Family weekend trip

We planned on having our one year olds bday party but he didn’t get out of the hospital till today which still very grateful for so we had to switch it up and just have family stay so we don’t waste the rental. Very nice place and location!! Loved the size of the cabin, perfect for big families.

Christmas in the hills

Cabin was very nice big enough for everybody to get their own private area. Had about everything we needed for a nice hassle free stay, only regret as we didn't get to use all the cabin had to offer. First time we rented for family Christmas and it turned out wonderful.

Perfect location

Cabin was well laid out. Very clean and had a fair amount of staples available for use. Matthew was attentive and responded quickly to any questions or requests we had. Location was perfect for accessing trails, parking with trailers, and proximity to amenities.

Family Reunion

This was an excellent spot for our family reunion. We had family coming from as far as Washington/Oregon and Ohio. This was a great location for everyone to come together and relax and spend time together and also see some of the beautify of our country. I will note when we reserved the house the capacity was slightly different than the current allowable. We worked through it and it did not impact our stay. Matt the manager was great and very attentive to our needs. Without a doubt, we would stay here again!

Family Reunion

Excellent place for family reunion! We had two houses and they were both clean, well equipped and spacious. Matthew was easy to get ahold of, always had a smile on his face and attentive to our needs. Occasionally just stopped by to make sure everything was going ok and that we were having a good time! The house was nestled in a beautiful quiet little valley close to hill city. Walking distance to trail rides and horses all around. Shout out to the wranglers at Country Hill Estates stables who were fun, friendly and knowledgeable of the area! Overall excellent experience and would highly recommend!!! The wi-fi and cell service were poor but I’d consider this a bonus as it kept people off their phones. However one of us had to get on an online course and was able to.

A piece of heaven on earth!

If you need to unplug from the daily grind, this cabin is the ultimate getaway!!! A beautiful scenery and a host that ensures you have everything that you need! The cabin is equipped with everything you need for preparing meals in the kitchen and has a gas grill as well. Plenty of room to eat inside(2 huge tables) or outside(picnic tables on the deck), whatever you prefer. We had a wintery stay with snow (some of the biggest flakes I've ever seen)and rain so we didn't get to use the firepit but it would be ideal and there are chairs and picnic tables for larger groups. We didn't have the greatest cell service or internet but we entertained ourselves with many games and movies that were provided in the cabin! For people who are on phones, computers, etc, everyday, it was nice to unplug and enjoy quiet time reading, watching movies and playing games. It allowed us to connect on a level that our every day lives do not.😉 The cabin is also located close to all the attractions, everything is within a 15-30 mile radius which was amazing! There are many great restaurants and stores in Hill City as well! Definitely an amazing spot no matter the size of your group! We definitely want to visit again and highly recommend these cabins and this host! Thank you, Matthew for sharing your little piece of heaven on earth with us! God Bless!
