Room decor had pleasant rustic decor. Loved the tree lined hills outside the front and back windows and the spacious wrap around front porch. The owners were quick to respond with a personal phone call. Our stay was short, but sweet!

It was beautiful. It was well taken care of. The host and housekeeper were both lovely people. Stay here if you get the chance. The quality and comfort are unmatched for the price. My now fiancé says, “10/10 would recommend”

A good location if you are wanting to play tourist. Can be a bit noisy because of the road with the windows open. Bed was comfy. Shower was very tiny.

Room was very small. There was no place to seat to eat. Free breakfast consisted of coffee and donuts. No ice and if you wanted ice you had to buy it. Would not recommend this place.

Cutest little place tucked right in the middle of all the must do things. Very clean and friendly. Minutes away from all the local attractions including Mt. Rushmore. Very inviting, relaxing atmosphere. We can’t wait to be back!
