Great place in the hills! Host was very good, he gave directions and made sure we knew that we might loose cell service when we turned of hiway. Place was excellent had written instructions to everything wr might need. Kitchen was well stocked with all our cooking needs. Also had a few things, like spices& coffee that we could use. Saved us a trip into town. Would definitely return to this place!
We had so much fun in the Black Hills celebrating our wedding. Dan’s cabin was the perfect place to relax. It was clean and had all the amenities that we needed. The entire property is beautiful and well taken care of. Thank you!
Beautiful property! Everything was just as expected. The photos don’t even do this justice. We loved having coffee & fires on the porch while listening to the creek. This was probably the cleanest VRBO I have stayed in. Highly recommend!
Beautiful cabin up in the hills. A fantastic place to unwind and a great base to explore the region. Attention to detail is fantastic and the cabin is full of local touches. Loved our stay.
We really enjoyed our stay! The cabin and property were even more beautiful in person! The cabin was very clean and had everything we needed. We would definitely stay here again!
Accomodations were just what we expected and hoped for. Location is beautiful with plenty of space to explore and the cabin itself is really lovely. Just the perfect place to stay if you are looking to get away and enjoy SD in comfort. 10/10 recommend!
We had a fantastic stay at this location!! It’s a beautiful and secluded cabin in the Black Hills with a wonderful view. Everything was clean, well put together. I have zero complaints and would stay here again in a heartbeat
It’s so relaxing, comfortable and filled with such special touches! Working with Dan was amazing and we were so thankful he wanted to share his place with us!
The private cabin outside of Deadwood was an amazing house. The house was in excellent condition and the surrounding area was quiet. There were many attractions and hime within a few minute drive. Would definitely recommend this place for anyone stayi g in the area.
The cabin was absolutely perfect! A gorgeous place in a beautiful setting. The kitchen had everything we needed to prepare a couple of meals there. The location was ideal for exploring the beautiful scenery of Western South Dakota.
It was also great to be able to enjoy the trip with our dogs - so thank you for allowing us to bring them to your place!
Can’t say enough great things about this place. Beautiful home, very private location despite being so close to Deadwood, and our dog was welcomed, which we can’t appreciate enough. If I could give it 10 stars I would, we absolutely loved our stay. Thanks a ton Dan for letting us stay in your wonderful fortress of solitude.
Great place to stay. Very comfortable. Kitchen stocked with cooking essentials so that was much appreciated.
Enjoyed the deck and listening to the creek.
We absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful cabin. It is only 10 minutes to Deadwood but you feel completely secluded. The cabin had everything we needed and was very comfortable for our family. I would love to stay again one day, hopefully when it is warm enough to fully take advantage of the incredible front porch!
We only had a few days, but couldn't have picked a better place to stay. We loved everything about the house and area. It was so nice to sit outside and listen to the creek, very relaxing! The kids and the dog had a lot of fun down in the creek also.
We had the perfect stay at Destiny Cabin. A peaceful cabin in the woods away from traffic and other humans. Loved the old plunges in the creek pool and the S’mores by the fire. Highly recommend.
