Cabin nestled in the Pines near Lake Pactola! ATV trails! Mt Rushmore! WI-FI

Quite remote in location. No network or WiFi. Driving in and out of the property is tricky especially at night. The place was however was very clean and was well stocked.

Such a lovely cabin way up in the Black Hills! We really enjoyed our stay here with our family of 6 - plenty of room, very quiet & clean, fit all of our needs and was just as described. Definitely check out the top of the road (host describes how to get there in the binder) - you'll get a stunning view of the area. Thank you for sharing this beautiful cabin with us! Just a side note for Aug 2025 - there's a major construction project going on on Hwy 385 and sections of it are closed, causing you to have to take long detours on gravel roads and wait for pilot cars to guide you at times. This probably doubled our drive time every day going to the major attraction areas like Rushmore/Keystone & Custer. No fault of the cabin of course, just so you can plan accordingly if you're visiting during construction :)

Served our needs just fine

The house was perfect for our family. It was very clean and had everything that you can need. Plenty of room for our 3 couples and two kids. Nice patio to sit out on for your morning coffee. We also saw a doe and a turkey with her babies. Hearing a turkey gobble in the morning was so neat. The cabin is also close to the swimming area and great hiking trails. Communication with the owners was wonderful, really appreciated the quick response. We loved our stay at the cabin!!!

Great stay!

The cabin was very clean and had everything we needed. Our family of eight enjoyed being together and there was plenty of room. It is close to Pactola Lake where we spent Father's Day with a picnic and playing in the water. Easy to come back and bbq steaks for dinner. Great vacation!

Three of my family members and I stayed in this spacious cabin situated in a beautiful location. The cabin was clean and well equipped. Check in and check out was no problem. The host was responsive to the one question that I had. I highly recommend this cabin if you are looking for a quiet location in the woods that is conveniently located near the things to see in the Black Hills.

We were looking for a remote, peaceful place, and this definitely fit the bill. We enjoyed our stay here and sitting on the deck, enjoying the pines. It was close to the major attractions that we were interested in also.

Great place to stay. Lots of room. We will be booking again.

Fun, easy and peaceful.

We had our yearly family vacation here this year and we couldn’t have been more relaxed and happy in this cabin away from home! It is far enough away from the city to relax but close enough to do everything we had on our list❤️

This is a nice enough older cabin off the beaten path. My main complaint is that the wifi password was no where to be found and we did not have cell service. There is a book that gives directions on how to get service which is nice, but having the wifi password available would have saved us some trouble. Also there are notes all over the cabin which are helpful but also contradictory. The website says to just start a load of laundry upon leaving but the note on the fridge says to wash and dry all laundry. The deck also seems like it has some weak boards which is a little scary. And there are some steps made of logs going down the hill in the trees and they are not secured at all. Overall this was a nice place to stay, just could use a few tweaks.

It is a nice place. It is almost like 2 places in one. We only used the upper level. The description of the surrounding area that they have for guests in their welcome book, was spot on. We feel blessed to have stayed there. Thank you

Very clean, spacious home in a quiet neighborhood. Comfortable beds and large deck to spend time outdoors. Beautiful views. Highly recommend this home for a fun getaway in the Black Hills.

Beautiful family getaway on nearly the top of a mountain. Beautiful views, plenty of room, and very peaceful. Hosts were easy to communicate with, informative, and thorough. It was a lovely stay.

Thank you for sharing your cabin in The Hills with our family!

Property was as expected. It was off the beaten path, but within an hour drive of everything we did each day, just plan ahead so you don't have to run back and forth throughout the day. Kitchen had everything needed, extra nice to have ice made for us upon arrival. The beds were comfortable. We didn't use the Murphy or couch bed. The driveway is VERY steep, but a beautiful area. Washing and fully drying all the towels was inconvenient as we would have liked to use the bathroom within an hour of leaving and had no towels, maybe a hand towel could remain in each bathroom?

Nice place, Very peaceful and Pine trees secluded. Other houses around but not real close, all in all very private. Home was very clean with plenty of necessities. About 3 miles off of Hwy 385 on a good gravel road. (Not an issue for us) Just minutes north of Hill City and close to Sheridan Lake. Excellent hiking trails there with great views around the lake. Great time was had by all.

Nice property and VRBO. We had 6 staying there comfortably. The kitchen is small but did have variety of essentials for prepping/cooking meals. Outside hydrant has a split pipe so does not work. We had no cell service. Roads getting there are switchback and steep. We had long trailers with all our ATV/UTVS so it was a little challenging. Would not like it if it was muddy or was raining. There was an area to be able to park the trailers and is specific with signs for that VRBO address but not at the site itself. The driveway is STEEP so be prepared. Getting to trails was easy enough. Some pretty views and very peaceful. Overall a good stay.

I live in the country so this was a great location and what im used to. The driveway is very steep like others have said, but i was able to make it just fine in 2 wheel drive in a suburban. My father in law made it with his Monte Carlo. The wifi internet was inconsistent and we weren't able to connect all of our devices. Im a Tech person, but i didnt have any time during our stay to figure out why as we had a busy itinerary and barely spent any time at the cabin. We loved the fact that the kitchen is well stocked with plates, cups, silverware, and even spices needed to prepare meals. The A/C works great and we all stayed very cool in June. Beds were very comfortable. The kitchen and main common area is on the 2nd floor along with 2 bedrooms and a bathroom. The Murphy bed, hide-a-bed sofa, 1 bedroom, and other bathroom are on the lower level. Lower level common area TV only has dvd player and dvd player with no cable or streaming capability. The TV upstairs has an Amazon fire stick as the only way to receive service. Overall we had a great time and enjoyed the peace and quiet of our cabin stay.

The home was very nice, everything was clean and worked. The description was accurate except I was expecting the kitchen to be on the main floor not upstairs, but that was not a problem. The view from the deck was excellent. No need to contact the property manager at all, definitely enjoyed the stay, would do it again.
