Rustic Rock Haven - Horses Welcome

10/10 Excellent

"We LOVED our time in this cabin. Deb and Dave are lovely hosts. They have adorable pugs that came to visit every morning, as well as puppies and kittens! What's not to love about that!? The location is off the beaten path and so peaceful and beautiful with cattle out front, a friendly steer we nicknamed Doug, a 2 mile hiking path, and a field filled with Elk the night we arrived! The air conditioner is a box unit in the window over the sink, but it kept the cabin cool so long as we left it on when we left for the day. Super great location. Just a 15-20 minute drive to Sylvan Lake with easy access to 16A which gets you to Iron Mountain Road, as well as the Wildlife Loop. We really loved our stay and will miss that spot of heaven."

The Haven-Rustic Secluded Cabin

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect location for access to all things Black Hills. The house was great, everything we expected. Really nice hot tub to unwind after long days of excursions. Would absolutely stay again!"
