We loved our week long stay at Lazy Dog Lodge! It was a great home away from home. It was in a great location as far as proximity to Lead and Deadwood and all our little day trips. Beds were comfortable and home was clean with a well equipped kitchen. The host was very prompt in responding to questions. Just a caution...it is a steep gravel driveway if considering bringing a trailer along. There is a lot of room for parking a trailer at the top of the driveway, but would be mildly challenging to back it up the steep drive. We were grateful we had decided to rent a UTV rather than trailer our own out for this trip. It was no problem for our trucks though. Lazy Dog Lodge is a great choice for a place to stay! Loved the layout! 3 full baths and 2 half baths were nice for our party of 10! Highly recommend. And it was walking distance to the Boar's Nest on 14A. Check it out!

The property was very nice. Plenty of room for seven adults. We liked having a garage where two vehicles could get inside when the weather changed, saw deer in the back yard, nice to relax in the hot tub and plenty of card games on the table in dining area.

We had a blast at the lazy dog cabin! It’s a very short 5-7 min drive to Terry Peak, which is exactly why we chose this place. It’s cozy and very clean. Highly recommend.

Great place to stay!

What a great location! We had lots of deer visit us in the backyard:-) This is a home with plenty of space. Communication with property management was fantastic and they were willing to help us out with all of our needs. All of the beds were awesome, except the primary bedroom…that could use a new mattress. We enjoyed our stay!

Thanksgiving Get-A-Way

3 adults and 4 kids stayed very comfortably in the Black Hills Lodge. We could have easily accommodated more. Plenty of appliances/cookware for a traditional Thanksgiving feast. Hot tub was great. The place was clean. Close to Lead and Deadwood….the kids had a lot of fun in Deadwood. Driveway is steep so need 4WD with the snow.

College buddies trip

House was exactly as described. It's closer than we expected to the main road, but you'd never know! You don't hear cars or anything which was really nice! Hot tub was not working during our stay which was unfortunate, but host was quick to respond to messages about it and we all just hung out inside instead which was just fine as it was a bit chilly out during our stay! Overall had a great weekend getaway here with friends!

Beautiful, spacious, and convenient!

Be prepared for a steep, loose rock driveway, but that's the only worry at this property! Spacious inside and out. Loved having multiple outdoor spaces to enjoy. If you have small kids, there is no highchair and the staircases are fairly open, so would recommend ages 2 and up. We loved that there were a variety of toys there for the kids to enjoy. The water pressure dropped day 2 of our stay, but was addressed quickly by the property manager. Great location right off a main highway. Would stay again!

House was great! Perfect location. Plenty of rooms, bathrooms and out door space to accommodate multiple couples. Only warning is driveway is super steep and gravel so if you are coming out to ride motorcycles please be warned!! If you are a very seasoned rider or on trikes you should be fine once you have gone up and down a time or two but you will need to unload your bikes down on the road if you trailer! Would not recommend for new or inexperienced riders!!!

Lazy dog stay

Beautiful property. Location was awesome. Hot tub could be cleaner. Maybe due to issue with the well? There was no soap in any shower. Had to go to the store. Some of the chairs are getting wobbly around the island. Other than that a very cozy place.

Great Stay for Large Group

This cozy home was a great vacation spot for our family of 11 (ages 2-64). We had plenty of space, rooms, and bathrooms. The kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked and the property was well maintained. The basement space with double bunkbeds was amazing for the kids and offered them a place to relax, play foosball, and watch tv. The backyard area backs up to a mountain and we were able to watch deer, birds, chipmunks, and butterflies from the patio and large front deck. We did not use the hottub so i cannot comment to that. We were able to easily travel to Spearfish (check out the hatchery for a fun, free activity) and Rapid City and felt it was conveniently located to visit all of our places of interest. The book with suggestions for restaurants and siteseeing was very helpful. The driveway is as steep as it looks in the photos, and the door to get in is at the top, so that is something to be mindful of if traveling with anyone who has limited mobility. Additionally this property is directly off the main road. Neither of these were/would be deal breakers for us and we would not hesitate to stay here again. Thanks for a wonderful stay!
