Can't say enough good things about our wonderful stay at Black Hills Getaway - Alpine Prairie Lodge! Cabin was very clean, super well equipped, spacious, beds were comfortable, hot tub was great, most major attractions within an hour drive, host was not only super responsive, but proactively reached out to see if we had any questions or needed anything to make our stay more enjoyable. Best VRBO experience that we've ever had. Highly recommend this property and host. 10 out of 10!

The directions need to be updated. The road is now black too. It would be easy to find.
