This was our second time at Rileys retreat. Our family loves the quite and remoteness of the cabin. If you have never visited the Black Hills, the drive into the property is a great introduction to the area. Julie was great in sending us the booking info- both email and text. Very little cell service at the property but the wifi worked well.
If you don’t mind the drive this is the place to stay! It was plenty of room for our family and the host was super responsive. Much appreciated and we had a great time in South Dakota.
we made a last minute decision to go to the Hills and we were thankful to find this house! The owners were great to communicate with and the kitchen was fully stocked and we were able to eat every breakfast and evening there. I will say that the only downside is that it is way off the beaten path haha! It was nice and quiet location but you are far from any town ammenities. My husband also said I needed to add that the upstairs bed was soooo incredibly hard. My kids never complained about their beds, but other than that, we enjoyed our stay and it suited us for what we needed.
The house was wonderful with beautiful views in every direction. All the family loved the seclusion. Julie was wonderful to work with and the process was so simple. We will definitely think about coming back!
What a beautiful rental! We had everything we needed (and then some) and the view in the backyard is absolutely amazing! This rental sleeps a lot but we each still felt like we had our own privacy with the many separate rooms. We would absolutely recommend this rental to anyone.
This was a great location for us. The host was very responsive and the cabin cute and clean. The location is well off any busy roads and was nice and quiet. Deer passed through the property every morning as we had coffee on the deck. I would not hesitate to return to the cabin. Thank you.
We came to the Black Hills for a weekend of fall trail riding in our side by side. We had 2 trailers and parking was great as well as getting the trailers in and out without too much trouble. The hot tub was a nice place to start the day and living areas accommodated our group and offered separate when needed. Would come back again, highly recommend as a fall destination!
The house is amazing with superb views. Couldn't have hoped for a better place to stay. Julie was a true pleasure during the process and gave great information. You would be hard pressed to find a better place or better operator. THANK YOU...our family had an amazing trip.
Riley's Retreat was a Treat for a group of friends.
College friends enjoyed our stay at the house. We enjoyed the hot tub and the deer and turkey we saw near the house. Very peaceful and the house met our needs. Our host, Julie, went out of her way to accommodate us and even delivered a new coffee maker in the evening when we discovered the current one did not work. Greatly appreciated! Highly recommend you stay at this home.

Clean
Cabin was clean, the location was a little misleading. It said it was 11.8 miles from keystone but it was not. When I put keystone into my maps from the cabin it was more like 22 miles. Maybe it was 11.8 miles from the mailbox but not the actual cabin. Very hard to get up the roads to the cabin in our van but a truck would probably have less issues. The cabin was clean and check in and out was simple and great!
Great property for a small extended family! If you don’t mind driving to get to places, the Mountain view from the deck was amazing! Nice clean property that had everything we needed.
Everything was very good, but with a little 2 year old boy we had to watch the gaps around the stairs alot, big enough for him to slip through and fall
