Mini Vaca

This was a very cute cabin awash with history. Very peaceful with close proximity to Mt Rushmore, Keystone and Custer Park. Wildlife did not disappoint with a huge herd of buffalo being the highlight. Turkeys and deer to greet us in the morning. Will definitely recommend to others!

We love the Glendale Cabin !!

This is our second time staying in the Glendale cabine and we cannot wait to book it again!! We were in the HIlls to ride side by sides with friends and do some touristy things...and this cabin could not be more perfect for our vacation!!! The cabin itself is full of amazing history, is super cute, clean and comfy!! The firepit and picnic table got used a ton...nothing like making breakfast in the grea outdoors, smelling the fresh pine and even feeding an apple to the owners horse across the road, to evenings by the campfire with a spectacular view of the stars!! The location of the cabin is excellent, as well, close to so many Black Hills attractions! And to top it off, you will not meet people nicer than the hosts, Doug and Wendy!! They are amazing!!! If I could give our stay even more than 5 stars, I would!! Fannnntastic Friends getaway and cannnot wait to visit again!! THANK YOU Wendy and Doug for all!! :) :)

Beautiful property in the Black Hills

This is a wonderful cabin home in the Black Hills. Beautiful scenery!! Good location with easy travel to all the sites! It’s minimally stocked for cooking, but worked for our families needs. It was hot when we were there. The 2 window a/c units did a good job of keeping the main living areas cool, but the bedrooms were warm. Didn’t sleep well. All in all though we had a great time!

Family Vacation

We really enjoyed the ease of location of the cabin for our base. It was at most 1:15 away from our destinations like Deadwood & Hot Springs but convenient for the more central attractions. Lots of room for the kids, and cooked all of our meals for breakfast & supper. The house generally stayed cool despite the 80-100 degree days with the window AC running. the stackable washer & dryer were decent sized for keeping up on laundry. Our history loving 9 & 11 year olds enjoyed the binder sharing history, and we saw a doe a few times up the hill coming into the driveway. If we return to the hills, we certainly would consider the cabin again!

Stayed at the property for a family vacation in the Black hills. Excellent location near enough to all the attractions yet far enough out of town to have solitude. Would stay again

This was a wonderful place to stay while exploring keystone and the surrounding area. It is very quiet and was a great space for us to spread out when relaxing. They have done a great job with all of the details. Would love to visit again when we are in the area

Nice Cabin

This cabin was nice- very clean and as advertised in the photos and the listing. Check in was very easy. It is a bit further from Keystone/ Mount Rushmore than I realized, but not too bad. The amenities are minimal (only a few plates and bowl, no soap in the shower), but overall it was a great place to stay.

Wonderful Location & Property

We had a wonderful few days at this cabin. Loved the history and the space. Our kids enjoyed all the outdoor space and played like crazy. We saw deer every morning and the picnic table has beautiful views of the hills. Everything was so clean and comfortable. The location was absolutely ideal and it was so fun to take a back way through some tunnels to see Mt. Rushmore. Wow! So close & convenient to everything.

Fall Break

It was a perfect location for Mt Rushmore. Could drop in to the monument whenever we felt like it. Loved the small town atmosphere. The cabin was far enough of the beaten path to feel secluded but located close enough to civilization ❤️it

Great cabin!

This was a very nice cabin with interesting history. It was very neat and roomy and a perfect location, right outside Keystone. When we got up our first morning, there were five deer and about a dozen turkeys in our front yard. We were only 15 miles from Mt Rushmore! Loved having a washer/dryer. Our hosts provided lots of extras, such as detergent! And coffee! We would highly recommend this cabin!

About the host

Hosted by Doug and Wendy Skogen

Host profile image
Doug and Wendy purchased this cute cabin in 2013 since then we have done an almost complete remodel on it. Now it is our turn to share the beauty and history of this little place that was once a town of it's own! This town was called Glendale and was famous for mining Tin during the time Mt Rushmore was being born!

Why they chose this property

This property is located just a few miles outside of Keystone off a paved road that is very easy to access. The Glendale cabin is just minutes from most attractions in the hills. You will have all the amentias your own home has to offer.

What makes this property unique

Gold Panning in the creek that runs through this property. Gold pans will be provided!!
