About this property

Cozy cabin with a great fire pit area.

This cute cabin is located near Hill City, South Dakota, and is at the center of everything the Black Hills has to offer!

Built in the mid 50's this cabin was originally a bunkhouse but has since been converted into a one bedroom cabin with a kitchen/living room area, separate bedroom, and bathroom. It still retains the vintage feel but has updates that make this cabin clean and comfortable.

This cabin can accommodate two guests in one bedroom with a new, comfortable king bed. Linens are provided as well as a nice comforter.

Off the bedroom is a bathroom with a shower/tub. We provide towels, wash clothes, a floor mat, and hand towels. Upon request we will exchange used towels for fresh towels. Toilet paper and liquid hand soap are also provided but personal hygiene items such as shampoo and body wash are not. A hair dryer is available upon request.

The kitchen area has a stove, refrigerator, a microwave, and a toaster. It is stocked with pots, pans, cooking utensils, dishware, and cups. A coffee maker and filters are provided as well, however, we do not provide coffee, sugar, or creamer. Dish soap, a dish scrubby, and a dish towel are provided as well as paper towels.

In the same area guests will find a love seat for lounging after a long day of sight seeing as well as a dining table with two chairs. The wall-mounted television is serviced by Dishnetwork to provide additional entertainment.

Air conditioning is provided in the bedroom and box fans will be throughout the cabin to help keep things comfortable during the summer. On the cooler days space heaters are more than capable to keep this tiny cabin nice and toasty.

Outside there is a picnic table, charcoal barbecue, fire pit, and refreshing views of the surrounding thick pine forest of the Black Hills. You will also see our free range chickens roaming the property. Both firewood and fresh eggs are available for purchase on site. Charcoal and lighter fluid that other guests have left may be available at no charge.

These eco-friendly cabins feature limited housekeeping and pets are not allowed.

Parking is limited so if you intend on bringing trailers or recreational vehicles, we encourage you to reach out to us to discuss parking options before you book.

Surrounded by public lands, Mitchell Lake is a short walk away and offers a great view, kayaking and fishing opportunities. Wild raspberries and wildflowers can often be found near by as well.

Our property is perfectly centrally located in the beautiful Black Hills.Needles Highway, Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse Monument, Custer State Park, and Rapid City are all within a short 30 minute drive of your front door. This cabin is only two miles from Hill City, which has a grocery store, hardware store, many great restaurants and shops. Walmart and Target are only a 25 minute drive into Rapid City.

Our 2.5 acre property consists of five cabins, and a six room motel. There is also a playground for the kids to release some energy.

Come see what the Black Hills of South Dakota has to offer and stay at our family friendly and comfortable property.

Adorable, clean and perfect location

This was such a clean, quaint cabin that was absolutely perfect for my husband and I. Firepit was very nice and was able to buy firewood right on the property which was delivered. The chickens were so friendly and we loved them! Bed was comfy, kitchen stocked with everything we needed and an overall perfect stay. Definitely would stay again

Excellent location in the Hill City

This tiny cabin is a great “base camp“ for Mount Rushmore, crazy horse, and the badlands. Our hosts were extremely friendly and gracious. The property, while small, met our needs (there were two of us). Would definitely come back and stay again.

Cabin getaway

Decent little place for what you pay. No locks on the windows so if security is a concern just keep that in mind but other than that a decent place near Mt. Rushmore and adventure rentals.

Perfect location

Sweet little converted bunkhouse. Perfect for us. The location is right in the middle of some of the most beautiful scenery South Dakota has to offer. We highly recommend the Iron Mountain and Needles Highways. The hosts were amazing and worked very hard to make sure our stay was pleasant. I highly recommend any of the accommodations at the Robins Roost.

Great little cabin!

My friend and I stayed at this cabin for a weekend trip to the black hills. The drive to get there was beautiful and it was in the center of all the major hills attractions. The property was very clean and we had everything we needed if we wanted to cook or have a firepit! The beds were very comfy too haha. The owner was very helpful and communicative on any questions we had or anything we needed! It was an overall great experience and if we ever get the chance I'd definetly consider staying here again.

Great spot for the rally

Owners we’re very gracious and were constantly available if needed. Cabin was clean and just the right size for two guys traveling to the Sturgis rally. Cabin had a refrigerator and microwave, but no stove. A cooktop was available but we didn’t need/want it. Overall, very satisfied with the rental.
