Clean, comfortable, convenient

The cabin was super clean and comfortable, in a very pretty location that's convenient to a lot of Black Hills day trips. We stayed in the off-season, so not much going on, but I imagine the taproom and community bonfire during high season would be great. Would definitely stay again and recommend to others.

A truly hidden gem in the Black hills.

The owners Justin and Ashley are amazing!!! Made us feel like family. The room was clean and comfortable. We had a wonderful relaxing stay in Wildcat cottage! The waffles and coffee for breakfast were great. Had lots of good conversations with the owners Justin and Ashley and some of the other guests in the Taproom.

Aspen Cabin was wonderful!

Great place to stay! Loved the taphouse on site. They offered free waffles and coffee in the morning. Had a bonfire on every night for anyone to join. Quiet and serene surroundings. Roomy cabins and so comforable! I was so pleasantly surprised. Will stay again!

This is a cozy little place. It is nice but be aware the cabins are small. Has a very neat little tap room that is quite fun. The owners are very sweet and welcoming. Very easy access to Mt Rushmore and Crazy Horse.

We stayed in Aspen cottage for a week. The cottage was perfect for our needs. The location is perfect for all the activities in the Black Hill area. The property was very well maintained and clean. The owners provide a fun atmosphere with nightly bon fires, grilling area and tap room for gathering and conversations. We will be recommending to everyone and hope to return some day.

I loved my stay here! Not only was my room clean and comfy, but the staff is what really made this an A+ stay. Donnie and Jodie specifically were so awesome and fun to hang out with after my long days of adventuring! I also made friends with some of the other travelers so waking up in the morning for waffles and hanging around the fire before bed with everyone was so special. Location was great as well!
