This is actually Firehouse Brewing Company’s new location in Hill City. It is outstanding in design and service, I highly recommends standing at the rectangle bar for educational service.
A great place to view the Black Hills

Cabins are sufficient. Safety updates need to be made. The stairs to the cabins are uneven and have no hand railings. The price seems a bit high for the condition of the cabins. Guests have to carry out their trash.

Finding a place for dinner was bit of a challenge. When we finally found a place, The Hubcap Diner, it was only open on the weekend. We did eat there 2 evenings in a row because it was awesome. Food and service were both fantastic. Loved it.
