Peaceful, Private, Quiet And Luxurious Cabin On 15 Acres Surrounded by Forest

Private and luxurious cabin situated on 15 acres with Little Elk Creek running through it, and a small pond just steps away from your door. Perfect for a relaxing getaway! Newly remodeled, inside and out! Huge bedroom with comfy king size bed complete with premium quality bed linens! Large bathroom with granite vanity, waterfall sink and walk-in shower with seat. Open kitchen/living area with huge windows to take in the breathtaking views in every direction. All new stainless steel appliances, granite countertop and nicely appointed kitchen with all of the amenities. Huge deck on two sides with seating areas, dining table with umbrella and new Weber gas barbecue grill for your outdoor enjoyment. This beautiful cabin is wheelchair accessible with a ramp leading up to the deck, extra wide doorways and seating in shower. There is also a queen-size hide-a-bed in the living area which is perfect for one or two children. A fire pit is just steps away, for making s'mores and stargazing! New large 4G flat screen satellite TV and blue ray DVD player for your viewing enjoyment. This cabin is THE place to get away from it all, relax in luxurious comfort and revitalize your body and spirit! A double Caribbean hammock hung between two old oak trees is the ideal spot to take a nap or read a good book while communing with nature! Wildlife abounds in this area! You will see deer, wild turkey, bald eagles, elk and much more. The coyotes will serenade you from a distance every evening. We have several bird feeders and bird houses on the property. Mountain blue birds are plentiful and will amaze you with their beautiful song and their brilliant blue color! In August of 1874 General George Armstrong Custer camped in this valley. You will be experiencing history! The book describing Custer's expedition is on the coffee table and is available for your enjoyment. History buffs will love it! With National Forest on three sides, this is also a great place for hiking and ATV-ing. There is direct access to Kelly Spur Road which connects with over 3500 miles of ATV trails. We provide coffee, tea, flour, sugar and a variety of spices. The kitchen is equipped with plenty of dishes, silverware, glassware, pots, pans, utensils, crockpot, dish soap, napkins & paper towels. The laundry room has a brand new Maytag washer & dryer available for your use. The all-new stainless steel appliances include refrigerator with ice-maker, five burner stove with oven, microwave & dishwasher. Granite countertops in both kitchen and bath. Plenty of thick, fluffy towels are provided, as well as soaps, and a hairdryer. We have high speed satellite internet and cable 4G TV. Cell service is very limited throughout the Black Hills. As you travel through the Black Hills, cell service will come & go. If you need to use a land line, we live on the adjacent property and are happy to let you use our phone. We are also available should you have any other needs. While visiting Misty Haven we invite you to come check out our spring-fed pond on our adjacent 40 acres. It is filled with gorgeous rainbow trout. We provide fishing poles for your use and you may keep a trout or two to eat while you are here. Otherwise we ask that you catch and release. We also provide fish food should you just want to feed the trout and watch them swim right up to the shore. This is THE place to get away from it all and enjoy relaxing in the beautiful Black Hills! Check out the view from the king size bed! Wouldn't you like to wake up to that view??? PLEASE NOTE: AT TIMES DURING THE WINTER MONTHS THIS CABIN MAY ONLY BE ACCESSIBLE WITH A HEAVY DUTY 4-WHEEL DRIVE VEHICLE OR SNOWMOBILE.

This place has it all.. Cozy getaway, Back yard UTV trails, hiking trails, and wild life. Close by to town and tourist attractions, but far enough away to get away from people and the hustle and bustle. Absolutely a gem in the Hills.

Very nice & clean cabin

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The cabin was VERY clean (the cleanest cabin/house we have ever stayed in). The owners thought of everything from providing kleenex's, Q-tips, paper towels, laundry soap, etc. The cabin is located in a very quiet spot with lots of wildlife that visited the cabin every day - turkeys, birds and deer. We will definitely go back!!

AWESOME PLACE!!!!

What a wonderful place to stay with wonderful hosts!!! Loved the quiet and secluded location. Far enough from town to have a quiet stay, but close enough to Sturgis to run into town to get ice cream! Loved the host as they are so nice. The building was very clean and well stocked with all the amenities you need. Loved the fire pit and it was perfect for S'mores. If we come back to the Black Hills we will stay here again. Loved out stay!!!

Cabin is newly remodeled. Fully stocked with anything you could possibly need and great location.

Misty Haven was the perfect place my wife and I to celebrate our anniversary. We rode atv's during the day and grilled out while relaxing on the deck at night. Margaret even brought us a bottle of wine as an anniversary gift. Cabin proved to be more than we expected. Can't wait to return next year.

Amazing!

