It was a wonderful stay. The cabin is by itself & pretty private which we really liked. It could have had a few more pans and cooking utensils but we made due. The bed seems to be lower on the headboard end again we made due. Excellent place to stay.

The apartment was very clean and cozy. It is out in the country away from the tourist area. We loved sitting on the back porch and relaxing. Very pretty view and quiet. Would definitely recommend this place to stay during a visit to the black hills. We absolutely loved it!

We stayed in the cabin from 7/25 to 7/28/24. The cabin is very cozyand well maintained. Nice to come back to a quiet place, after a day of seeing all the sites in the area. We never had to contact or meet Barbara the manager. We enjoyed our stay and would stay here again.
