Great Cozy Cabin

This was a great place to stay for my family. The cabin iscozy but never felt too small. Being pet friendly was a huge plus for us. The hot tub and deck were perfect for hanging out on and the deck has gates to keep your pets secured.

It was a little smaller than I thought it would be, but the property is well decorated and nice. There is a small air conditioner in the upstairs bathroom, but opening the windows in the cool evenings was really all we needed to keep it comfortable.

The whole process was easy and seamless! Great communication via email about the cabin and local attractions! All communication included various phone numbers in case they were needed! Definitely rent through Deadwood Connections again!

The cabin was very comfortable for our group. The kitchen was well stocked, ( better than most rentals!) WiFi and cable TV was great. Plenty of towels for hot tub and showering. The area was mostly quiet. We had a great time! Thank you

Ski community cabin

Nice cabin in the Terry Peak ski area community. Classic cabin feel inside with lots of wood. In a community so you will see other houses/cabins around, although they are not stacked on top of each other or anything like that. Could easily fit 4-6 people but wouldn't want more than that there personally as it could feel a little cramped with more people.

Buffalo Loft

We really enjoyed our stay here! There were a few things we were a little down on. The pictures make it seem like it is more secluded, when there are actually cabins on all four sides. There is one window air conditioner in the upstairs bedroom, where the bed is super stiff, but sinks in the middle. The downstairs shower and sink are slow to drain.

Lead vscstion

Enjoyed property. Cabin filled with very nice kitchen dishes, pots and pans, utensils. Appliances top of line. Only thing we wished for in this property was a propane fire pit on deck. But very happy with property overall. Upper bedroom mattress needs to be replaced, too soft, you sink to middle.
