Wow!

Talk about impressive! This was by far the cleanest most stocked VRBO we have ever stayed at. We were apprehensive about staying in a place where the residence lived below. It was not a problem at all. Carol was wonderful and did not bother us. The cabin is centrally located between the trail system and local attractions.

Beautiful Spot!

The cabin was spacious, decorated in a lovely way and was very clean. The view off the front deck of the meadow was beautiful. The location was near paths for our pups to run, a great golf course was not too far and a perfect spot to take a day for sightseeing. Thanks for the great long weekend stay!

Family vaca in the Hills

Peaceful and beautiful property and home that is perfect for getting off the grid a bit, yet close enough to enjoy Mt Rushmore, Lake Pactola, Spearfish Canyon and all the scenery along the way. The owners are kind and inviting.
