Guest Reviews
- Cary (10/5): -
- Michelle (10/5): Perfectly relaxing - Peaceful and beautiful
- Kathy (10/5): -
- Sean (2/5): - The pictures of the "cabin" we booked was not what we ended up getting...come to find out when I brought my concerns up with the owner the next morning, he said tthey have 2 cabins under the same name & they can only post pictures of one on rheir website. They chose to post the nicer & bigger one on the website, because ours had a bathroom (toilet & shower) that was smaller than a handicap bathroom stall at Walmart! So if you are wanting to rent one of their "cabins" (which all they are are hotel rooms with logs on the outside) please call and ask to see pictures of them before you reserve!! Also, please be aware you are right off the highway & it is loud at all hours. (The buildings were built in the 1940's, so not very sound proof lol) Also, we left to get breakfast before checking out on Saturday, came back to fiinish getting ready & we found the cleaning lady in our room..they said if your vehicle is gone they assume you have checked out, so they start cleaning.😩 Really disappointed with our whole experience & even with the response from management when I told them everything before we left. Just want everyone to be aware before booking here.
- Teresa (8/5): - we had a great time riding sxs in the Hills
- Michael (10/5): - Nice place to stay. Nice cabins, close to Lead and Deadwood.
- Patty (10/5): -
- Twila (10/5): A treasure in the Black Hills - This little motel is fabulous! It's so clean and the hosts are very friendly. The bed was comfortable and all amenities provided. There's a beautiful little creek behind the motel and cozy gliding rockers to sit and enjoy the sounds of the babbling brook going by. I wish I could have stayed longer and I will definitely be back.
- Dean (10/5): -
- Rachelle (10/5): - Immaculate property - it is very well kept up! The location was very convenient for us. Would definitely stay here agin in the future!
- Olivier (9/5): -
- Terry (10/5): - We loved it all it's the nicest place we have ever been to We didn't get to stay longer
- frank (10/5): Will be back again next year - Excellent location and property well kept. Staff excellent Everything was perfect
- Joan (7/5): Super kitchen and very relaxing in the back of the property. - The area behind the rooms on the creek was very nice and relaxing. They have a beautiful garden back there with tables and hammocks. We ate dinner by the creek and met some nice people. The road noise is a problem. The road is VERY BUSY with ATVs and motorcycles.
- Davina (8/5): - The ad shows a bar but there was not one.
- Donald (10/5): - Beautiful
- Gustavo (10/5): Great, wonderful - The surrounding is beautiful, the mountains, the creek, the cabin was perfect for the rwo of us. The staff was great.
- Jack (10/5): - Place was great. Area was really pretty.
- Jessica (10/5): - Fun place to stay while visiting the area. Loved the large kitchen and back patio of our cabin.
- Anita (10/5): Exceptional - The closest to the stream. The available gliders and sitting area s at the stream. The pavilion was wonderful. It had supplies games tables to enjoy our stay.
- Dan (9/5): Superb -
- ROBERT (10/5): - The grounds were beautiful!! Very affordable, staff were very accomodating for early check in due to wedding pictures. Left an item in the room after check out and was immediately notified!!
- Rebecca (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ronnie (8/5): Very good -
- Wehan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Christine (10/5): - Beautiful property , friendly helpful staff. Will definitely return & reccomend to everyone
- Terri (9/5): Great stay in the Black Hills! - Beautiful property with great cabins and centrally located. Ours had a kitchenette which had everything you needed. The beds and pillows were very comfortable and the place was clean. The staff was friendly and helpful. The property is right off of a busy road, so there was noise from loud trucks and atvs. However the heater helped disguise some of the noise.
- Matthew (10/5): Warm and comfortable on a cold night - It was -6 below zero outside and even my truck was having trouble staying warm. I opened the door to the room and it was a beautiful 70 degrees. Clean, spacious and a perfect resting spot after a long day. Will definitely be staying again.
- Geoffrey (10/5): Exceptional -
- Shear (9/5): Superb - Friendly staff. Great parking. Nice and clean. Heater didn't work. But it wasn't a big deal. Kinda close to the HWY, so expect some road noise.
- Kelly (8/5): Very good -
- Connie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Megan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Roger (10/5): Road tripping - Just what I wanted a cabin in the woods, it was perfect.
- Cheryl (10/5): Exceptional - Quiet! It was far enough away from Sturgis that we had a place to relax! Nothing
- Gleich (10/5): It’s a nice place to stay plenty of room to park a pickup with a trailer - Location was great The prices could be little lower and offer sr.citizens discount
- Clark (5/5): Wouldn't stay there again. - The "back yard" was really nice and peaceful. The outside of the building was nice. They had a nice place to grill and play games. Room was very small and crowded. They kept cutting the wall AC off. They said it was so the AC wouldn't freeze up. We were there for 3 days with it running on high day & night without it freezing up before they turned it off. The maid service was odd. They didn't come at all until the 4th day. Then came 2 days in a row. First time they left towels for 1 person the next day they changed out those same towels again and left towels for 2 people. So 4 days with same towels for 2, then 1 day using same towels for 1. Very inconsistent maid service says to me they just wanted to enter our room.
- Dennis (1/5): Pretty poor - Nothing Location, internet did not work, time limit on TV TV kept defaulting to unwanted station. Noisy...not resort name misleading.
- Jon (9/5): Superb -
- Daryl (7/5): Very good - Location
- David (10/5): Nice - Excellent
- Matthew (5/5): Felt unwelcomed at this establishment. - The property was on and surrounded by beautiful environment. The person who checked me in gave a rude remark and noticeably changed in attitude when I informed him I was traveling with my service dog.
- Alan (10/5): - Clean, quiet
- Clark (10/5): - Please area
- Junan (10/5): - Very nice and quiet. Love the creek in back with swings and chairs. Nice firepit and pavilion for BBQing. Close enough to Deadwood and surrounding areas without the crowds. We are planning our next visit already!
- Allan (10/5): Nice place! - The room was nice. Just small. But in good shape! Would stay there again!
- Valerie (10/5): ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL!! - We had an absolutely wonderful stay! Very clean rooms, wonderful staff, absolutely love the grounds and the fire pit, and the little lounge area. Stayed for three days did some side-by-side and feel absolutely refreshed. Cannot wait to go back! Highly highly recommend! We found our new go to place!
- Kelly (8/5): Very good -
- Thad (8/5): Very good -
- Melanie (10/5): - Beautiful property along a stream. Great staff that was prompt to respond to any issues we had, which was only one minor problem with the heater. Very helpful in providing us with ideas on must see attractions and best driving routes. Highly recommend this resort.
- Betsy (10/5): We would stay here again. - The property was clean and the staff was friendly and welcoming.
- Natasha (10/5): - It was very cozy with a nice comfortable environment. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. Very clean. The creek behind the cabins/rooms was an added bonus while adding a relaxing, serenity to the stay. Highly recommend.

- Eric (9/5): Superb -
- Goss (10/5): Exceptional - The cabin was very neat and clean with a kitchen. The only thing was the TV not working and the owner had to keep rebooting for service. The property sets right on a main roadway so it was very noisey and had a hard time getting to sleep from all the traffic.

Everything was so clean , bed extremely comfortable, and just felt like home .

- Matthew (10/5): - Love that there was a creek running behind the cabins and the pavilion is amazing!
- Jones (10/5): Uneven.. but still a great place to stay. - Beautiful place, great people. The only thing I could find slightly annoying, was the cabin we were in, was uneven. It was slanted towards the front door.
