Great place in the Hills to stay

The cabin was very nice as well as the outdoor areas to sit on benches by an amazing view of the creek, vegetation and beautiful rock formations. Plus the ice cream store next door was fun!! Staff was amazing!

Needs maintenance

Door frame rotten at floor and deck. Had to step over each time entering or exiting thinking that we'd step through. Mentioned to mgr with no reaponse. Live mouse. We caught and killed. (Kinda to be expected when there is bait inside the unit that we found after the fact while looking for mouse.) Other than that, the place was clean, peaceful, great location, great staff, great food at the ice cream shop. We've stayed before but will ask more queations before booking again.

As expected- for the most part

Stay went well. Minor hiccup with housekeeping - booked for six but only had four towels and no sheets for pullout bed. Owner brought in more next day. Quiet aside from the main road - expected for tourist area. Mini golf was closed - under maintenance. Cabin has mouse trap and mouse droppings in water heater closet - none visited us though. One AC unit in main living area. We were surprised that it was enough for the whole house. Goose poop covers the yard by the creek - expected - bring old shoes. Not sure why office is only open 9-3. Tourist area. No one is at cabins during that time. Would be better to have split hours - like 7-9am and an on call time during evening. Just my opinion. Overall, as expected and ok for $$ we paid.

Black Hills birthday

The cabin was clean and comfortable. It was centrally located to all we wanted to do and see. If there was one thing, I would have liked it to be farther from the highway as the traffic noise was a bit overpowering at times.

Fishing Trip🐟

The cabin was beautifully angled toward a creek so the boys could fish any time. We rented Razors , Pantoon boats and fished at several lakes. The cabin was in a perfect location to everything. Wonderful hostess!

Like home & perfect location!

We stayed 4 days and 4 night in the Bears den/cabin 2. The cabin was very clean. It had everything we needed minus our toiletries and food. Walking out the door to a beautiful bluff and creek every morning was so relaxing. The location was perfect for sight seeing and visiting all attractions in the black hills. And we went to the Dairy Twist on site for both dinner and desert a couple of nights. And although it is obvious that this is a local favorite, it is worth the wait! Great find for our vacation!

Cozy, clean and central location

We enjoyed our stay! The unit was very clean and welcoming. The fireplace was a nice touch. The kitchen was furnished with utensils, dishes, pots and pans to satisfy our needs. We would have loved to use the outside grill but we stayed busy sightseeing. Location was a plus as it is central to most of the sites we visited. Thank you!

Great stay

It was a perfect place to rest at the end of our busy days! I’d bring some sort of mattress for the loft, as the cushions were pretty flat. Super clean and the family fun zone was a great place for the kids to play.

Fun cabin

This cabin was an excellent find. It was clean and the adult bed was comfortable. If you have older children it would be a good idea to bring a sleeping mat/sponge for them to sleep on. We absolutely loved the family play ground. The mini golf and activities were so much fun to do after evening meals.

Great location. Challenging internet/service

The cabin was good. Clean. Crew was friendly. Location was great. The decor was very dated but nothing wrong. Our biggest issue was there was NO cell service and the "resort's" Wi-Fi was beyond poor. I'd go to the office and sit by the router and the best I could manage was a slow dial up speed. Trying to find things to do and places to go return no internet was a major draw back. Honestly, I would give this place 5 stars if they had internet.

We enjoyed our stay and would do it again. The cabin was clean and spacious. The fun park area on the property was great. And their restaurant next door was convenient and delicious. We loved the location by the creek and cliff side. No complaints.
