Our third time at Laramie Bluffs!

We were excited to return. The last stay was 8 years ago. This was our third time staying in this perfect, peaceful home. The location is perfect-very close to Custer state park, Crazy Horse memorial, and Jewel cave. We love the kitchen set up and the outdoor dining space. It’s so quiet and relaxing here. Linda and Gary are incredibly kind and there to give good information. We will return again as we really enjoyed our visit!

Nicely appointed, cutely decorated, serene setting, up a dirt road 3 miles from town. So peaceful. Beds including the sofa bed, were comfy. Bathroom needed more of a deep cleaning, but not bad. Nice TV with streaming sx. Window AC did the trick in the bedroom. Everything one needs to cook. Loved climbing around the rocks in the backyard. Picnic & fire pit area included! Will stay again.

Cozy place close enough yet far enough away.

Gary and Linda were gracious hosts and the cottage was perfect. The only issue we had was we did not realize it was above a garage. It did not cause us any major issues but stairs can sometimes be a problem.

The perfect spot for our fall getaway!!

We had a wonderful and relaxing time at this property. It was our second visit here as we had stayed here several years ago. We had lots of space for the two of us, comfortable beds and a kitchen to bring or make meals at the rental unit. It was also so close to all of the attractions we wanted to visit. The Laramie Bluffs Mountain Getaway was perfect for our fall “leaf peeping” getaway! Thank you Gary & Linda Fellows!!

Perfect Home Base

This property was so easy to get to and we found it perfect for our home base while we explored a portion of the Black Hills. Our goals were high to make it to all portions of the Hills but there was just too much located close to this property! I had to work a portion of the time and the internet was very sufficient and while cell service can be spotty in The Hills, our Verizon phones worked perfectly well. The space was roomy and very comfortable, yes, the bed was too. We will definately stay again and thanks for hosting us!
