Black Hills vacation We had the best time on our vacation. We were gone most of the day, but our kids had a blast at the house whenever we were there. The home was stocked with everything you could need, and the property is beautiful! We were all so sad to leave.

A Charming Stay To celebrate my mother's retirement, an immigrant who obtained citizenship 30 years ago, we visited Mount Rushmore. The monument, although designed by Gutzon Borglum, was carved by Luigi del Bianco: an Italian immigrant. It was a great trip to bookend one chapter of her journey. My family chose to stay at this cabin for it's convenient location. My sisters loved the kitchen setup, and my brother enjoyed the grill on the patio. The kids, LOVED the game room, and I'm simply thankful for the enormous space!Checking in and out was a breeze, and our host proved herself exemplary, as her ratings suggested. I will say, driving with an RV to the site was a little challenging at first, but it was doable. Otherwise, I can't say enough great things about this place.

Great for a family reunion! This house was absolutely perfect for us! My siblings, parents and I do a family get together every year and this house may be the best one we’ve stayed at yet! We had 5 couples and 2 kids under 12. The rooms and beds were great and comfortable, the loft (which is open, no door, just for those looking!) was great and we could’ve fit more people if we needed to! Everything we needed was there, everything was in working order. The playset outside and the slack line with rings between the trees and the saucer swing hanging from the tree were all perfect for the kids! Plus foozball and toys and games inside! Great outdoor space for tossing the frisbee and football around that we brought. The house was in a very quiet place with plenty of open space but was still an easy 20-30 minutes from all the main tourist attractions like Mount Rushmore, Reptile Gardens, and Bear Country (with no traffic to deal with!). Overall we were very very happy with our stay!

Fantastic Home! The home was perfect for all of our family. It was so kids friendly that the great grandchildren were easily entertained. It was great to have outside activities to do, too. My daughters loved the arrangement of the kitchen. Thank you for sharing your home,

Fun We had a couple of different families coming together for a “Rushmore” Labor Day weekend retreat. Everyone was able to find the property with relative ease. The grounds are taken care of and have a great seclusion aspect. In the morning a great sunrise and beautiful views. The wrap around deck is fantastic for families who have several different age groups. I would highly recommend this property for families that are looking for a quiet retreat. Fantastic communication with the property owners as well!!!

Excellent family vacation spot We really enjoyed our stay here. We had 14 people in our group, ranging from an infant to grandparents, and there was plenty of space for us all. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to cook big group dinners. We loved the huge deck with ample seating, and our kids especially loved playing in the yard and with the games out there. The area was quiet and it felt like we had it all to ourselves. The host and owner were responsive, friendly, and helpful. A couple of the mattresses could stand to be replaced, but other than that, we were very happy!
