The property was excellent! It is a newer duplex and everything was perfect. The owner thought of all your needs as far as in the kitchen and bathroom. She was also very responsive to any communication. You could even watch the prairie dogs from the front sitting area!!Annette

Great Stay

This is one of the best VRBOs we have stayed in. The place was clean, well-thought out, and had everything we needed. It is close to Custer and Keystone and an easy drive to the rest of the region. The Shorbs are great people and highly responsive. I highly recommend this VRBO. Don't forget to eat at Lintz Bros Pizza when in Hermosa!

A place to unwind.

We live close to a big city and just needed a place to decompress and enjoy a view with no buildings or distractions. We loved the place and feel like we need another week to explore the area.

Traveled to SD for the Bison Roundup at Custer State Park. This cute, clean duplex unit was perfect for us - close to the park. Very quiet, with easy access to the main road. SD is beautiful and we were able to explore it all from here.

This is the cleanest and most fully appointed VRBO we have stayed in. The front door worked as directed first time. Bridget has thought of everything, from extra hangers to laundry soap to an iron to cooking utensils to tea and coffee. Beds big and comfortable. Location is just off Hwy 79, but it was quiet at night. Silent ceiling fans keep air fresh. There are games for adults and kids. Communication with host was responsive and prompt. Access to TV and streaming was simple. In all, a 10 on a 10 scale.

Black Hills Trip

The place was perfect. Bridget couldn’t be more helpful. It was very modern and comfortable. Everything was labeled and easy to find. There wasn’t anything you could want. I loved how she had to go coffee cups for me to take in the morning! We were close to everything. A hidden gem in the hills. We loved Devil’s Bathtub, renting ATVs, Custer, Needles Highway, and so much more. Our family made some great memories here!

So fun!

Property was as pictured/described on the website and clean. Lots of details considered- I appreciated little things like labels on the cabinets making stuff easier to find. It was a great spot for us to explore the Badlands Park and Rushmore area. Loved the little coffee shop in Hermosa too. And- close to a dollar general really helped since we traveled with kids for last minute supplies. Rules, check-in/out, and communication were all smooth and reasonable. Recommend!

Fantastic property. The location is centrally located and perfect for going to Mount Rushmore, crazy horse, Custer State Park, hot Springs, Rapid City, and not too far from Badlands or Devils Tower. The owner is thoughtful and keeps this well appointed with a nicely stocked kitchen (tea, coffee, salt, pepper, and many other niceties like sandwich bags, wrap, foil), nice toiletries, and laundry supplies. She isn't stingy w/supplies. This property is new and no expense was spared. It's super quiet despite being a duplex, epoxied concrete floors with radiant heat, nicely decorated with nice furnishings. Been 6 feet tall, it was really nice to have a spacious shower with a high mounted showerhead. Owner was super kind and made this stay a great one!
