Up in the pines
We had a great stay atop Eidelweiss Mountain. This is probably the cleanest vacation rental I’ve ever stayed at! Immaculate. Brenda is responsive without being intrusive. This place is set up like a home, very cozy, with everything you need. The kitchen was really well equipped, with high end coffee maker and calphalon pans. Sometimes you stay at a VRBO and they don’t have a cutting board or the right knife - this kitchen has it all. The outdoor gas Weber grill is also wonderful. On the top deck you’re eye level with the tops of the pine trees, which is what drew me to the property. The layout of the house with the spiral staircase, and having to go outside to get to the bottom level, is a little awkward but manageable for able bodied people. I did wish I had an intercom so I could call people up for dinner. LOL. My kids loved all the games available, and this led to some family interaction after dinner in the evenings. We all appreciated the space to spread out after a long day of sightseeing - me in the kitchen, tween girl on the phone in the bedroom, teenage boy and his father watching football and playing video games in the basement. It’s a bit of a drive from any direction. Even once you turn off the main road you have another 10 minutes twisting and turning on mostly gravel. We always rent places away from the fray, so this is fine for us, and especially typical in the beautiful black hills. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend!

Mountain top - central location
This house is very well stocked and the beds are comfortable. We appreciate all the extra touches the owner added to make it fell homey. The decks are lovely and we spent a lot of time outside eating and enjoying the view. Our family of six fit with some adjusting. The spiral staircase was tricky for my 75 year old mom. The basement, as noted in the description, is fully separate so it worked for teenagers but the sofa bed was not great for two full grown teenagers. They did like the gaming system there a lot. Overall, the location is central (takes about 10-15 minutes to get down the mountain to a main road) and we enjoyed The Black Hills immensely.

Mountain top solitude
We had a nice time staying on Edelweiss. It's about a 1 hour drive to Custer State Park, wind cave, and crazy horse.
