This property was perfect for our stay. Close to everything we needed.
Very fun to watch the 1880 train go by and wave to the passengers.
100% recommend.
House & location was beautiful. Enjoyed our stay. Would love to know more history of the place as many who wrote in the guest book called it a cabin but its very much like a house. Would recommend attention to kitchen as some cupboard knobs are missing but overall the home is beautiful.
This house is close to Keystone while being away from crowds and noise. We loved being in the trees and the quiet. The house provides a lot of space for a comfortable place to hang out between activities. We had 4 adults, but it would also be great for families.
Location is amazing and very quiet. The large yard gives plenty of parking and space for kids. The house was larger than we expected and was a great hub to travel to all the areas in the Black Hills. Def recommend!
The place was in a great location! Loved the privacy and we love coming to South Dakota during off season!It snowed one day and there were tons of deer, everywhere, every day. It was definitely cool to see them.While we weren't super fond of doing dishes by hand every day, we were aware of this during booking.The negatives we didn't know about were; the tv in the bedroom doesn't work. There are knobs missing on a lot of kitchen cabinets and there is no working ice maker. Lastly, I can confirm that there is a bible, religious magazines/books on the coffee table and side tables. (I cant upload photo's)I'd most likely stay there again if the issues were addressed.
We had a great stay. Great location for us. We had some issues with the lights in the living room not working and they had an electrician out within the hour. We had a total of 3 couples and it was perfect. I would stay here again.
Totally enjoyed our stay here. Beds were comfortable, kitchen was well stocked. Nice to have two main areas to watch TV. It was so close to Keystone and yet still very private. Did with they had a dishwasher. It's not much fun washing dishes on vacation but ...........
I love the location of the property and love that the train goes right by. This is the first property that we have rented that did not have any kind of shampoo, soap or anything in small sample bottles of anything in case you forgot something at home. We did not need them but thought it was a little different. Other than that, the stay was great.

This home is amazing! We couldn't have asked for more. The house is very clean, comfortable and a great centralized location to explore the Black Hills. The 1880 Train ran along the tracks across the street from the house (no it was not annoying and didn't run at night); and the house came with a babbling brook, deer, wild turkey and a foosball table đ What more could you ask for. Thank you.
The outlets in a couple of the room is loose. Non of the plugs would stay in and some would fall out 1/2 way. Exposing the plug. I m glad my 5 year old knows NOT to touch the exposed plug. There were brand new covers on the plugs but the outlets were old seems original to the house (1960s)
I was expecting a dishwasher instead of a locked 2nd fridge that we couldnât use. Who wants to do dishes on vacation.? There wasnât any ice in the ice maker either. nor did it make ice.
None of the furniture was comfortable. We all sunk into the middle of the bed. Itâs hard on my 80 year old parents back. Just feel like the owner brought over furniture they used and put in in a rental house.
The property wasn't completely cleaned when we arrived. The bathroom counter and mirror had tooth paste spit and the shower had black mold around the bottom. The towers were crunch and hard, so bring your own towels.
we stayed during the off season, so it was quite, but during the peak season, the train that goes from keystone to hill city runs directly out in the front yard, so beware.
Just felt like we were deceived from the pictures of the condition of the property.
Also there is bunch of religious literature material left all over the front entry table.
we attempted to contact the rental management have yet to hear back.
This was a great property to escape the hustle and bustle of Keystone and still have access to shopping and restaurants. The house was spacious and clean and was a perfect fit for our family of 6.
Comfortable beds, clean, washer and dryer available! A+ Excellent service! We almost couldnât make the trip due to medical reasons! The lady was so understanding about our situation, we really appreciated her kindness!
The house was nice and roomy. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well supplied, except we couldn't find enough dish towels since there was no dishwasher. The highlight in the house for us was the soccer table. But the real highlight was being able to visit the many locations surrounding the house. We did Mt. Rushmore and the lighting ceremony, the Buffalo Round-up, Wind Cave tour, Needles Highway, Badlands, Beggin' Burros, wildlife, and much more. It was a wonderful experience and a great place to call home, especially for 8 people. PS The train going by was really cool too. Next time we'll take the train to Hill City and back!!!
