Lovely place close to attractions
Red Dog Lodge was very comfortable and scenic and close to Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse and Black Hills attractions. We appreciated the air conditioning our first couple of days and the gas fireplace to take the chill off our last day. Highly recommend!

This home was a perfect location for our vacation. The property was as nice as represented. The hot tub was the highlight for our grandsons. The only negative was the loft was quite warm even this time of year even with the air conditioner and ceiling fan. We would definitely stay there again!

Very nice setup.... with the loft and bedrooms. Great outdoor space, firepit and hot tub. Grill did not work very well so that was disappointing. Location to Hill City was very convenient.

Beautiful property
The home was a great size for our group. We all enjoyed staying and relaxing after being out all day. It’s very close to all the places we had planned to go and we always came home to some deer out on the lawn. We also loved the trail just out front for a nice run. Thank you!

Gorgeous cabin in the hills
Absolutely loved this cabin! Super nice and clean with every thing you need for a wonderful stay in this area. Every room has its own heat and ceiling fan. Plenty of dishes for a large group. I liked that this place has everything you need but not 1000 extra things you need to remember where to put back. Nice and private even though its in a group of cabins.

The property location was great. Upon arrival the property was just being cleaned and ended up being rushed as the bedrooms were not vacuumed. We had some problems with cleanliness of hot tub and property hosts were responsive to our requests. The place could use better cooking pans, needs updating, and note there is only one window air conditioner (happy we had cool evenings). We did enjoy our stay.

Short Trip
Served the purpose. Hot tub nicer than expected. The amount of dust caked onto the bathroom vents made us question how clean the rest of the house was. Shower heads were terrible. Many light bulbs burnt out and fixtures that had dead bugs in them. Beds were very uncomfortable. Location was very nice.

Nature at its Finest!
This property is a gem! It’s nestled in the pines, but is less than 10 minutes from town for all the necessities anyone could need. We experienced some spring snow and the views out of the large windows with views of the pines, and a warm fireplace going was a dream! I’d definitely stay again!

Great location to the Black Hills
We stayed when the weather was very warm. There is an air conditioner, but too small for the area it had to cool. Furniture could use some updating - especially 2 of the couches, but the beds were comfortable and the area was very peaceful. A nice location within 2.5 miles of Hill City.