If you are looking for a peaceful, cozy, clean place with beautiful views then this is the place! I have rented many places before and this was just amazing…better than the photos! The cabin was spotless, bed and furniture was comfortable and the place had everything we needed! We enjoyed the freshly ground coffee (provided by hosts) on the front patio every morning. The location was central to all the attractions we wanted to see, however due to construction it took a little longer to get to certain areas, we took our side by side and explored the trails which were easy to access and the views from the cliffs were so cool! Margaret and Derito were absolutely delightful and brought us some tiramisu that was to die for. They invited us to hang out by the pond and watch the trout and have a drink. I could have chatted with them all night!

Best VRBO experience ever…

We came to SD for the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally. I have stayed at a lot of VRBOs and this place was by far the best! Margaret and Dorito were the best hosts. They obviously take great pride in their property and really take care of all the details. The cabin had everything we needed. EVERYTHING. The cabin was clean, organized and has a beautiful view! From the warm welcome on the table with the little vase of wildflowers when we arrived to the attentiveness when we had questions and just all around friendliness. Margaret made us tiramisu from scratch that was hands down the best we have ever had! They brought us fresh veggies from their garden. We just can’t say enough good things about our stay here. The view was beautiful and there were deer in the clearing most evenings. And after dark you can hear the coyotes in the hills. There are bird feeders so you can sit on the deck and watch the birds and a nice fire pit to sit by in the evening. Being there for the rally we were a little nervous about the gravel but it turned out to not be a big deal at all. It really made us feel like we were coming back to relax after a long day of riding. Thank you so much Margaret and Dorito for everything. We’ll be back and definitely recommend your place!

We loved our VRBO. The location was perfect, and the place was spotless. The hosts were delightful and invited us to fish on their pond stocked with trout. Margaret made a wildberry dessert, and gave us a cucumber and tomatoe from the garden greenhouse. I highly recommend staying here.Unfortunately, the clouds blocked our attempts at star gazing.Thanks again for a wonderful 4 night stay. I would definitely stay here againSandy

A True Haven in the Hills

If you are looking to be immersed in beautiful, peaceful surroundings that are cared for by top-notch hosts who want you to have a good stay and will offer you unobtrusive, but incredible hospitality, then this is the place for you! We have stayed in at least seven different Black Hills accommodations over the years, and would highly recommend Misty Haven. On this trip, we had a rare opportunity to travel with our adult son who bases out of NYC. Our top priority was simply to relax and spend time together. As three adults, we felt we had plenty of space in the clean and well-appointed cabin. We were also provided the option of a new easy-to-inflate queen mattress which was a comfortable option for our son to sleep on. Since we didn't have to deal with opening or closing a sofa-bed, we had the added benefit of simply spending time in the living area, reading over coffee in the morning and playing a game in the evening. We also enjoyed the many outdoor aspects of this property. We grilled/ate on the patio, chatted by the fire, fished in the host's trout pond, listened to the birds, rested in the hammock, walked on the gravel road while viewing wildflowers, and took in the starry night sky. You will feel at home-- and yet transported to a haven-- whether you just want to hang out together or you have plans to be active in the scenic Black Hills. Go ahead and book the cabin!

This place is so cute, clean, and in the center of nature - it's absolutely wonderful. The drives to and from the towns were beyond breathtaking too. What a wonderful place to soak in the environment and to unplug from the reality of life. Would highly recommend this place! The owners are wonderful too.

Beautiful, Quiet, Restorative

Not a large home, but has everything you need to recharge. Margaret stopped by briefly to introduce herself, and deliver a delicious gift, which is not something you typically run into - especially one made personally by the owner. The house and property are in top notch condition - clean and well cared for. The view from the front deck is amazing! I don't think there is a "bad" view - just more or less distance. It is definitely out of the way, which is exactly what I was looking for. The black hills are a special place and this property fits right in. I hope to visit here again!

Would definitely choose to stay again and again!

Quiet, secluded, refreshing natural setting that adds to exploring the vicinity. We stayed a week in early May (with some very diverse weather conditions - including snow) and we were well please with this cottage as our home base. Felt at home from beginning to end. Able to do all day trips planned and have a few days just being relaxed on site. We found everything needed to support cooking nightly dinners. Very fresh and new feeling conitions. Hosts are wonderful and very responsive.

This property was just perfect. My wife and I got away on an anniversary trip. The cabin was comfortable, clean and even better in person than it looked in the pictures. It is perfectly located. We used it as a base from which we visited everything we wanted to see (the Badlands, Devil’s Tower, Mt Rushmore, Wind Cave, etc). The owners are amazing. They were accommodating and welcoming and checked in to make sure we didn’t need anything. Meeting them was one of the highlights is the trip.

Our hosts went out of their way to ensure our every need was met and we lacked for nothing right down to the welcoming bottle of wine and a most decadent chocolate dessert made by Margaret.
