We had a wonderful stay! We and another couple came to enjoy the sights of the Black Hills. The hot tub was definitely a hit! Beds were comfortable, plenty of linens, great view, and a scenic and quick drive to Lead/Deadwood. Directions were clear and the check in and out processes were very simple. We would highly recommend this quaint cabin in the hills!

5 day stay

Great location and nice cabin. We spent the majority of our 5 day stay fishing, hiking, atv'ing, and touring Deadwood and Lead. The cabin was comfortable for the 6 of us and we had no issues.

First family vacation

We absolutely loved the peace and quiet at this quaint little cabin. It was the perfect spot for the kids to explore and burn off energy, while also giving us lots of opportunities for family bonding. We enjoyed 4 beautiful evenings around the fire with out any bugs bothering us.The swing on the porch was a family favorite and the beds are amazing. I would highly recommend this cabin to anyone who is wanting a peaceful stay on Terry Peak.

Amazing cabin

Loved our stay, cabin was great and our family of adults and grandchild loved it! Wi-Fi isn’t the greatest in the mountains but did not affect our stay at all. Just an amazing cabin and wonderful property managers.
