The cabin was just as pictured in the photos. It was very clean and had all the bedding, utensils, starter items you need for a comfortable stay. It was located in a very convenient spot right off Hwy 16 so it was easy to find and drive to the different sites in the Black Hills. It was too hot to use the hot tub but it looked nice. I would stay here again if we return.

Everything was as advertised. Been here before and would go again. Had one small- very small issue with a digital door lock. I texted the host and within minutes, like 2 minutes- there was a reply and a different code was givin for immediate entry. I would recommend this property to anyone. We had two small kids with and, it also worked just fine for them. Zero complaints. Nice place.

Cabin was as listed, comfortable, clean and very spacious (2 couples). Very close to Mt Rushmore, Custer, Wind Cave and the hot tub was a pleasure to sit in after a full day of sightseeing. Bridget let us know we could check in early since cleaners were done and gave us excellent restaurant recommendations. Highly recommend this cabin for a visit to the Black Hills.
