Quick Getaway

Overall, the property was cozy and very true to the listing images. Hosts were great! Quick to respond and friendly. The only downfall was that it wasn't as private as it seemed on the listing.

Glamping at its best

Never glamped before but this was a great experience and we loved the whole set up. Definitely different than a hotel which made it even more exciting.

Respite in the glampworld

My wife and I arrived near the end of a long road trip through the American West. This was exactly what we needed: a quiet spot where we could recharge before the home stretch. Hot tub was A+++.

Top Tier Glamping

If you are looking for a great tiny home out in the black hills, this is the one. Patricia and Wade were excellent hosts and the place was clean and ready when we arrived. The drive up to the place from downtown hot springs was gorgeous. The location was perfect and allowed us to have easy commutes to all the fun destinations in western South Dakota.

Great get-away

It was a chance to get away and unplug from the chaos! With communication, we were able to check in a little early. Sitting outside I couldn’t believe how deafening the silence was to my ears. We will definitely be back…maybe with the kids, maybe not! Haha! It had all you need to cook. No oven but there is a microwave, grill w/burner, coffee pot, and toaster. Everything that Patricia said was there. How camping in convenience should be!

Sanctuary in the Hills

Our stay at the Bluebird Nest in Hot Springs was exactly what the doctor ordered! We live just about an hour away and used it as a relaxing staycation. We loved the location in the hills (so peaceful and serene), the amenities such as the grill and hot tub (in actuality, the entire deck is simply amazing), and the adorable decor. This is an absolute perfect place to unwind and rejuvenate. The accommodations were clean and comfortable. The host was very kind and friendly. It was hard to pack up and say goodbye to this little slice of heaven!

Serene little tent and cabin - perfect for my first glamping experience. Wade was super responsive. When we struggled with the grill he came right on over to help. Even at 5am when we messaged about a water issue, he fixed it immediately. It was chilly through the nights but they brought over an electric blanket that kept us toasty.

This little place is a slice of heaven. This was my first VRBO experience and my first "glamping" experience and this exceeded my expectations. The drive up to the site is beautiful and the hot tub at night under the stars is divine. I will be back very soon!

About the host

Hosted by Wade and Patricia Evans

Host profile image
We are a product of on online dating. Patricia moved from MN to the Northern Hills in 1979. Wade was born in Spearfish, but was living in Colorado, counting days until the next time he could get back the 'The Hills'.

Why they chose this property

When we found the property online, we fell in love with the house... and Wade the shop. But after we came to see it in person and walked to the cliff... well, it was just amazing. You have to see it in person to understand. Everyday, we tell our 2 dogs and 2 cats, 'we are going to the cliff' and we all take a hike together, stopping just to sit and look. Seems like every hike, we see something new, we never noticed before. So nice here, we had our wedding at the cliff edge in 2012. We have a hard time figuring out where to 'go' for a vacation... we feel we are living in our perfect vacation spot and now we have discovered that we really enjoy sharing our favorite spot and the chance to meet new friends in the process.

What makes this property unique

We want every guest to feel right at home and provide everything you could ever need. We treat our guests as family... that traveled from across the country and have what they need to relax and prepare for the best vacation possible. We know most families only get 1 or 2 vacations a year, we are very honored to be a part of that experience.
