This house was a great place for our weekend getaway. The views were beautiful. We had some miscommunication on parking, but it was resolved quickly. I would highly recommend this house for a great stay.
My wife and I booked for a few nights. Loved it!!
The views from the deck were amazing!! The place was very clean. Communication with Julie was great!!
Definitely benefited having 4 wheel drive getting up the steep incline.
We will be back next year!!
This is a must book!!!
Clean cabin! Many places to sleep! Very relaxing to sit on the deck or in the hot tub and take in the view. Enjoyed being able to walk around the house the explore. Owner was quick to respond and also gave us a tip about the drive way that helped very much throughout the stay. Go to the top and turn around and enter the driveway! Enjoyed this house and was glad to be able to stay here.
Although as advertised the driveway is steep, we were able to navigate it with our Toyota Prius. The pictures do not do the views from the property justice! This home was absolutely wonderful for our vacation! Peaceful, relaxing, private. Loved our stay! Absolutely recommend!
Julie was an amazing host. It was easy to contact her and we could tell she really loves this home and wanted us to enjoy our stay. The views from this home were amazing. And you could hike right behind the cabin. We loved exploring the area around the cabin. Sitting on the large deck by the fire or in the hot tub soaking in the beauty of the hills was so peaceful. The cabin itself worked so well for our family. The driveway is very steep —we ended up having to go to the top of the hill and turn around to be able to turn up into the driveway at an angle that worked for our Dodge Ram pickup. I would say a 4 wheel drive does make this easier. The cabin and location was totally worth getting up and down that driveway. We enjoyed the drive up and down the mountain everyday and the views. We stayed for five nights and just hated to leave. Thank you for a wonderful stay Julie!
Great family time in the Black Hills!
The host was quick to respond.
They are NOT joking about the steep driveway but the views from the hottub are worth it!
We enjoyed our stay at the Bercher. The views were amazing as we had our morning coffee on the deck. At night we enjoyed sitting outside by the fire pit.
Overall completely amazing, clean, modern cabin with all/most amenities we needed. Semi secluded for a community with more space and privacy between other cabins than we expected. Very steep driveway and mountainous windy, hilly roads to access the property which the owner does disclose with your booking. We stayed 2 nights with our 2 teens and all of us had a wonderful time -oudoor firepit, oversized fuzzy blankets, hot tubbing under the stars, it was all so relaxing.
We really enjoyed this home on the mountains! It was perfectly located about 30 minutes to all the South Dakota attractions! We loved the home, it was cozy, clean, and well furnished! The views amazing!! We also did one of the ATV tours they offer which was so fun!
Very well kept home with with breathtaking scenery. Incredible location, clean, and classic feel. Convenient amenities, including cookware, coffee maker, washer/dryer, and tv with access to streaming services. Very cozy, even has a hot tub to relax in. Our family enjoyed our stay, and would love to come back!
Great peaceful setting within proximity of plenty to do. Short drive to Sylvan Lake where we hiked up Black Elk Peak. Shorter drive to the reservoir to swim for the day. For some reason the Bear Gulch access gate was closed so that was a bummer. And the house needs a cheese grater. ;) Would recommend.
We were in all of the Bercher as soon as we arrived we all had to get out of the car and just enjoy the view, and be amazed at our accommodations and where it was. We had lots of fun, hot tubbing to grilling steaks on the barbecue to join sitting around the fire pit and viewing the meteor shower. Julie was most accommodating and friendly. Thank you Julie we’ll be back.
Great location right in the heart of all the attractions of the Black Hills. Very quiet neighborhood and outstanding sunrise view. We enjoyed our stay very much.
They were correct...it is a very steep driveway. The house is remote and pleasant. There were issues with the cleanliness of the dishes, we washed everything before using it because of that. The service does say the person staying is responsible for the dishes but they should check to make sure things weren't put away dirty. Everything was comfortable and pleasant.
We had a fantastic time during our stay. We were immediately sold when we saw the photo of three recliners in the living room, since there are three of us. One of our party had to keep her eyes closed whenever we traversed the driveway, but honestly it wasn't an issue in the Tahoe. It felt private, tree'd in well, lots of hot tubbing time and using the fire table was super easy. Other than the prankster female spirit that lives on the upper level, a perfect stay.
House was clean and well represented in pictures, outside of the very steep driveway. The house sits on a cliff which offers beautiful views, but not a place for small children to play. Check in was very easy and host was very responsive.
