Modern Black Hills home nestled in the pines near beautiful Pactola Lake

This modern cedar-sided home offers comfort and convenience, but it is the peaceful, secluded aura that makes it hard to leave. Nestled into the hills, we are bordered by Forest Service land, which offers endless hiking opportunities. The breeze whistling in the pines truly induces peace and relaxation. The outdoor patio and deck space around the home invite family time or individual rest.

The home, built in 2002, has two levels, with the upper floor including a large master bedroom with glass doors leading to the back deck, large full bathroom, fully stocked kitchen, open concept family room and dining area. The lower level holds two bedrooms with queen beds, a full bathroom, laundry area, and large family/game room with a wood-burning stove. Five sliding glass doors and large windows offering beautiful views of the Hills are located throughout the home. Spacious rooms give every guest privacy, yet create openness for group activity.


Fully Stocked Kitchen: Guests are welcome to use the modern conveniences of a gas grill, dishwasher, refrigerator, electric stove, 12-cup coffee-maker, and microwave. Cupboards are stocked with popular seasonings and staples such as coffee, flour and sugar. Cooking utensils, dinnerware, and silverware are all supplied in quantity.

An electric washer and dryer are available for guest usage in the lower level of the home.

Extra Comforts: Each bedroom features a queen-size mattress and its own thermostat for individual control. The home has electric heat, and with the shade of the surrounding pines, is very comfortable all summer.

Beautiful Black Hills

Cabin was clean, fully equipped with everything that we needed and in a beautiful and quiet area. Came with the family and we all enjoyed our stay. As with everywhere in the Black Hills it is a bit of drive to all the attractions but we were expecting that ... got visits from cows every morning, haha.

Perfect place, centrally located to all of our activities. Beds were nice, the couch and loveseat should be replaced if it were up to me , us fat guys had a heck of a time getting out of them :) floors were pretty squeaky for the sleeping in parties downstairs but it was time to get up anyway right. Thank you for a lovely weekend

Great place

We enjoyed this cabin. It was very conveniently located between the things we wanted to do during our stay. The area around the cabin was quiet and peaceful, which is exactly what we were looking for. The locks on the doors are not real easy to lock, especially the upper level sliding glass doors which don'treallylock at all. The main door was not the most convenient and is not a deadbolt as indicated in description. Other thing I wasn't thrilled with was decor and items around with christian god references. There are many different religions in this country and rest of world and felt that was inappropriate decor to have in a vrbo listing.

Pactola peaceful

The cabin is set in a beautiful and quiet location. We took walks past the cabin on the gravel road and it was very relaxing. The cabin provides all of the amenities that you could ask for and met our hopes / expectations. Three things to consider though as mentioned in previous reviews. The very long gravel road is a bit treacherous at the hairpin turns, especially if another vehicle is approaching. There is no "A/C", a small window unit is in an upstairs bathroom and struggles to cool even that room. There are ceiling fans and a floor fan, but you may want to bring another one. We kept the windows open and that helped a bit at night. The grill is caked in burnt crud, so we had to bake...with no A/C. Aside from those 3 issues, a nice cabin in a gorgeous location.....4 out of 5 stars.
