Good location in the Black Hills. Good access to all parts of the southern Hills.Refrigerator was off and warm when we arrived. Moved plug to different plugin and it then worked.No furniture or chairs in first floor master bedroom to lay luggage on. Not convenient to lay luggage on floor.Would be nice to have grab bars in the first floor bathroom tub shower, which was very slippery. Also a few towel bars would be nice instead of a few hooks.We also found a couple of other electrical plugins that did not work.

A full house!
We were very happy with the location of this house. I would have loved a dishwasher with as many of us as there were, but it was fine. If you're going during a hotter time, bring fans as the upstairs does not cool down well, and extra blankets for those in the basement, as that stays very cold. The bedrooms do not have ceiling lights, so it is pretty dark in there in the evenings. We took advantage of the hot tub and fire pit and loved watching the horses walk by us each morning and evening. There was plenty of space outside for the kids to play and spread out. The host was amazing when I had questions and super responsive! Thank you!

Great parking for trailers. Location is great for accessibility to Mickelson Trail and ATV trails. Appreciate the number of beds, but not a lot of living space for everyone to eat or hang out.There are minor upgrades that would be nice, such as a working can opener, a functional serving spoon, a pair of scissors, night stands by all beds, and a larger water heater for everyone to shower. Another good upgrade would be a bathroom in the basement since there are 2 queen beds down there and the upstairs bathroom is difficult to use if someone is sleeping in the loft.

Pre Deployment vacation with Family
We didnt know there was a code to access the house. I didnt hear from anyone the day of arrival which is common courtesy. I had to go to the office for the other properties at the same site for help to call our host to get the code. The refrigerator wasnt turned up before our arrival so took about a day and a half to get to temp. Overall the house was a great size for amount of people we had. We own property on the same road and in Rapid City so am very familiar with the area. Thank you for an enjoyable stay. Would love to do it again in the future.

March 26-27 2025. Family Vacation
Traveling family of five (including 18 year old and grandparents in their 80s).Beautiful location- 3 miles from Hill City. Super close to Crazy Horse. House is minimal but very well equipped and very clean. We had a minor issue with the toilet in the first 10 minutes of our arrival and the home owner responded immediately with some instructions and had someone out to double check within hours. Highly recommend!

Mother's 80th Birthday
We loved being able to celebrate our mother's 80th birthday with family all together. We were able to stay together in a cabin that allowed us to eat together, sleep comfortably, play cards, and watch movies. An added plus was the outside environment. We were able to pet horses, sled and take walks! Peaceful. Pretty. Perfect.

Great Home Base for Visit
The location was great, very convenient to Mount Rushmore and tourist attractions near there. House was comfortable, pleasant and as described on the listing and properly ready for us. Just had a small issue which was very satisfactorily resolved. Communication with the host was excellent. Wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.
