rent here again.

We were 3 couples on motorcycles and the house was awesome, the only thing was when we got into the lock box there was no keys. I got in touch with the contact person and we were able to get in. The house was very big and secluded and just what we wanted.

It was great for our family. We even had some extended family stay with us one night on their way through SD and it was plenty of room. Location is great and the owner was very helpful with any questions we had.

Awesome Everything we needed Many places have bare necessities to get you started This place was well stocked with pillows, towels TP, garbage bags, kitchen utensils, propane It was awesome Have already recommended to several friends!!!

Very secluded area but yet close to all of the sights that should be seen. Very quiet and very nice sitting outside and listening to the wind go through the pine trees. I highly recommend.

This was a nice place to stay for our Mt. Rushmore trip. Close to Custer, with a grocery store, shops, and restaurants.

Beautiful, quiet location-unless you count the migrating geese! It was crazy how many geese were hanging out at the nearby pond and how much the sound of their wings and their honks carried toward the cabin. It was actually quiet beautiful. Saw many deer near the property, but not by the cabin. My kids were probably too noisy for that. Believe the owner when she tells you the sleeping quarters are quite separate. We are used to getting creative with sleeping arrangements on vacation, so this wasn’t a problem for us, but it did require my husband and I to sleep separate (one in guesthouse and one in main cabin). Well appointed kitchen with everything you need for cooking. Beds were comfy. It was a great stay!

Our entire family was delighted . The location was ideal, we had complete privacy but it was close to everything we wanted to see. The kitchen was as well equipped as ours at home and the utensils were very high quality. The porch was delightful, the decor was beautiful. It made our vacation a memorable and happy!

This was a family vacation for my self, my son and his 3 older children, my daughter, son-in-law, their 10 year old son and my single daughter. This was the perfect location with the set up provided. We were all able to be together for meals, game nights and just good talks in the main house. But when we needed time just to ourselves it was easily accomplished. My son and his three children 15, 18 & 21 took the guest house. We moved the fold out bed from the utility room into the main house bedroom for my daughter, her husband and son (10). My other daughter and myself took the Western room. It was great that everyone had a real bed to sleep on even though we did have to double up. Everyone reported that they slept well. The older children were really happy that they could get away to the guest house. They stocked the refrigerator with their snacks and drinks and could just chill in there and watch TV. The kitchen was well stocked and we were able to make some wonderful family dinners. I would suggest that some of the utensils probably need to be upgraded and/or replaced. (Spatulas, whisks, cheese grater). The property itself is spectacular. The 5 acres provided plenty of space to roam and release some steam. The multiple porches were terrific. The main porch provided the ample room for family gathering and the smaller porches were much appreciated by my self when I needed some quiet time for reading or just getting away from the noise of teens and their parents. I would definitely recommend this place and everyone in my family is in agreement that they would stay here again.

A beautiful property and convenient to everything in the Black Hills. Could not ask for more! Highly recommend

We recently stayed at this property as we were in town (5 of us) for our nieces wedding which was taking place in Custer State Park. The location was beautiful, a perfect cabin in the woods but close to everything. My husband enjoyed his morning coffee on the porch while taking in the nature. The cabin is wonderfully decorated and the kitchen had everything we needed. The beds in both the main cabin and the secondary were very comfortable, and loved the soft bath towels. The owner made it easy and was very responsive to my emails. We would definitely recommend!

Perfect spot for family getaway!!!.

Easy to find. Great central location for Rushmore, Crazy Horse, and Wind Cave. The kitchen is stocked with enough equipment to cook any meal. My only criticism is that it should be more clear that the second bedroom is in a separate building. So, if you are traveling with kids they need to be old enough to stay in a separate building.. There are lots of windows in the house and beautiful views of the forest, lake (not accessible) deer, and wild turkeys.. Drive the Needles Highway. It’s a must! Ans the Wildlife Loop.

We had 6 people in our party and the accommodations were fantastic! Mary was great to communicate with from start to end. We will definatley stay here again when the whole family returns!
