Great home base for our family’s Black Hills adventures. Spacious, clean, well furnished. Highly recommend!

This property was perfect for my family of 6. Plenty of room for everyone. We were in town for a soccer tournament and the location was perfect. My kids loved the yard to play and we also enjoyed the outdoor seating areas and hot tub. The beds are very comfortable. We absolutely loved our stay and will definitely book again when we are back in the area. This was also the first time I’ve booked with Vacasa and customer service was 10/10.

Beautiful cabin roomy enough for our family of 6. The front of house is noisy interstate is right out front. Has a hot tub worked sporadically did report the issues so they should get fixed. We have stayed here twice and will happily again it is really a nice place and in a great location in tue Hills.

The location is convenient to downtown Sturgis and the highway. Very close to the highway the noise level is pretty high and that is the view. The rooms are spacious and the beds are comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked. Bring firewood with you as you will need it to help heat the place since there is no furnace only radient heaters. I also only saw small window units in the bedrooms for air conditioning on the hot summer days.
