A relaxing holiday in the Black Hills awaits at this peaceful pinetop cabin. The spacious interior has plenty of room for the whole family to spread out and private outdoor features include amazing mountain views, furnished decks, and a covered hot tub. Step outside onto one of the four decks and take in the stunning views and fresh mountain air. Situated just minutes from the Terry Peak Ski Area and only seven miles from Mystic Miner Mountain Resort, this is the ideal base camp for winter recreation. Year-round activities include hiking, fishing, and ATV/off-roading. The nearby towns of Lead and Deadwood offer plenty of local charm and history to discover, along with shops, breweries, and dining options. Mount Rushmore National Memorial is only 54 miles away.
The three-story interior is beautifully appointed and fully furnished for contemporary comfort. Enjoy cozy group gatherings while streaming shows and movies next to the living room fireplace. The upstairs space is designed for multi-function purposes with features including an exercise bike, a two-person Galaga Arcade table, a dedicated desk for remote working, and another TV. The impressive full kitchen comes complete with everything you need to prepare family-style feasts. A large dining table and an adjacent breakfast bar set the stage for shared mealtimes.

Black Hills trip with our exchange students
We had a great time and the house was a perfect size for two families to fit in and still have enough space and activities for the small amount of time we spent there as we fill each of our days with lots of site seeing.

Lovely home, beautiful area, nice location
The house worked great for the 16 of us that came for our family get-together. We enjoyed the outdoor fireplace and grill and the indoor gas fireplace. All the furnishings and beds were comfortable and clean. Great place. Will likely be back again next year!

Family Fun
We have two sons--both families of five. The arrangement was great. One family took the lower level and one the upper level. We were on the main level. Some of the grandkids (in their 20s) used the hot tub. Very nice gas grill on the deck that we used. The incidentals were well supplied.
This is a beautiful property and the only issue we had was with all atv and utvs running up and down the roads in front and behind the property early in the morning until late at night. Many of them were well above the posted speed limit.
We all enjoyed the spacious common areas, deck and eating area. We would like to stay there again in the future.
