    My friends and I absolutely loved staying at Mike's cabin! It had more than enough space for all 8 of us. We enjoyed playing games and watching movies by the fireplace, cooking meals together in the kitchenette area, and sitting outside in the hot tub under the stars while it snowed. Honestly one of my favorite Black Hills trips and this cabin was my favorite part!

    We had a wonderful stay at Deer Meadow Lodge! The cabin was very clean, cozy, and comfortable. It fit our family of six perfectly and had plenty of space for everyone. We especially loved the outdoor décor throughout the house—it really added to the cozy Black Hills feel. The setting was beautiful and peaceful, and it was a great place to relax after a day of exploring. The host made everything easy and welcoming. We would definitely stay here again!

    This cabin was great! It was a perfect fit for our family of all ages. Kitchen arrangement made it easy to have additional guests over for games and food. The bedrooms were very comfortable and the “loft room”was perfect to have a young child and a toddler sleep close by. The hot tub was a nice amenity for all! It was an overall great place to spend the holidays.

The lodge exceeded our expectations and made our trip unforgettable. It was cozy and inviting, complete with a gorgeous fireplace, abundant wildlife, and a charming, peaceful setting.If you’re looking for great food, we highly recommend the Sugar Shack—delicious meals and even more amazing people!

    Deer Meadow Lodge was perfect. It’s nestled in the Black Hills with plenty of space inside and out. The furniture and decor was everything I had hoped for in a rustic cabin. We are from a large city so getting out in nature was such a joy for our family. Mr. Dressler was very attentive. He provided detailed driving instructions, including a map. He checked in to make sure our stay was what we expected. We would definitely book here again.

    This is an amazing place to stay! The cabin is just like you see in the pictures with wonderful decor which gives it a warm charming feeling. The deer surround the property in the morning and the evening. While sitting eating breakfast you are able to watch the deer right outside the window. Sit on porch in evening and the deer walk right into the yard. The only noises you hear are birds chirping and the hot tub if used. This place is kind of centered between Badlands, Devils Rock, and Mount Rushmore. A fantastic scenic drive to all places. If you are wanting a secluded quite peaceful place to rest and relax…this is the place to book! We will be back again! Thank you

    We thoroughly enjoyed our week at Deer Meadow! The home had everything a family would need to have an outstanding and memorable time. We also were close to South Dakota special areas including Deadwood, Lead, Spearfish Canyon, Custer Park, Rapid City. We enjoyed it all! We rode horses at Andy's in Lead; We enjoyed wine at Belle Jolie vineyard in Sturgis, Filet mignon at Alpine Inn in Hill City and so much more! We had daily visits from deer - and we had a snow day. The beautiful fireplace was put to good use!

    Great location and place to stay for atv trail riding. Hot tub was nice but difficult to get in and out of. Maybe just rotating the tub so the steps go in at a better place. There was no place to step in that was flat so I had to sit on the ledge then lower yourself in. The seating area and kitchen was great for groups. The whole place could use a deep cleaning ( cob webs and dust on pictures and fixtures) but overall cleanliness was good. Very nice place with lots of interesting details to explore. Would stay again!

It was exactly what I needed for the end of our vacation. Pleasantly located between all the stuff we wanted to do. Absolutely serene. I loved how quiet it was, I could sit out on the patio for hours. The house had lots of extra pillows for comfort and space to lounge, the hot tub was wonderful, I just had an absolutely amazing time. I would definitely stay here again.
