Perfect Location For your Black Hills Vacation

DanielleRating, 5 stars1 week ago

We had a fantastic time during our 7-night stay. The Airbnb was extremely comfortable and beautifully decorated. We loved the mattresses on the beds and the recliner chairs in the living room. The space was very spacious, featuring separate bedrooms. I was delighted with the clean and beautiful interior. The location was really peaceful and conveniently close to supermarkets for groceries. It was a great base for exploring the sights. We packed so much into our vacation, including visits to Mount Rushmore and both Jewel and Wind Caves (make sure to get reservations!). We also hiked in the Badlands, Spearfish Canyon, and Custer State Park. Our list of activities is extensive!

This was a nice place to stay for our group of 17, Trystin was friendly and responsive, we did end up finding that we could have used more towels for our big group, so may be good to bring extras if you also have a big group. The kids loved the hot tub and we had a bonfire 2 of the nights, lovely - lovely setting with views of water, trees, and the cathedral spires, gorgeous patio with table, it was a great home base for our days exploring the Black Hills. Thanks so much for the stay!!
