South Dakota Vacation
Beautiful area, saw several deer and chipmunks. We had problems finding enough linens for the number of people we had staying, and the water would wane out if more than one person was taking a shower. Overall, the property is clean and comfortable. I would stay here again.

Family Memories
Nice property with plenty of sleeping for multiple families. We had a family reunion in the hills with 11 adults, 2 teens, and a tiny infant. The kitchen, dining, living area is open and spacious with plenty of seating for everyone to hang out in the same place. The kitchen was supplied with all the pans, utensils, and appliances for cooking, and also had spices and coffee. Only thing we could've used more of was a few extra blankets for couch sleepers and the large air mattress that was onsite. Overall, a great place close to all of the Black Hills fun!

Great home
Perfect home for our family's vacation. The Manager was very accommodating and met our needs within minutes! The home was adequately furnished and plenty of outdoor space for kids to play. We had two deer that we could see from the picture window! I would love to rent this home in the future and it's only about 2 miles from Hill City:-)

This is a great house.
We have stayed at this house multiple times. It is just right for a large family group, with plenty of places for people to gather. There are also many configurations for sleeping arrangements. The location is perfect, being just out of the hub-bub of Hill City, but close enough to get there easily. We enjoy walking on the Mickelson Trail, just out the door in the evenings when our activities for the day are finished.

Great Place
The property was very clean when we arrived. Everything was in working order. The most important, the bed were very comfortable. Plenty of room for our three families ( 5 adults 3 kids). We contacted the property managers once for a minor problem and got an immediate response. Even though this was the first week of April there was a major blizzard with over a foot of snow for the first couple of days. We just stayed at the house and enjoyed watching it snow. This is a great location for Mt Rushmore, Badlands, Wind Cave and other fun spots. Timing was not the best, the snow canceled our planned hikes, but we still had a lot of fun. This is a great place to stay and I would highly recommend it. We all agreed to come back on another year and hope for better weather. Don't miss going to the Wind Cave it was the highlight of our stay.

Great experience
This home was better than the listing portrays. The location is ideal. Plenty of space and privacy inside and out. Close to Hill City and the beauty of Deerfield Lake. Central to all Black Hills activities. We’d definitely come back. The only recommendation would be to stock the kitchen with basic cleaning supplies.

Annual Black Hills family vacation
Black Hills is our family go to and every year we choose a different cabin to enjoy our time out in the hills. This cabin was great for the space we needed. We were able to do all kinds of activity around this location, such as the Mickelson Trail / ATV trails / and also being close to Hill City. The only issue we had was the gas stove indoors was not working and we were told to use the electric stove out in the garage (by the cleaning people). Looking back on previous current reviews this wasn't a new issue like we were told when we arrived (it was an ongoing issue not resolved). Other then that I would recommend this great location to accommodate your next family vacation.
