Our room was clean, hot tub was nice. Location was very convenient! Beautiful area to hike in! Love the Blackhills. This was not a cabin but a motel room- we were supposed to have a queen bed but it was a double. We had a little kitchen but did not look like the pictures on Expedia. Very expensive for a motel room, but it was the 4th of July.

Everything was clean. Staff was very friendly. Wish they serve breakfast earlier than 7 am. We had to travel at least 30 minutes to any of the events. Also the room could use a kuerig instead of a coffee pot. Overall the stay was good.

Great property! We loved the private cabin (#209). Everything was very clean. Also - we greatly appreciated the fact that they allowed us to shorten our stay by 2 days due to unforeseen circumstances that kept us in our previous destination for 2 extra days. They didn’t have to be flexible, but they were and they refunded us 2 nights. In all honesty, we wish we could’ve stayed the 4 nights we originally planned on staying. Loved this property!
