Loved both cabins!!

As mentioned in our review of the Ponderosa, these cabins are amazing! We rented both due to the size of our group. All ages, 2-74 loved staying here! The kitchen has everything you need. There are also books, movies, toys, games, puzzles, etc. Every detail was thought of. Would 100% recommend even if it’s just for solitude you’re seeking! The location is fabulous!

Such a great place!

This was the perfect home to stay in for a quick reunion with family. Everything was very clean and there were cute helpful notes everywhere to help answer any questions we may have. We had a lot of bird visitors as well as a few deer. There is a long road that takes around 15 minutes to get you to the cabin, and you won't have great signal on the way. But that is what helped us feel secluded in nature and truly "disconnected" from our worries. Thank you for giving us a chance to make some memories here!

Perfect home away from home!

We just spent 4 days at Aspen cabin. I have to admit hat this house was the most equipped house we ever stayed. You don’t have to bring anything with you! Hot tub was a big hit for the evening relaxation. Kids loved when the cows where visiting each morning and wild turkeys too. We were hiking around but also it was pretty close to everything like Mt Rushmore, Crazy horse etc. We had really good time ! Thank you Donna for sharing your beautiful cabin!

Comfortable house in the Black Hills

I stayed here in summer of '21 with my family, children ages 7-9. The house was well described in the listing. There was plenty of room for the 5 of us. The setting was great, and I really enjoyed the hot tub. Only downside is that there are several miles of gravel roads to reach the house.

Loved it!

This was such a beautiful property and everything we could have wanted. We loved that it was so large and the living area had lots of room for us all to sit comfortably, but enough room to have privacy as well. Beautiful scenery, very remote and relaxing, yet just a short drive to town for groceries, restaurants, etc.... Thanks for an amazing stay with lots of great memories made!

This is a spacious and very well-appointed cabin.

The location is wonderful, a very private oasis in a beautiful setting of pines and aspen. We will definitely come back if we can.

A haven for a much needed getaway

This was an extremely well-stocked, warm and freindly vacation rental for our family. These owners thought of everything! from the games, videos, toiletries, towels to the last utensil, we had everything we needed to feel comfortable and at home in this lovely place. We even got to enjoy hiking the fire road trails nearby and see some beautiful trails and star-studded night time skies. We wished we could have brought our horses to ride up there! Thank you Ray and Donna for a most memorable, wonderful stay!

Very clean and had everything we needed. Very peaceful location. We watched the deer every morning. Very quiet out there and beautiful scenery. Great location between Custer and Hill City but back off the highway a few miles for some quiet. You can see Crazy Horse before you get to the highway. Property just exactly as described. Thank you for a great place to stay!!

Great quiet escape!

This was a great house to host our extended family for a long weekend. The hot tub was a hit with everyone. Ray and Donna were very accommodating and appreciate the discussion and wood chips to accommodate smores even during a burn ban! The grill worked great, so no rules were broken!! The drive was a little long from the highway, but we used the kitchen to cook and hung out with little trips in and out of town. It was quiet and secluded. It was great! We would definitely stay again.
