The house was exactly what we needed for a trip for a family wedding. We loved the four bedroom setup and big kitchen / dining area. Bonus that it was walking distance to the wedding venue, and also other cabins/campsites where we had family and friends staying. Beautiful views too!

We stayed for a family vacation with 6 adults and a 1 yr. old. The house is very well decorated and had absolutely everything we needed. The location is centrally located in the Hills and was relatively close to all the sights we wanted to see. We especially enjoyed being so close to Hill City and all it has to offer.

Happy Trails Lodge is amazing! It is conveniently located to all of the Black Hills & attractions. It is beautifully appointed with everything you could possibly need & very clean & maintained very well. We have stayed at this property 3 times as it perfectly meets our needs with 4 bedrooms & 2 baths. The hosts are very easy to work with & respond quickly to any questions. We plan to return for future stays!
