Fun Historic Cabin with the Best Swimming Hole on Spring Creek
Located in the historic Stratobowl near Rockerville, this classic Black Hills ranch style home is right on Spring Creek in a rugged canyon. The back windows and deck look out onto the best swimming hole on all of Spring Creek. Surrounded by hiking trails along the creek and in the National Forest, this is the perfect location for families searching for adventure in the great outdoors or couples who want to get away from it all in an incredibly peaceful setting.
The house has been fully updated with all of today's conveniences including climate control, updated electrical system, and DSL internet. Located near Rockerville, this home is secluded, yet only 20 minutes from Rapid City or Mount Rushmore.
Sleeps 6. The master bedroom has a king size bed with large windows looking down to the creek. A second bedroom has a queen size bed also with views of the creek. The third bedroom is the heritage room with a king size bed built into the room. The home has a deck on the creek side where guests can enjoy their morning coffee or grill out later in the day. There is a well-equipped kitchen and a very comfortable living room with a 42" television. The bathroom has a walk-in shower with grab bars. The single level and attached garage make it ideal for anyone with mobility difficulties.

Great property and a great stay! The location was perfect, with easy access to Mount Rushmore and everything the area has to offer. The property was clean, comfortable, and exactly what we were looking for. The host was fantastic—friendly, responsive, and very accommodating. We really enjoyed our stay and would absolutely recommend this property to anyone visiting the Mount Rushmore area!
Beautiful property and friendly host! Location is off the beaten path but only 20 minutes from grocery and other stores. Great cabin for our family of 5.
Fantastic property with equally great host! It is a destination location without even needing to leave the property. Hiking, kayaking, swimming, fishing, and playing games--we were very happy.
Wonderful place. Just as listed. Close enough to all of the attractions, but far enough off the grid to feel like we were alone.

The cabin and property have an interesting history which was great to know. However we feel more attention could be made towards comfort. The king size bed mattress needs to be replaced as well as the pillows, more options available for tv use, and we were looking forward to kayaking but the water was too shallow to actually kayak. While the views were stunning, the grounds outside needed attention. Overall the location of this cabin is ideal in proximity to many of the parks, monuments and sights we visited.
Great relaxing property with lots of hiking in a convenient are in the Black Hills. Really enjoyed Kayaking in the river and just sitting outside relaxing to the sounds.
Close to all the tourist attractions, but could have totally spent the whole weekend on this gorgeous property without leaving! Exceeded our expectations!
Great experience! Did have to check in personally with host to sign waivers, which was unexpected, but helpful to get info about the property and area. Was such a great property to stay at with the swimming hole and trails. Location to all of the things to explore in the area was also good.
Our family loved this location so much it was hard to get the kids to want to leave the cabin to see nearby attractions. Canyon, creek, swimming hole, and hiking trails were simply amazing.
Loved this location. Property was beautiful with the swimming hole and stream. Hiking trails to overlook the area was amazing. Close to places we wanted to visit. Would stay there again!
This home offers all that you'd need for a wonderful vacation in South Dakota. Ken was prompt and very kind in answering questions we had prior to our arrival. Shortly after our arrival Kens daughter greeted us and in conversation we learned the history of the family home which we found very interesting. This home is the most well stocked home we've ever rented and included many things other rentals do not have. There were plenty of towels (bath,hand & washcloth), beach towels, shampoo, conditioner & body soap dispensers in the shower, hand soap, paper towels, toilet paper and even kleenex were provided. Despite the homes age it has central air which my husband was very appreciative of as the temperatures were in the 90's. It's central to many places to visit in South Dakota yet also offers so much to do if you choose to spend a day at the house. The kids enjoyed the swimming hole, kayaks and trails on the property, while we enjoyed sitting on the deck and watching them have fun. My husband and I enjoyed early morning walks on the trails while the boys slept in. Thank you Ken & family for sharing your home and property with us.
Property was amazing!! The house was clean and the swimming hole was so much fun for my kids! It was very centrally located to all the attractions we wanted to see and the trails accessible right from the house were beautiful!! An amazing spot!!!
My boys and I had the trip of a lifetime! The property was absolutely stunning—far beyond what we imagined. We highly recommend it for anyone looking for a relaxing outdoor getaway. Ken and his family were incredible hosts, and the space was spotless and perfect for the whole family. We’ll definitely be back for more!
Our family stayed here in early July. It was beautiful! The kids had an amazing time in the swimming hole. Every small detail planned by the host was appreciated. There were games for adults, toys for children, beach towels and extra toiletries if you forget something! Great host, great house, great history!
