The space
Secluded Black Hills living just minutes from lakes, mountains, and iconic national landmarks. Cloudview Lodge is a quiet, private Black Hills retreat designed for comfort, relaxation, and adventure. Located on the outskirts of town, it offers a more private, tucked-away feel while still being just a short drive to shopping, dining, and major attractions.
You’ll experience a balance of privacy and convenience—ideal for guests who want nature nearby without being too far from town. Wildlife sightings (deer, turkey, and occasional elk) are also common in the area.

What You’ll Love

Inside, the living room features a cozy fireplace, comfortable seating, and a TV for movie nights. Every bedroom also has its own TV, so everyone can relax in their own space.
For entertainment, the lodge includes board games, arcade games, books, and reading materials, making it easy to enjoy slower mornings, cozy evenings, or downtime between adventures.
