Very nice having a little self-contained cottage. Owner came out to make sure I got in okay (late arrival). Only thing that's a potential stumbling block is low availability of bedside power, due to construction age, which I was easily able to deal with. HIGHLY recommended.

Motel was dated. Bathroom was extremely small. Queen size bed was against the wall. Heating system was inadequate. Had a kitchen. Sitting room and seperate bed room. All in all it was OK for the price.

We really enjoyed this quirky little place in the Black Hills. I loved the two separate rooms in the choice with two queen beds. Staff are helpful and pleasant and everything nicely met expectations.

This is a unique property with individual bungalows. Very cute and in good repair. The beds are comfy, the room clean. They have their quirks. The floor in ours was tilted a bit, so you walked quickly to the tiny bathroom. Took the hot water a few minutes to arrive and the air conditioner didn't do much to cool the room. We just opened the windows and let the evening breeze in. But a great value with lots of character.

This experience was something I was looking for. I wanted to know what it would be like to lodge in an environment that my late parents would have experienced in the late 1940s & early 1950s. This is the real deal. Very well maintained without losing the rustic feel. Staff Excellent. Please Note: interested travelers - spend a little more on a larger cabin area. You will not regret it. This place is adorable.
