Peace and Quiet
We were lucky enough to share in the peace and quiet that this little cabin provides. Even though there are a couple other cabins nearby, we never had anything more than the whisper of the wind in the trees, and the occasional rooster call. We loved every moment here and will be back sooner than I’m sure we both would have thought. Thanks

Great getaway
Enjoyed this lovely cabin and our South Dakota vacation! Location was great, close to attractions but we really enjoyed the privacy and being off the main road. Our cabin was amazing; clean and homey. There was even a lovely basket of goodies for us to enjoy!

Rushmore trip
Cute little cabin, clean, and easy. You can't hear road noise. Came with a little gift basket of snacks and fresh eggs, along with some travel size soap, shampoo, etc. I would definitely use one of those cabins again

Birthdays-Anniversary getaway
We spent a week at this cabin celebrating my wife’s and my birthdays and anniversary. It was perfect! The cabin amazing…very cosy. Great view and location. Welcomed with a gift basket of snacks and fresh eggs. There was also a gift bundle in the bathroom. Location was perfect. Got to visit all the major attractions in the area. Would definitely rent this cabin again. We would like to bring family members and rent a bigger cabin which they also have. We got to see wild deer and turkeys. There was also a resident squirrel that would visit on occasion. Would highly recommend renting these cabins.

Pretty Little Cabin in the Woods
A great property for two. It was immaculate and had everything that we needed for our three day stay. Very close to Rushmore, Custer and Keystone. Owner was very responsive. Could not have been better for us.

Great central location
We stayed for a week, it was a great central location to all the attractions. We did badlands, windcave, jewel cave, mt Rushmore, Custer, crazy horse, deadwood, spearfish canyon. After hiking and site seeing it was great to come back and relax on the porch or around the fire pit of this cozy little cabin . Everything was clean and well stocked and some great goodies from the owner. Only minor suggestion would be some more hangers for clothing. Also not quite as private as we like but definitely would stay again!! Didn’t hear the neighbors at all really! Saw deer and turkey nearly everyday from the cabin. We were very happy with this choice and would Recommend!
