The water is well water, so if any of the fixtures have an orange tint to them that is why! The water is filtered and softened, so safe to shower and use!

We are a message or call away, and will fix any issue ASAP

Cute, clean cottage

My husband, dog and I stayed in this small cottage in Hermosa as part of our road trip. It was cute, clean and was in a good location for all we wanted to do in the area. We didn’t eat at the cottage as we were out and about most of the trip, but there were dishes, a refrigerator and electric griddle if we had wanted to. I would recommend it if you are looking for a small, clean place to stay while in the area!

We stayed here for a base to spend time in the Custer State Park area. The property was quaint and private and had a nice area to relax in a hammock which my kids enjoyed a lot. It was clean and had everything that was needed.

Cabin was exactly as described - wonderful! The kids especially enjoyed it. It's super small and cozy, with only the one neighboring cabin. If you want a "mountain" type stay - don't hesitate. I'm very particular as to where I stay. As soon as we called in we all could smell cleaning supplies. Thanks again for sharing your wonderful rental!
