Sep 26, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Gold in Black Hills My husband and I had been planning our trip to South Dakota for 3 years and staying at Tin Mill Cottage was like finding a "nugget" of gold in Hill City. The cottage was clean and had every luxury of home. It was nice after a long day of sight seeing to come back to the comforts of Tin Mill. The location was absolutely perfect for our plans - close to Mt Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Custer Park and not far away from Rapid City. We had daily morning & sometimes afternoon visits from wild turkey & deer in the yard. We had a wonderful vacation! I would like to add a couple of things about comments I read previous to booking Tin Mill Cottage...there was a complaint about 2 hotels nearby and the train being so close. The hotels were there but did not create any noise and we were still on a hill with our own privacy. Yes, the train ran by a couple of times a day while we were there but never early in the morning or late at night. If we go back to South Dakota, and we would really love to..we will most definitely stay at Tin Mill Cottage. ##### Susan F. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### The J. Jun 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Location, Great Cabin, Great Stay We absolutely loved this property for our 6 night stay. It was walking distance to Hill City restaurants and grocery store (if you chose), but on the "quiet" side of the hill. The quiet was only broken by the entertaining whistle of the 1880 tourist train every few hours between 9 and 5ish. The location was convenient to our hiking trailheads in Custer State Park and Black Hills National Forest. The cabin was perfect for the two of us, but could have been just as comfortable for family with children. We found the cabin to be immaculately clean with all the appliances up to date and in working order. The living room and kitchen was spacious with lots of natural light. There was a deck on three sides of the home with multiple seating areas, one under a small gazebo. The kitchen and bathroom was furnished with all the necessities needed for most occupants. We did have to provide some storage bags and spices, but all was good. The beds were comfortable, the handheld pulsating shower head was good and there was plenty of hot water. We appreciated having the covered carport to protect our vehicle from the elements and the willingness of the owner allowing us to hose the dirt from our car after driving on the gravel highway to Spearfish. We would strongly recommend this property for anyone looking to feel like they were getting away from it all while being in the middle of everything. ##### The J.
