We would love to have you back every time your back in the Black Hills area!!! Lainey
Our Host was very easy to work with and answered any questions we had right away. We had everything we needed, and we were a very convenient distance from the cute shops downtown to walking from an amazing park and fish hatchery. We would definitely stay here again.

Thanks for your awesome review Adam!! I am so glad you loved the location and enjoyed the house! We too love being able to walk 5 min to all the bars/stores/restaurants, we even did it in a blizzard once and it was so fun! Thanks for your recommendation and we would love to have you back anytime you're in the area! Kindly, Lainey
Friendly host and very attentive! Great house! Well set up and very user friendly. Everything you need to have your family stay as a home away from home. Easy to cook together and be seated together for meals. Entertainment for the grandkids and exceptionally clean and organized!! Comfortable beds. Highly recommend!!

Hi Carrie, Thank you so much for such a detailed and wonderful review!!! It is always fun to see when our guests recognize and appreciate all the love we poured into making the Elk's Getaway a real escape for their holidays! We can't wait for you to return next time you're in the area!Lainey
The host was beyond helpful and hospitable. The house was clean and so spacious. Sometimes lisitings exaggerate how many people can stay comfortably but this one was right on the mark. Very nice property.
From the owner: "Thanks Heidi, I am so glad you enjoyed the Elk's Getaway and the beautiful area of Spearfish, SD - truly it is one of the nation's greatest secrets! We would love to have you back anytime you're in the area!"
From the owner: "Thank you for your review. We are delighted that you found the house well-suited to your needs and exceeded your expectations! It was wonderful to hear that your adult children also appreciated the detailed directions and labels throughout the house. The great location, making it easy to walk everywhere in town, including the university, added to your experience. We would love to welcome you back anytime you're in the area!"
Worked well as we were able to use the outside community patio space. The living room/dinning room area is very small so hard to "hang out" together.

From the owner: "Hi Jamie, I am glad we were able to accommodate your early check-in needs and that you enjoyed the outdoor space! We're also glad you enjoyed the location of our condo; it's one of its biggest perks!The right vacation home is everything, and so I am sorry you found the downstairs living/dining area too small for your group of 11 people. The area does accommodate 10 people at the table, 4 people at the bar, and 5 people in the living area, not to mention the upstairs area accommodates 12 people easily.The listing photos aim to give a clear picture of the home's layout so guests have the ability to choose the best fit for their stay. Have a great summer!"
Very well maintained, modern appliances, outside space with chairs

Hi Denise, Thank you for your brief, but so nicely worded review as a clean and maintained home is our first priority to ensure our guests feel spoiled and like you're someplace special when you stay at the Elk's Getaway! You were a delightful guest and I am glad we found that item that had been left behind and we were able to coordinate and get that back to you ASAP. Safe travels home and please keep us in mind for the next time you're in the area! Kindest regards, Lainey

From the owner: "Thank you, Heidi, being just a few blocks/walking distance from Black Hills State University is certainly convenient when visiting your kids!! I am so happy you chose the Elk's Getaway, and we would love to have you back for any BSHU events!!"
Our family of eight had a fabulous time in this beautiful home. So much space and wonderful areas to retreat to. We have never stayed in a better VRBO.
This home was beyond amazing! We had a wonderful time. The house is located walking distance to downtown Spearfish, we went Killian’s almost every night of our stay. The end of the Sundance to Spearfish marathon less than a mile drive. The weather was gorgeous, we enjoyed the outdoor seating area. Kitchen fully furnished, we cooked breakfast and dinner easily. Beds were comfy and we appreciated the functional ceiling fans. This is literally the first VRBO we’ve stayed in where the owners literally thought of and labeled everything. The amenities were better than some five star hotels.

Darby, thank you so much for your amazing and detailed review!!! I am so touched by your kind words, we love to travel and so labeling everything seemed second nature LOL I am so happy you enjoyed the location and we LOVE Killians too! You and your group were amazing guests and we would love to have you back every time you're in the Black Hills area!! Thank you so much, Lainey
Loved it! Extremely clean and very comfortable. Within walking distance to downtown, but the area the house is in is completely quiet and peaceful. Had so much fun with the arcade table after long days of hiking and sightseeing around the area. Would definitely stay here again!

Thank you so much for being our very first guest and for your amazing review! We were so happy to host you and your family and we looking forward to seeing you again!
Our quick stay was wonderful. It was literally like a home away from home for our group. We unfortunately were in town for a funeral and the home was very comfy for 5 adults and a toddler. The property was clean, inviting and one of the best vrbo’s we have ever stayed in. Our communication with the owners was easy and appreciated. We would definitely recommend this place to stay in Spearfish and hope to stay again soon.

The house was perfect for our group. Plenty of room for gathering and playing games. Loved the cute little signs and coffee on the front porch in the morning was perfect. Everything was there that we needed and very clean.
Our stay was amazing. We had interaction with the host right away. No surprises. The house was very clean and they thought of everything to make our stay comfortable.

From the owner: "Hi Myron, thank you for taking the time to write your review of the Elk's Getaway! I am so happy everything was perfect for you and your beautiful family! Please come back again soon, we would love to have you."
We stayed over the Thanksgiving holiday… 4 adults and one teenager. There was plenty of room to spread out and relax. The home appears to be new construction. 5 large bedrooms and 3 large full bathrooms plus a 1/2 bath on the main floor. The host was very responsive when we had questions and very accommodating. We will definitely stay here again.
This is by far the most perfect vacation home we have ever stayed in! The hosts have thought of absolutely everything…and I mean EVERYTHING! The home is beautifully furnished and decorated and was immaculate. It is incredibly spacious and the beds were exceptionally comfortable. We felt right at home immediately. It is in the best location and we can’t wait to come back!
