The location was great, everything we wanted to see was about an hour or less from the house. Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Jewel Cave, Wind Cave, Mammoth Dig Site, Badlands, Wall Drug, Deadwood, Sturgis, and Spearfish Canyon. Hill City and Keystone were both close by and convenient for grocery shopping, restaurants, and fun shopping. Also, a very easy drive to and from the airport.The house was clean, bright, comfortable, and well-stocked with supplies, utensils, dishes, towels, and toiletries. The homemade plate of cookies was a great touch!We loved the hot tub; however, all the trees around the house created a perfect place for the birds to hang out, making the deck leading to the hot tub a minefield of bird droppings.The only other negative was that none of the 5 bedrooms had a dresser, and only one or two night tables with a small drawer. We had to live out of our suitcases for the week.We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful part of South Dakota and would reserve this house again without a second thought.

Very nice and clean house

This place worked great for our quick trip to SD. We had two families with teens and there was a good amount of space for sleeping. Would have liked a second area for hanging out, as that was a little cramped with 8 of us, but other than that, it was great. We enjoyed having a hot tub and management was great with communication and accommodation requests. The property does not have a dishwasher or a disposal in the kitchen sink, so that made meal time a little more work.

We were in the area for a wedding and this was the perfect location. Had a washer and dryer for those longer trips and several rooms incase you needed the space. Easy to access and the owners were available for communication throughout the stay. Would stay here again!
