    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A great place for all ages, the weather ended being kinda windy so we appreciated the room and many activities the house has to offer. We had aged 2 months to 86 years and it worked well for everyone. Close to the ski hill, trails and not far from Lead and Deadwood.

    My family has booked property’s of Budi Kusser for over 8 years and this time around communication was awful. 3 beds during our stay didn’t have legs on them to prop them up correctly to lay on them. Dead flies in beds/on bedding. We were very disappointed after spending so much money on our rental.

    It was a very nice property, but it’s apparent a cleaner doesn’t come prior to arrival because they’re were several dead bugs.

    We take an annual ski trip with 6 families and the design of this home did not miss any details for hosting gatherings like ours. Each family had a suite with connected bathroom as their home base and the kids (girls and boys) each had their designated areas with the bunkroom and the murphy beds game room. All of the activities available within the home were great for kids! The 6 car garage was amazing for getting everybody ready in the morning for skiing and drying out ski gear at the end of the day. The kitchen is AMAZING for large group and is very well stocked. Hosts were timely in their responses. The home was as described. We will definitely come back again.

    Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This place is amazing! There were 24 of us there ranging in age from 8 months to 75 years old and plenty of space to spread out as well as opportunities to have private time in the 6 master suites! The overall feel of the place although huge is cozy and welcoming. The kitchen amenities, the hot tub, the fireplaces..all added to the fun. Our suggestion would be to label the kitchen cupboards so that a lot of time isn't wasted hunting for things! Also..two new coffee pots!:) All in all..a wonderful place

    There were 17 adults and an 18th month old on our family vacation to Mount Rushmore, Badlands, Crazy-horse, Keystone, Deadwood, Rapid City, Hill City and many more places. This home is very well stocked with dishes, pots pans, crock pots, linens. There are 2 drip coffee pots, no Keurig. We had 18 but the place could sleep 40. The pictures are good but it is much prettier to see in person. Would highly recommend this place!!!
