While we do our very best to ensure a "PERFECT" vacation for you, please understand that these are cabins in the woods.... Wildlife and animals come right up to the porch sometimes.
The water is well water, so if any of the fixtures have an orange tint to them that is why! The water is filtered and softened, so safe to shower and use!
We are a message or call away, and will fix any issue ASAP

Quiet cabin in the woods
Enjoyed our stay at the gold mine cabin. Very quiet and easy to find! Didn’t spend much time at the place but it was in the perfect place to drive and see Custer state park and Mount Rushmore.

We stayed here for a base to spend time in the Custer State Park area. The property was quaint and private and had a nice area to relax in a hammock which my kids enjoyed a lot. It was clean and had everything that was needed.

Very comfortable, wonderful cabin in a great location, near all the sights we planned on seeing! You HAVE to stop by the Hermosa coffee shop while you’re in town too. Matt was a great host with quick communication. We had no additional needs while we were there, they addressed them all!

Is there such a thing as too quiet?
Have been to SD twice, exploring what there is to offer, love it by the way, wanted to travel through the badlands and found this place to stay a couple nights. Enjoyed greatly! Just husband wife and little barky dog, perfect size for us.

Black Hills Getaway
Was a wonderful stay. The only problem I had was Matt sent me the lockbox code but not the address. I reached out twice to him and got no reply. I had driven 2000 miles and was in panic mode. I had to reach out to VRBO twice to assist me. They tried as well and could not get in touch with Matt. I finally convinced them to locate the physical address…I was in Hermosa and had nowhere to stay. Was nerve racking to say the least. It was however very charming and was in a wonderful location.

Cute, clean cottage
My husband, dog and I stayed in this small cottage in Hermosa as part of our road trip. It was cute, clean and was in a good location for all we wanted to do in the area. We didn’t eat at the cottage as we were out and about most of the trip, but there were dishes, a refrigerator and electric griddle if we had wanted to. I would recommend it if you are looking for a small, clean place to stay while in the area!

Cabin was exactly as described - wonderful! The kids especially enjoyed it. It's super small and cozy, with only the one neighboring cabin. If you want a "mountain" type stay - don't hesitate. I'm very particular as to where I stay. As soon as we called in we all could smell cleaning supplies. Thanks again for sharing your wonderful rental!
