We had the most relaxing and enjoyable time on our vacation to the Black Hills. The house was so perfect. It was the perfect set up for three couples. Each had their own floor of the cabin. We spent most of our time, while at the cabin, on the deck. So peaceful and quiet. Loved watching the squirrels and deer in the yard. The house was very clean and stocked well. Internet, TV, board games, and anything you could think of was available. Check in was a breeze. Check out was easy. I highly recommend this cabin, especially for large groups or multiple families.

Cute, quiet cabin

My family enjoyed staying at Big Jim's Hideaway in Lead, SD. It was a perfect fit for our family vacation. This was a wonderful last vacation spot for my grandparents, that joined us for our family vacation. We loved the decor on the inside and all the adults enjoyed the hot tub in the evenings. The kids had fun exploring around the cabin and playing with their cousins. We will definitely consider this place again for a family vacation. Wonderful place, easy to book, easy to communicate with cleaners. Overall a great experience!

Great location

We came with family to enjoy 4 wheeling in the Black Hills. It was a great cabin with lots of room. It was really nice having a washer and dryer on site as our clothes get dirty from the trails. The hot tub was a good bonus. My only complaint was that it is listed as 4 bedrooms, but it only has 3 and 2 double bunk beds in the basement, but we had more than enough room for us. It got warm in the basement for them the first night, but they found a fan for the other nights.

Vacation

Location was nice but a little difficult for motorcycles. Hot tub there but to busy to even enjoy it. Had five couples and had enough space for everyone. Only drawback was we did complain about cleanliness. They were glad we notified them about it so they could check more often after the cleaning crew leaves.

Adequate. It could have been cleaner. It needs some owner attention--fix closet door on main floor, remove building materials and window air units. Needs ice cube trays in freezer, needs grab bar and grip strips in tub/main floor bath. Need extra batteries for TV remotes. Outlet behind couch on main floor doesn't work.

This cabin needs a lot of maintenance, The front door sticks very badly, the screen in the patio door was broken, screen in main floor bathroom was broken, trim on the doorway upstairs was off, the closet door on the main floor bedroom was off with a bunch of clutter inside. I was expecting a higher end facility for the price. There were several notes to clean the gas grille, I ended up taking the grease tray out and cleaning a grocery bag of old grease out of the grill.

Cabin worked

This was our 2nd trip to Lead cabin was a nice size for our family. Beds were comfy to sleep in. Down fall was didn’t look like the cabin had been cleaned in awhile dust everywhere, when we booked several months ago don’t remember it stating no AC which made it difficult for 2 of our group to sleep due to health conditions. My 10 month old grand daughter got over heated since the washer and dryer are in the bedroom. Would recommend adding some more ceiling fans in the bedrooms to help circulate air.

We really enjoyed our stay at the cabin, which we primarily used as a home base for hiking and site seeing around the region. The cabin itself is very nice—spacious, clean, fast internet, etc. The hot tub was also a big plus. Look forward to returning.

More pluses than minuses

On line booking and constant emails from Deadwood Connections -great! Found out upon arrival that washing machine had just broken but the rental agency had someone out in two days and it was fixed! The cabin was a great setup for our group. The four grandkids all love being together every second so they really enjoyed having the entire lower level to themselves to bunk out. The hot tub was clean and worked perfectly and was such a delight after a full day of hiking and off roading. There were plenty of towels provided but facecloths were scarce so that wasn’t the best but we got by. All in all we would certainly stay there again but I do agree with some previous comments about property that the extra fees (cleaning fee etc) should just be figured in with the daily rate and not add ons.
