Our family had a beautiful stay. Plenty of bedrooms so everyone had a little privacy, but tons of spaces to come together and play. The location was surprisingly close, withing 10mins, to Lead/Deadwood, and a great spot to start from when exploring Spearfish Canyon. Everything went well and as expected. We certainly plan to stay here again.

Great spot close to deadwood.

We comfortably fit 11 guys with plenty of room to spare, amazing view from the porch that is very private from other cabins. The owner was very friendly and easy to work with. Great spot for a bachelor or bachelorette party. Highly recommend!

We had the best time at this property! Everything was smooth and easy from start to finish—seamless check-in, prompt communication, and a spotless home. The views were absolutely amazing and the place had all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay (well-equipped kitchen, cozy bedding, and thoughtful touches).The only small downside: the listing says five bedrooms, but one of those sleeping areas is actually an open loft (not a fully private bedroom). It worked fine for us, just good to know when planning sleeping arrangements.Overall, a fantastic stay—we’d happily come back and highly recommend it!

Great stay. Newer build with all your household needs met. Garage. Great private location but within distance of others if needed. Short ten minute drive down the well kept road into town for dining or other needs. Will do this one again for sure!
