The location was perfect for us to see the sights. The cabin was beautiful inside with the knotty pine and rustic tables. The window unit and fans kept it quite comfortable. When the weather turned cold, the gas heater was cozy and sufficient. The only problem was the invasion of stink bugs inside. I would definitely go back but not during stink bug season!

Nice Cabin

This cabin was nice- very clean and as advertised in the photos and the listing. Check in was very easy. It is a bit further from Keystone/ Mount Rushmore than I realized, but not too bad. The amenities are minimal (only a few plates and bowl, no soap in the shower), but overall it was a great place to stay.

Close to Custer State Park and Mount Rushmore!

Cute, clean cottage in a beautiful setting. Away from the hustle and bustle of town. If you like to cook your own meals while on vacation, you’ll need to plan ahead for groceries. We found a great grocery store in Hill city about 15 minutes from the cabin. Enjoy your stay! You won’t be disappointed.

Perfect cabin away from the crowds but close to town

My mom, my husband and I, our two kids (9/11) stayed during late June. Perfect weather! No crowds. Cabin is located minutes from all the attractions, but also nestled away for peace, quiet and privacy. Our family enjoyed the location, we spent most evenings outside making a fire pit, playing a board game, roasting s’mores and enjoying nature. Thanks for letting us stay!

Beautiful property in the Black Hills

This is a wonderful cabin home in the Black Hills. Beautiful scenery!! Good location with easy travel to all the sites! It’s minimally stocked for cooking, but worked for our families needs. It was hot when we were there. The 2 window a/c units did a good job of keeping the main living areas cool, but the bedrooms were warm. Didn’t sleep well. All in all though we had a great time!

This is a wonderfull place to stay at. It took effort to find anything inside that was not dusted or cleaned. The AC works well, all amenities worked and were spotless. The outside has a great view, plenty of animals and birds can be seen. The location is great too, right next to trails, creeks, and Keystone just up the road a bit.

Great Cabin Getaway

My family of 5 enjoyed our trip to the Black Hills and our stay in this cabin! It is a fun location not too far from Keystone that feels quiet and tranquil. We are big fans of National Parks and Monuments, which is what brought us to the area. We were mostly active during our days, and only spent time at the cabin in the evening. This is a historic cabin that has been updated with modern conveniences. The only issue I had was because of the unseasonably cool weather, the cabin needed to be closed up and the lack of circulation caused me some breathing issues with the dust and allergens of 100 years. If you have asthma, this might not be the place for you! Otherwise, it was a fun cabin for our adventures.

This was a very cute cabin awash with history. Very peaceful with close proximity to Mt Rushmore, Keystone and Custer Park. Wildlife did not disappoint with a huge herd of buffalo being the highlight. Turkeys and deer to greet us in the morning. Will definitely recommend to others!

We love the Glendale Cabin !!

This is our second time staying in the Glendale cabine and we cannot wait to book it again!! We were in the HIlls to ride side by sides with friends and do some touristy things...and this cabin could not be more perfect for our vacation!!! The cabin itself is full of amazing history, is super cute, clean and comfy!! The firepit and picnic table got used a ton...nothing like making breakfast in the grea outdoors, smelling the fresh pine and even feeding an apple to the owners horse across the road, to evenings by the campfire with a spectacular view of the stars!! The location of the cabin is excellent, as well, close to so many Black Hills attractions! And to top it off, you will not meet people nicer than the hosts, Doug and Wendy!! They are amazing!!! If I could give our stay even more than 5 stars, I would!! Fannnntastic Friends getaway and cannnot wait to visit again!! THANK YOU Wendy and Doug for all!! :) :)

About the host

Hosted by Doug and Wendy Skogen

Host profile image
Doug and Wendy purchased this cute cabin in 2013 since then we have done an almost complete remodel on it. Now it is our turn to share the beauty and history of this little place that was once a town of it's own! This town was called Glendale and was famous for mining Tin during the time Mt Rushmore was being born!

Why they chose this property

This property is located just a few miles outside of Keystone off a paved road that is very easy to access. The Glendale cabin is just minutes from most attractions in the hills. You will have all the amentias your own home has to offer.

What makes this property unique

Gold Panning in the creek that runs through this property. Gold pans will be provided!!
