Beautiful area

We enjoyed our short stay. Julie was very responsive to any inquiries. This being my first VRBO experience, was not sure what to expect. The need to have dishes washed and placed back into the cupboard is challenging. A dirty plate was found. Suggest that dishes be washed in dishwasher to be sure are cleaned,(left in dishwasher if necessary) rather than hand wash and put away dirty.

Amazing week

We came with 5 couples for a week of riding trails with our side x sides. The house worked perfectly with every couple having their own bedroom. Plenty of space to be able to sit around the table at the end of the day for some card games and enough space to be able to spread out if you need some space😉. There are plenty of steps but wasn’t an issue for us. Check in and out was super easy. I would definitely recommend this house. We really enjoyed our week here!

Loved that there were king size beds in 4 rooms! Perfect for 4 couples! That house is dated- stuck in the 80's - but overall it was fine. The beds weren't great but we slept fine. Great location for riding trails!

Rustic relaxation

My extended family from various states met for a week in the Black Hills and we enjoyed our stay at Moose Haven. The owners were kind and helpful when we needed them. Loved being in the middle of the woods and the cabin accommodated our large family well. Thanks for being the place where so many wonderful family memories were made.

Great house but out there

Loved the house - just didn't realize that while it's only 15 miles from downtown - it's a good 45 minute drive because it's in the Black Hills.

Nice, big place for family to gather

The description of this property is quite accurate - there is a lot of space on three different levels for extended family to gather. We liked that everyone could have their own private spaces, yet have adequate living, dining, and outdoor areas to meet and spend time together. There are many amenities, like kitchen dishes, spices, coffee, laundry facilities, sheets and towels, Be aware that the living, dining and kitchen areas are on the second floor, so everyone who is staying here will need to be able to navigate at least a couple flights of stairs. Also, it is so a long, winding, steep, and gravel road to get there, so older or super compact cars may struggle with this. However, the location, once you get on and off the hills it is on, is central to Rapid City proper, Hill City, Custer, and places north like Spearfish. Communication from the property management company was good, and they were generally accommodating. I recommend this place.

Excellent for groups

House was well setup for multiple families. The upstairs was slightly warmer than the rest of the house but they provided a fan for each room if needed. Beds were comfortable and house was well stocked. Property manager was kind enough to allow us in 1hr early as well. We had no concerns during our stay and really appreciated the minimal cleaning prior to checkout with a long drive ahead. Definitely recommend this property.

Large House tucked away in the Beautiful Black Hills

We had an incredible stay at Moose Haven!!! Tons of room for 3 families, we each had our own floor. Everything was great and as described. We loved the tucked away location. The house had everything we needed. My only comment/request for next time would be to clear out some room in the closets and kitchen so guests have more storage space for luggage and food. Overall, we were super pleased and will definitely be back.

Lots of deer and wild turkeys!

Plenty of beds, we had 14 and there were extra beds. The kitchen was well equipped, the beds and living room furniture were excellent. The house is well used, the deck is aging, and it takes ten minutes of winding roads to get to the main road, so I thought the price was a little high because of these factors. Except for the rate, it’s a good property!

I had never used VRBO before. The process was very easy Julie was so easy to communicate with and was so very helpful. We enjoyed ourselves and made so many l good memories. The house was big enough to have our own space when needed, yet small enough to bring us all together. Thank you
