The cabin was very clean and had everything we needed. Our family of eight enjoyed being together and there was plenty of room. It is close to Pactola Lake where we spent Father's Day with a picnic and playing in the water. Easy to come back and bbq steaks for dinner. Great vacation!

Cabin Getaway

We were looking for a remote, peaceful place, and this definitely fit the bill. We enjoyed our stay here and sitting on the deck, enjoying the pines. It was close to the major attractions that we were interested in also.

Very nice cabin in the Black Hills

Three of my family members and I stayed in this spacious cabin situated in a beautiful location. The cabin was clean and well equipped. Check in and check out was no problem. The host was responsive to the one question that I had. I highly recommend this cabin if you are looking for a quiet location in the woods that is conveniently located near the things to see in the Black Hills.

Family Vacation

The home was very nice, everything was clean and worked. The description was accurate except I was expecting the kitchen to be on the main floor not upstairs, but that was not a problem. The view from the deck was excellent. No need to contact the property manager at all, definitely enjoyed the stay, would do it again.

Great few days away

We had a wonderful stay! The cabin was clean and well stock with everything we needed. Definitely stop for groceries before you arrive, as it is quite a trek to the nearest store. We were a little unprepared for the more out of the way location, but it did lend itself to quiet relaxing evenings after a busy day of sightseeing. Would recommend and stay again.

Comfy family stay!

Everything was great! It is super comfortable, nicely decorated, with all the modern perks but feels isolated with a lovely view off the deck. Easy to get to everything in the area, and even day trips to Devils Tower and the Badlands. It felt like home for my two little kids. They didn’t want to leave!

Cabin deep in the woods

Cabin was miles away from main road. We wanted something quiet and we got that. It’s great for little kids. Our four and one year old had a fun time at the cabin. It was a very easy stay. The cabin had everything we needed. It’s a great cabin for everyone!!!
