Cozy cabin near all the attractions in the Heart of the Hills! Pet friendly!

"I can not begin to tell you how amazing our stay was. Beds, kitchen gadgets, house furnishings, location, outdoor extras... I literally can not say enough good things. Thank you so much for sharing your home with us!!! The space and location are amazing!!" - Heather R.

The Aspen Hollow Cabin is a clean, cozy, unique and thoughtfully decorated Black Hills vacation home featuring three main floor bedrooms. The master suite contains a king size bed and a private bathroom featuring a custom vanity and a beautiful, modern tiled walk-in shower, with easy access to the hot tub patio. The second bedroom has a queen bed. The third bedroom has two twin beds. There is a second bath at the end of the hall on the main floor with another custom vanity, and a tiled tub and shower.

"Comfortable beds, linens, and very clean with loads of “little things” that make all the difference when you’re far from home" - Gina M.

The open concept main living area features a pet and kid friendly wood-look tile floor, new furniture, and plenty of seating for the whole family. It also boasts an airy, vaulted reclaimed wood ceiling that opens into the cozy treehouse-like loft for additional living space. The loft is the ideal setting to enjoy morning coffee or snuggle up with book, it also contains a full-sized futon for additional sleeping accommodations.

"The loft was a great area to do puzzles and look out the large windows at the beautiful scenery" - Kelsey W.

The kitchen comes fully equipped with new appliances and everything you will need to prepare meals for your entire group. The dining area has a large custom table with seating for everyone. Just off the kitchen and dining area is a secluded patio where you can use the propane grill to cook a meal or simply enjoy plenty of seating to cool off after a long day of exploring the Hills. Later, you can gather around the firepit to enjoy the cool, beautiful mountain evenings by telling stories, making S'mores, and enjoying beverages. If you're ready for a night out, there are well over a dozen great local restaurants, breweries, and wineries within a fifteen-minute drive.

"We looked forward to getting back to the cabin each evening to cook and relax in the lovely space. Super clean!" - Natalie E.

Other amenities include satellite TV with all of the premium movie channels, high speed fiber optic internet with Wi-Fi, a Smart-TV for your favorite streaming services, an on-demand water heater, central AC, and a washer and dryer for your convenience. We also have a hot tub! Enjoy a relaxing soak right outside your door after a long day of site-seeing in the Hills!

"We came to bike and the location on the Mickelson Trail was ideal." - Amy Z.

Your cozy vacation getaway is conveniently located just off of US Highway 16/385 midway between the charming small towns of Hill City and Custer. The property borders the Mickelson Trail, so you have easy access to the 106-mile-long trail that runs the length of the Black Hills from Edgemont to Deadwood (make sure to bring your bikes!) If you are looking for motorized recreation, we have plenty of parking for motorcycles, ATVs, and trailers. National Forest Service motor-vehicle use maps are available at many local businesses and all of the city visitor's centers and NFS offices.

"The Black Hills area has much to offer for a fantastic getaway, and the Aspen Hollow Cabin is centrally located to all the attractions. You will love staying at this wonderful property!" - Sherry S.

The Aspen Hollow Cabin is minutes from Crazy Horse, Custer State Park, Mt. Rushmore, Black Elk Peak, and many area trails and lakes, including Sylvan Lake, Sheridan Lake, and Pactola Reservoir.

"Home is near a highway and helicopter tour business but the home was well insulated and could barely hear the outside noise. Plus the kids were [so] fascinated with watching the helicopters taking off that we ended up enjoying a ride as well!" - Mary R.

Another option is to step out the front door and visit our neighbors, Black Hills Aerial Adventures, to take a helicopter ride and enjoy a truly unique way to experience all the splendor the Black Hills have to offer!

Great find!
Our family visited for a long weekend. We have 3 kids and brought 2 dogs and it was just perfect. The trail just out back was an unexpected surprise! We wore the pups out multiple times a day. We also took a fun and unexpected helicopter ride because the house is next to a helicopter tour operation. And being so close to the helicopter tours wasn’t at all off-putting. The location was excellent for all we wanted to do. If we return in the future we’ll likely rebook with these hosts who make it all so welcoming and easy. Thank you!!!

The home was extremely clean and had everything we needed for a wonderful stay in the Black Hills area. Close to multiple shops and restaurants. Super private and we really enjoyed hanging around the fire pit out back in the evenings. Will recommend to friends/family staying in the area and will be back! Thank you for the amazing week!

Black Hills for the win
Absolutely great place to stay!! Location is conveniently close to things , didn’t have to drive too far out of our way for anything. We felt so cozy and comfy , whatever it was the comfy beds or the cozy fire pit out back. The house was super clean & accommodating. Jack & Lindy really out done themselves with this one. They made sure everything you need is there. We traveled with our dog & they offered a tie out if needed. The Mickelson Trail is right out back as well. It was nice walk in the morning & evening. We cannot wait to be back!!!

The cabin was so clean and the decor western theme added to it. The welcome basket on the table bottle of wine and snacks top it off. Great location. The owner was quick to rely to my question. I would rent it again without a doubt

Hills weekend
Response from the property manager when we inquired about cancellation was slow. Additional messages were not responded to at all. However, checkin info was timely, and we didn't require any additional contact after we checked in. Location was convenient to the Mickelson Trail and Hills attractions. There was a lot of road noise from the highway when we were outside, but was not noticeable in the house. Proximity to the Helicopter business was noisy but fun. Overall, property was as described, clean and well stocked.

Great VRBO for a relaxing vacation with everything you will need and just as advertised in the listing. Location works great for the central/southern Black Hills, and even a short walking path right up to the Mikkelson Trail. No hesitation at all for 5 stars.

Fantastic place to stay with a family!
Our family of 6 stayed in this beautiful home and felt so at ease. The location was easy to find, home was very clean and housed all 4 of our kids very comfortably. I adored the detail of the quilted pieces through the home, sheep skin rugs, style and decor and so appreciated the welcome box for our family! The out door space, swing and hot tub were a hit for all of us and our kids really enjoyed watching the helicopters land and take off near by. The inside of the home was quiet and peaceful!

Great House Great Value
This is by far the best VRBO i have ever had. The house is clean, has updated finishes and appliances, and has plenty of room for 8 people (4 adults, 4 kids). The host was very responsive and provided a really cool welcome gift. I cannot say enough nice things about this rental. The location is excellent and the house had everything we needed any more. I will definitely rent this place again when i visit the Black Hills. I was surprised at the price for such a nice house. Really good value. highly recommended. Thank you!

Absolutely wonderful place! So clean and comfy.
Such a beautifully-decorated and clean place—one of our favorite vrbo’s to date! The hosts thought of everything and provided all the necessities and more (loved the welcome basket!). Great communication. We were originally concerned the helicopters might be too loud but even our most sensitive sleepers didn’t notice anything. The beds were very comfortable and soft and supportive enough for one of our family members with arthritis (a HUGE plus). Exceeded our expectations!
