Little piece of paradise, Mickelson Trail Lodge.

Little piece of paradise, Mickelson Trail Lodge.

8/10 Good
"The cabin itself is beautiful and is in an excellent location to everything you would want to do in and around the Black hills. The host had excellent communication. Unfortunately the hot tub was out of commission for the duration of our stay. The Host remedied this by providing free firewood for the week. (It's up for debate amongst my family members if that remedy was sufficient enough or if money back would have been better) My only real complaint about the property is that all the bedding is REALLY old and there's no shade covering on the pergola next to the pool. We paid a little more than 10,000 for a weeks stay and for that amount of money I would expect pillows that aren't flat as pancakes and bedding that's newer. It would be a vast improvement to this beautiful cabin if the host would purchase some new sheets, blankets, pillows and a shade covering for the pergola. I really hate to make a complaint, but I think for most people 10,000 is not a drop in the bucket and it's no different for me and my family. I don't think it's unreasonable that when you spend that kind of money, you should expect the bedding to be new. I have no doubt that the the bedding that we slept on had been washed, but it probably has been washed about a thousand times lol"

"Place was clean and beds were comfortable. Just disappointed with well water and mineral deposits so bring bottled water. Not much ice production for coolers. Minor maintenance issues and one ceiling fan could not change speeds. Host was great with responding to questions. Overall good stay, but a little pricey."
