Great Stay
Our cabin was so cute and very clean! It was very private and had everything we needed. Our hosts left a cute gift basket for us and toiletries in the bathroom. I would definitely stay there again. It’s very close to Mt. Rushmore and many other attractions.

Short stay, but wonderful
The cabin was just as listed. Very clean and well stocked with all of the necessities and some fun extras. It is a small cabin, and there isn’t a lot of storage space, but it should be just fine for most people. We were on the tail end of a three week trip, so we had large suitcases and a ton of extra stuff. Property is wonderful. Lovely to sit on the deck and watch the deer. Very close to Mt. Rushmore, without being in the middle of all of the tourists. We were able to beat the crowds by going early and then go back at night to watch the lighting ceremony. If we’re ever back in this area, we would stay here agajn.

Yak Ridge - Cabin 1
The cabin was very clean and well furnished. Julie was the host and really thought of everything people may need while during their stay. The farm tour is also great if you have kids coming along. It was really neat waking up in the morning and seeing deer just a few yards away from the cabin also.

Fabulous Trip!
What a beautiful cabin! We stayed in cabin 1 during our stay. It’s located near just about everything we wanted to do. The cabins are clean, cozy, and cute! We enjoyed the quiet nature and sitting by the bonfire. Julie is an amazing host! Our children loved the farm tour and feeding the Yaks and chickens. We will definitely be back! 5 stars!

Cute, clean & well stocked cabin
These are super cute cabins! More of a high class stay. They were in great location in woods with deer walking around and about 10 mins from town & Mount Rushmore. Well stocked in my opinion with snacks & coffee, toiletries, soft towels, information & maps regarding all the surrounding points of interest. She is very well organized & timely in responding to inquiries. Had a great time. Would definitely stay again.
