Good location to explore the area. Excellent setup for two couples. Have rented 20 homes. This host really goes out of way to do the little things that add up make a difference - personal meeting and checkup, tea and hot chocolate, hard soap and soft soap, paper cups in the bathrooms etc . I recommend heartily

Wonderful little cabin

This is our second stay at this property. It is the perfect size for me and my mom. The location is amazing, the sound of the creek rushing by is so relaxing. It is the perfect place for a quiet, relaxing stay. The hosts are great and checked on us a couple ,e times during the stay. They are very responsive and kind. They even left us homemade blueberry muffins for our arrival.

Spectacular. All of it..the cabin, the setting, the hosts, We loved waking up and having our breakfast and coffee on the deck every day in a postcard perfect place. The sound of the creek was so relaxing. Master bed was VERY comfortable with nice linens. The cabin was impeccable and had everything we needed.The hosts were amazing as well; very considerate and accommodating. They went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect, it was in every way! It was the kind of place we were sad to leave

Didn't want to leave

This place was so relaxing it was hard to leave......and we didn't much. Pam met us at the house and gave us a rundown of everything. We spent most of our time on the deck overlooking and listening to Rapid Creek. The only reason I gave a four star to communication was because of reception and nothing to do with our hosts who were very gracious. Would definitely stay here again!

Great Cabin

Location was great, as we had short driving distances to see Mt Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Devils Tower, Deadwood, Mammoth Dig Site and Custer State Park. Very quiet location, Host was great, and we tried a little fishing in the creek. Saw lots of wildlife around the cabin - deer, turkey, owl, kingfisher, chipmunks and squirrels.

The perfect setting to relax after enjoying a day of exploring the Black Hills. Every member of our family enjoyed this stay, from the sound of the creek, relaxing with a book on the hammock or multiple games of bean bags. Pam has thought of so many thoughtful details and was very welcoming while showing us around the property, which was fabulous. We would definitely stay here again!

About the host

Hosted by Pam and Tom

Host profile image
My husband, Tom and I are transplants to South Dakota and the Black Hills. He is originally from Virginia, and I am from Texas. We couldn't be happier that we ended up in one of the best kept secrets in America. We have four children and 8 grandchildren and we enjoy hiking and skiing and exploring the Black Hills. We just finished hiking all of the 121 miles of the South Dakota Centennial Trail that weaves its way through some of the most scenic spots in the Black Hills.

Why they chose this property

The Creek Front Cabin was originally built by my grandparents in the early 1960's, and I have been fortunate enough to take care of it for the past 40 years.

I love this place. The rugged beauty of the canyon, the sound of the rippling creek, the private setting, and the deck make it a tranquil setting that is truly one of a kind.

I can't think of anything better than curling up with a good book on the hammock underneath the huge covered 40' long deck. Listening to the calming effects of the creek is the best R & R a person could ever dream of ...
Yes, there is fishing right from the backyard and a whole variety of wildlife and birds have been seen over the years. To date, we've seen over 33 different birds, plus mink, raccoons, turkey and deer to name a few.

What makes this property unique

You'll experience peace, quiet and relaxation at our private, adults-only vacation property.

The location of the cabin in the Hisega area adds so much history and charm. This neighborhood dates back to 1908 and it was named after the first letters of six women who visited here then: Helen, Ida, Sade, Ethel, Grace and Ada.

These women were part of a camping party, and later cabins were built, along with the Hisega Lodge. It was a true vacation resort for folks coming from the prairies of eastern South Dakota by train. The full story of how Hisega transformed over the years is in the cabin for you to discover.

Many, many people have told me that the setting is the "nicest spot in all the Black Hills". I couldn't agree more. This isn't just a "place to stay" - it is a place to experience ...

My grandparents would be happy that I have made it available for others to enjoy.
I invite you to come and experience the Creek Front Cabin at Hisega!
