Was told there was no ac in the house, and actually there was. The upstairs shower drain was extremely slow, but our onsite handyman fixed it for you. We won’t charge you. None of the windows in the house open??? Made it extremely stuffy. The cabin is nice, but the door does not open or shut well, and no way to secure it when leaving for the day. The property was super cool, but random debris just kinda piled around definitely took away from its beauty. And we realize that prices are going to be more for the rally, but price was extremely high compared with other places, and dates. Please don’t gouge bikers. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, but think certain things could have been better.

Hi Melinda, thank you for staying with us at Silver King Lodge. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and the beauty of the nature out there.
We had a fun family experience at this property. No cell service and a quiet location made it easy to convince our kids to play some board games and laugh with us ;). It was a good location for jumping on some ATV trails during the day and listening to the backyard stream at night. Overall a good stay.

Hi Emily, thank you for staying with us at Silver King Lodge. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and were able to enjoy some family time!
Everyone in our family had a great and relaxing time. Only thing wrong was that we didn’t stay longer. We have stayed in cabins all around the United States and this is hands down the best all around cabin. The cabin is very well thought out and built very well. We will definitely be back in the fall.

Thank Jacob! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay at Silver King Lodge! Thanks for being wonderful renters and taking great care of the home.
Loved the location of this house/cabin. It was small, yet big. Perfect for our group of 8. Close to Deadwood and Lead, yet out in the country. It was peaceful and relaxing. No WiFi, but that was okay because it's good to disconnect sometimes.

Quiet and peaceful
The location of the cabin was perfect. Secluded and peaceful listening to the river at night. Inside of cabin was amazing, with the wood, metals, light fixtures, etc. Some things we werent too happy about....
The cabin was nothing short of amazing! Beautiful creek running behind the cabin! It is a very picturesque location. You do not have any kind of cell service until you get about 5-10 mins from the cabin so that can be kind of interesting but it was a much needed break from reality! The water does smell like sulfur so bring jugs of water for cooking/drinking. We love South Dakota! So much to do around the area!

I have a group of friends that get together for a friends Christmas
The right size of place, backyard had a creek that provided us adventure and tranquility. The inside had an amazing fireplace for hanging out and enjoying conversations. Modern and well done workmanship throughout the house. Absolutely would stay again. The no wifi and cell service was a bit of a shock; but if you can get rid of the reservations of being stuck with the people you are with,it is blissful.

Thanks for taking the time to review our property Paul! We are so glad you enjoyed your stay at Silver King Lodge.
Great location and beautiful house. Needs some work
This is a beautiful house and creek in the back yard was gorgeous. However, the water smelled like rotten eggs. I hope they can get that fixed. It was very potent. We also missed not having a washer and dryer.

Thanks Carrie! The water smell is from the creek so there isn't any fix that we've found yet. We are very glad you enjoyed your stay.
Having just retired this trip was a start at checking off the bucket list and it was an awesome start! The cabin was exactly what was expected and a little more! Finding relaxation was injected into this experience! The sound of the creek whether sitting on the one of the two decks or sitting in the hot tub was straight out of a novel. We had time to ourselves and group time all in one cabin. Definitely a memory that will be cherished. THANK YOU!

Dirty. Water smell was unlivable. Downed trees. TVs didn’t work. Fireplace filled the building with smoke. Grill was rusted. Oven struggled to heat.
Week away with hubby and friends. Cabin was cozy and peaceful. Having no way to communicate by phone was a bit disconcerting. Not sure what someone would do if an emergency occurred. A land line at the very least would have been nice. Enjoyed out stay and loved the fireplace.

Thank you for your feedback, we do provide on our listing that there is no service or Wifi, we are sorry if you missed that. We hope you were able to enjoy your stay with your family and friends! We look forward to hosting you again!
This place is a hidden gem!!!! Rustic, cozy, clean with all the modern amenities. The stream running through the back yard was amazing- our 3 kiddos loved panning and exploring it for hours and hours. We spent the mornings on the back deck sipping coffee, and a fire in the evenings from the double fireplace. The hot tub was the perfect ending to our day!! No wifi!! That was a BIG bonus, we needed this more than I thought we did, it was so nice to be off the grid. :)
