Spectacular setting, amenities, and centrally located to Mt. Rushmore and Custer State Park, and hiking. WiFi. Excellent cell service (Verizon & ATT). Private campfire and fireplace. Off-season discounts. No extra fees.

Loved and needed this peace.

The cabin was easily accessible yet provided a beautiful respite from our busy day. It was nestled in the trees and quiet. There was a porch, flowers, and a fire pit which we enjoyed.

What peaceful setting. We liked that it was tucked back off the highway.Todd and Cathy made it easy to commincate with. Very helpful with where to go for groceries. Not far from the cabin in Hill City is Cohert Brewery and deli. We highly recommend. Great way to end a long hiking day.Home brewed beer delicious food.The Yak Cabins are just the best!!!

Great check in and communication from the owners. The entire cabin was extremely clean and well stocked. I was impressed at the amenities that were provided. It was so quiet and peaceful - a great break from the crowds around the Black Hills and Rapid City. If there was one minor change, I would have to suggest to get a better bed in the master bedroom. The mattress was quality was quite poor and the bed was not sturdy at all. However, I wouldn't let that deter you from staying at this fantastic location. All of the other amenities were top notch!

Would highly recommend this sweet set of cabins. We loved our stay and all that we did. Communication. With the owner was amazing and we had zero issues. The only thing I would have to mention at all is that the window unit and fans provided made for ONE warm evening for this Texas girl who likes her air haha!! Once the temp moderated, the temp in the cabin was delightful! But just to note, could be warm inside on the hottest of days. This does not affect my rating at all!! Loved the stay.

We stayed for a week with our 2 tweens. Arrived after sundown, but it was easy to find on a well maintained road. You’re located close enough to their other cabins that you have privacy without feeling isolated. The cabin was very clean, and everything was in great condition. Kitchen has good cookware for easy meals. Fire ring, chairs, and grill for outdoor evenings. Satellite tv/internet for staying inside. Good cell coverage. No complaints and we would definitely stay here again.

Really enjoyed our 4 day stay at this wonderful cabin. The owners were very helpful. The cabin location is 2nd to none for its central location to visit the area’s attractions.

The location is perfect--short trips to many great sights. Cozy, welcoming cabin in a beautiful, out of the way nook. We stayed for 2 days and loved the ability to venture out to see the area but not be too far from 'home'.

I could write a book on all the positives of this property! It was just absolutely outstanding! It was perfect for a quick trip with family after meeting up with them in Denver. The attention to detail in how the cabin was built, the decorations, the furnishings, the trim. Just absolutely beautiful. I enjoyed the silence and the wildlife that came by. So much peace. If ever in South Dakota again I wouldn't even look at or consider another property and would just book at Yak Ridge. Thank you so much for making our little getaway that much more special. All four of us loved everything about the cabin.

Super cute cabin near Mt Rushmore/Keystone. Very neat and clean with lots of thoughtful amenities (toiletries/snacks). Only negative was there must be someone with a gun range on their property nearby and so it sounded like we were next to a military base all Saturday afternoon into late evening.

…with the cabin, the location, the attention to detail; I could go on and on. The hosts, Todd and Cathy, left us a welcome basket full of snacks, juice and goodies as well as a cute gift bag of toiletries along with a rubber duckie! We felt very pampered. Todd went above and beyond, texting us when he discovered we’d left out thermos behind and offered to mail it to us. We were just blown away by his kindness. What a treat to spend a fun-filled long weekend in an adorable cabin and encounter such great people.to boot. Highly recommend!!

We stayed in Cabin #3 at Yak Ridge and loved it! The cabin was very clean and there was a thoughtful welcome gift waiting in the fridge. It was quiet and peaceful, tucked in the side of the hill. Beautiful setting to enjoy our coffee in the morning. We appreciated how well the space was maximized in the cabin especially with two teenage boys. The kitchen was well stocked and we enjoyed grilling out in the evenings after exploring the area during the day. The cabins are centrally located to many activities in the area including Mt. Rushmore and Custer State Park. We highly recommend them to anyone visiting the area!

We enjoyed our stay at Yak Ridge Cabins! The cabin was spotless and stocked with everything that we needed. Todd and Cathy were a text away when I had a question or a need. Reading on the front porch was a nice way to relax after morning hikes and sightseeing adventures! Peaceful and quiet for sleeping.
