We loved the cabin! It was exactly what we were looking for; quiet, cozy and lots of charm! Close proximity to off road trails, which was our main focus while in the hills. We will definitely be staying again.

Enjoyed our time relaxing and exploring in the Black Hills. This was a great "home base" and had everything we needed and even things we had forgotten. There were beautiful views and friendly neighbors. Very clean, fully furnished kitchen, and lots of resources for local attractions.

Out of the way, a beautiful country location. Wish our stay could have been longer, to take advantage of the horse riding nearby. Everything worked properly and the host was super helpful. Highly recommend!

Perfect family getaway

This cabin felt like home the minute we walked in the door. The boys loved sleeping up in the loft and having camp fires under the stars at night. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a quiet place to relax and enjoy the wildlife and scenery of the black hills.

4-wheeling weekend trip

We came to Nemo for a 3-day get-away & this cabin was the jackpot of the weekend! Perfect size & location just outside of town! It was quiet & private with easy access to town. We will definitely be staying here again!! Host was very efficient & responded to messages promptly so another plus:)
