Our stay was very nice. Just a few things—the picnic table was broken and not useable. Also the chairs around the fire pit were also broken.

Beautiful property with a great location. The cabin was clean and perfect for our accommodations. I wish we could have stayed here for a few more days.

Nice cabin! Beds were comfortable and amenities were good. The addition of shampoo, soap, towels, and basic kitchen equipment were a plus.

It was okay It was clean and ready for our stay but when we walked in, it was like being in a sauna.It was very hot outside and the window ac couldn't cool it. We had to run to town to by fans and wait for nighttime to get enough cool air inside to make it comfortable to sleep. The fridge/freezer needed updated as it was old and hard to keep food cold. The chairs and picnic table outside needed replaced as they were worn out and broken/damaged.

Family Trip Perfect for our trip…2 adults and a 12 year old traveling with our dogs. Stayed during the week so surrounding area was quiet. Great location, spent days in Custer state park and The Badlands. Thank you!

Great location! Great stay! My husband and I had the pleasure of spending 3 nights at Bluebird Retreat and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It was quiet, well stocked and just a short drive into Hill City. Its location makes it convenient for getting to many of the local attractions. The property manager is so responsive and timely in our communication with her. Thank you Michelle. We would definitely stay here again

Quiet and great location The location is great. Just a short 4-5 mile drive to Hill City. The cabin was clean and the easy to unlock the door when we arrived. It was a hot day and the cabin was a bit warmer than I liked. It was cool enough by bedtime to sleep comfortable, but I feel the A/C should have been started earlier in the day. There were weeds around the front porch and for me, this takes away from the appearance of the cabin. Pulling or cutting the weeds would have improved the looks. I am mildly disappointed when I find things that don't work. I found a window that wouldn't open and probably not a big deal. But the cabin had very few windows you could open and when I was trying to cool the cabin down it would have been nice to open all the windows. Also most cabins have a couple of soft blankets to use for front porch sitting. We found one blanket intended for use on the bed, but we used outside anyway. I realize these are minor things, and don't ruin the stay. But the details to me, and the attention to details make the stay better. One thing in the positive that I appreciated very much was there was no requirement to clean and sweep the floor, take the bed apart or even take out the trash. I did take out the trash because I feel it is the right thing to do. The only chore we had was to wash the dishes which we did. If I return to the area I would consider staying here again.
