My family had an amazing time at the cozy cabin in the hills! Location was great, close to all the attractions in the black hills but out of town and in a quiet area. We would all wake up and look for the wildlife that would walk through the backyard and just enjoy the fresh air and cool mornings!!! The hosts were great and answered all our questions in a timely manor. We are definitely planning on going back to the cozy cabin

Best Stay in our History of VRBO

Beautiful location with well maintained property. It was exceptionally well cleaned and stocked. The absolute best hosts we've ever had. Mike and Dulce went above and beyond to ensure we had a great experience (pre frozen beer mugs, fresh eggs, ground coffee). The forethought they put into their guests visits is truly amazing.
