Great Multi-Family Getaway

We had 6 adults and two kids during our stay and could have slept more and still had plenty of space. The sleeping arrangements work well for multiple families to have privacy and enough private sleeping and restroom space. There were two beds/1 bath upstairs, 1 bed/2 bath main floor, and 2 beds/2 baths downstairs so it allowed for nice separation so we didn’t have to worry about waking people up if you wake up early or go to bed early. Our favorite part, the basement by far! The comfort of the couches and the entertainment things available made it for a memorable time! Very clean and the directions to get there are very clear!

Our favorite cabin in this Black Hills!

We've been staying at Black Diamond every year for the last 10 years. It's a wonderful cabin with plenty of accomodations, a spacious kitchen, 5 bedrooms and a hottub. It had a huge wrap around deck overlooking Spearfish Canyon. I look forward to coming back every year and highly recommend it to anyone looking for lodging in the Terry Peak area.

Perfect for Families

We had an amazing time at this lodge! For our first extended family vacation-this lodge was perfect to give everyone enough space to relax and enjoy the Black Hills. Recommend AWD or a vehicle that can handle terrain to get up the driveway.

Great Cabin - Highly Recommend

Our family of 15 were thrilled with this cabin. Great view from the deck! Truly an Executive Cabin with all necessary amenities - kitchen appliances, dishes, cookware, paper products, etc. There is a grocery store in deadwood where we purchased food as our drive from home was 8+ hours. The hot tub was very nice and worked perfectly. Having 2 laundry facilities was perfect. Games for the young children to play plus the upper deck was large enough to ride their scooters. 2 dishwashers was also a big help as dirty dishes galore with meals for our large family. The WiFi is a bit slow but I did contact the main office notifying them. The grandchildren enjoyed seeing the deer and the baby fawn in the front area.

We walked into the house to find an unmade bed, used from prior guest, and other less than clean ...

There wasn’t much to love. Perhaps the layout.

Black Diamond Cabin

Great Cabin, great location, great view. Just a bit on the not so clean side. There were messy floors, especially in the bathrooms, we did a load of sheets as one of the beds didn't look clean, hot tub had a bunch of hard scale type material in it although one couple used it still. Everything would have been perfect if it would have been cleaner. Housekeepers were there when we arrived. We were not checking in early either, we were late getting to the cabin and the cleaners were still onsite. Not complaining a bit, we enjoyed ourselves very much. we just wish it would have been properly cleaned before we arrived.

Black Diamond Lodge

We enjoyed the beautiful lodge in an idyllic setting everything was perfect. Unfortunately we had to suffer the smell of sewage from the neighbouring lodge whose septic tank appeared to be overflowing on a regular basis during the week
