Peaceful, comfortable, spacious!

Where do I begin….? 7 of us stayed at this beautiful property. Each day we ventured out to the amazing sights of the area- Crazy Horse, Mt. Rushmore, Badlands National Park, Devil’s Tower in Wyoming, Deadwood, Custer State Park, and more. After driving and exploring each day, coming back to this house was delightful. There was plenty of room for all of us at the table, on the couches, in the bedrooms, and, our favorite place- outside viewing the wildlife. Each morning and evening deer came up and drank out of the little stream. Turkeys visited every day too. The chairs down by the stream and the wooden swing seat are such peaceful places to sit and relax. Our teen son loved the downstairs area he claimed for himself with more couches, tv, and foosball table. All of the furniture and decor is so beautiful, and everything was set up to make us feel right at home. The communication with our hosts was the best I’ve ever had. Jordan responded so quickly to any questions and provided an entire online guidebook about the house! Oh…and the solar flare allowed us to view the northern lights from the back porch during our stay. What a stunning surprise! A tip for anyone staying here- check out the Chuckwagon Hayride & Dinner at the Bluebell Lodge at Custer State Park (make reservations). All of our party from age 14-72 loved it!

Gorgeous Home Centrally Located In The Black Hills!

We had a wonderful stay at this Property! We had a multi-generational group from 7 months old to 91 years old and everyone enjoyed it immensely! The home was spotless, the scenery surrounding was even better than the pictures depicted, and our hosts had thought of everything that we could need from high chairs and toys to firewood and potato mashers. We would definitely stay here again!

Hill City Stay

Our stay at Barrel Springs was great! Our group had 5 couples and we fit very comfortably at this property. The large kitchen was great, as was the outdoor patio area. The house was very clean and provided all that was needed for our stay. Very comfortable beds and plenty of living space to relax. The location is just south of Hill City so it was close to the ATV trails and Custer State Park/Sylvan Lake. If you are looking for a peaceful and quiet area to stay, don't pass on this property. Also wanted to mention that our host Jordan was always very responsive with any questions that we had. Highly recommend this property!

The home sitting was the highlight. Beautiful and peaceful sitting. There were 7 of us and it was spacious and very comfortable. Everything was very clean and accommodating. We were suppose to have 9 and one couple canceled. It still would have felt spacious and comfortable! We enjoyed our stay very much and nicely located. Custer has the best restaurant called Slovene Kitchen. Make reservations. Don’t miss it. Best dinner we have ever had!

Black Hills Excursions

Wow…what an incredible experience. The property and house were absolutely breathtaking and the stream, well that just topped it off for us. The tranquility of it all was exactly what we needed to rejuvenate from the city life. Loved the wildlife. There were 2 bunnies that would visit each day that was just too darn cute. We watched the deer come through each morning as we had our coffee out by the stream and caught the deer in the evening when we returned from our incredible adventures. Even got a glimpse of some wild turkeys in the neighbor’s yard. Friendly neighbors were kind enough to come say hello and visit a bit. Made our stay even better. You could not ask for a better place to stay. Convenient to many of the scenic excursions of the Black Hills. The only bad part is the day you have to check out. YOU WILL NOT WANT TO LEAVE. Can’t wait to come back.

It was a perfect house to celebrate our 60th wedding anniversary with our family of 10 for a week. The location was excellent for all our activities. We loved the large kitchen, dining/living room. It had a lovely patio to relax and enjoy the outdoors and beautiful view. There was plenty of room to park our three vehicles. The fire pit was excellent to roast s'mores. We loved everything about it.

Great House Great location

The house was exactly as described, beds are comfortable, plenty of towels. Great location close to many scenic routes. We stayed during the winter and the trail behind was a beautiful walk, deer and rabbits graced in the back yard. Loved the kitchen. I would recommend this location to family and friends Couple of suggestions: During winter months should have a mop to clean up from the snow and mud from driveway. Kitchen rug is a trip hazard just waiting to happen.

Amazing place!!!

This property was probably one of the best my wife and I have stayed at. The house is beautiful and the location is ideal if your wanting to have some privacy and quietness. The house was spotless and literally had everything you needed. The owners were so accommodating and also, I felt, went the extra mile to make sure our visit was the best. The process of checking in was so easy and they gave such great info on the local area to explore. Although it was just my wife and I, this place has so much room that several families could stay and have plenty of room and entertaining space. I would highly recommend and we will be coming back again during peak season and will not stay anywhere else. There is only one negative thing to say about this property, and that is, it kinda hurts to leave it to go back home!!!

Perfect Setting

We have stayed many times in the northern part of the Black Hills. This was a first time in this area and we LOVE it. The property is located in a peaceful setting where you can easily connect with nature by taking a walk or bike ride on Mickelson Trail or spending time by the stream that goes through the edge of the yard. We also saw deer grazing in the yard most mornings. I really cannot think of a better location! The property itself has everything you need for your stay. It is located just off a main highway (although it doesn't feel like it) and close to three separate communities that are well known for their tourist attractions. It really is the best of the Black Hills! Thank you for a great family weekend!
