The Hermits' Cabin worked very well for us. The interior is cozy and up-to-date. The property is lovely -- up just high enough in the hills to have a true mountain feel and view. We appreciated the outdoor fire pit, complete with split wood and fire starters.Dawn and Chad were very helpful when we had a few questions. I recommend this property to anyone visiting the area.

We stayed four nights and loved this cabin! Great location—close to Rapid City, Spearfish, and Custer State Park, yet very private and peaceful. The cabin was clean, the kitchen had everything we needed, and the bed was super comfortable. We looked forward to seeing the two long-haired cows on the drive in and out every day! We’d definitely stay here again!

We enjoyed our time at the cabin! Beautiful views, enough basics in the kitchen to cook the meals we needed, and it sits right next to some UTV trails so we were able to drive right from the property onto the trails. Very close to other trails. If you plan to eat out be prepared to drive to restaurants (30 minutes for most). Host was easy and friendly to communicate with. The only thing we would suggest is for the house to have a deep clean. Bed was very comfy and sheets were very clean.

Beautiful Property!

My stay at this cabin was absolutely perfect! The host was incredibly communicative, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. The cabin itself is well-maintained, spotlessly clean, and thoughtfully equipped with everything you’d need for a secluded, romantic getaway. Nestled on 40 acres that back up to the stunning Black Hills National Forest, the location offers breathtaking views and unparalleled privacy. Whether you’re looking to relax or explore, this cabin is an ideal retreat. I can’t recommend it enough!

Although there were several homes within a mile, Hermits Cabin was surrounded by forest...wonderfully remote. Located towards the north end of the Black Hills, we had Rapid City, Sturgis, Deadwood, Sprearfish Canyon, Hill City, Sylvan Lake/The Needles, Custer State Park and Mount Rushmore all within15-60 minutes. We had a wonderful time. The cabin has been updated with flooring, appliances, and many amenities. The A/C worked wonderfully and we needed it as it was unseasonally warm. The garage extension was is a nice useful addition, especially if you have more than two guests. Thank you very much.

Overall Enjoyable Stay

This location is definitely remote! We enjoyed our stay and especially enjoyed the deer that came to visit each day. We weren't there a lot, so we didn't use many of the amenities but it's well-stocked and a nice place to stay.

Perfect spot in the Black Hills

Everything was great - the house was nicely decorated, remarkably clean, and in a beautiful private spot. The bed was big and comfy, and my son was comfortable sleeping on the couch. The house backs to woods and we enjoyed walking the trails, fires in the fire pit at night, and watching the stars. It was a great central location to Custer National Park, Badlands, Mt Rushmore, Devil's Tower, Spearfish Canyon, etc. We didn't want to leave!

Nothing short of a peaceful getaway!

The property is so beautiful! The drive into the property was neat too! The wildlife was a nice view each morning and sometimes the afternoon. We did not get to use the firepit, due to no fault of the hosts, weather wasn't in our favor. However, the host was nothing short of amazing. Even left us a little surprise being a half dozen of farm fresh eggs! 😍 The communication with the host was a breeze with timely responses and even a heads up one of the days informing of a vehicle to be coming into the 40 acres for our own ease of mind! Hundreds of trails all around! I would have no problem booking again when in the area!

Looking for peaceful.. this is it!

Booked the cabin for the Surgis Rally. When booking I booked for 3 guests intead of 4. Dawn was always available for questions and responded quickly. I later added an additional guest. She was accomadating. We arrived to a loaf of her fresh sour dough bread. Which was delicious. The cabin itself was clean and had plenty of space inside. Furnished with everything you will need. Just bring food & tolietries. Very peaceful and private. There were a family of deer that roamed around outside. I will definitely book again on my next trip to South Dakota.

Great location and super peaceful

Loved the property and peace and quiet, just what we needed for our week in South Dakota. We loved the area with so much to do and see, amazing weather, and great accommodations. The only issue with the property is that the water pressure is a bit on the weak side, but otherwise just an absolutely perfect week! The property manager was very communicative and helpful, and the place had everything we needed for our stay including lots of k-cups for coffee!!
