It was a very enjoyable property. With the property being more chopped up it actually allowed for some privacy with multiple guests. We throughly enjoyed our stay.

The house was beautiful and well stocked. The area was fun and easy to get to and around. A must stay in my book. So easy to book!

Due to work demands our company has stayed in various rentals in the area over the past two years. In comparison to what we have experienced at other rentals we would not stay here again. For our business needs, the biggest drawbacks for us were a broken coffee maker and the WIFI or lack thereof. It never connected so we ended up hot spotting the entire time. Because we are generally working we tend to eat in quite a bit and amenities such as cooking accessories were lacking. Lastly, the general cleanliness of the place was not what we had come to expect. While not terrible, attention to details were missing, shower drains were backing up and it was sub-par to others we had stayed previously. Flies were a big issue. Overall, the house is interesting and easily accessible which was a plus.

The morning after our arrival I emailed Budi stating that I was disappointed in the state of the home. The main floor tub wasn't draining, main floor bedroom bedding had multiple spots with "human stains", coffee pot still had old coffee in it and was dirty, two rugs on the main floor are trip hazards because the corners are curling up and the hot tub was not functioning and had pine needles floating in it. It really put a damper on our trip, we didn't even stay the third night.

We enjoyed this house very much. We had a couple issues but contacted the management team and they were very helpful and very quick to respond.
We had 4 families and there was plenty of room for all of us. The kids enjoyed the game room, actually even the adults did as well.
I would advise that if you are looking for a secluded area, this is not it. This is a very developed area. The houses are a little too close on all 4 sides. Lots of partying at too close of neighbors. Overall, it was great place for us and we would rent again.

The house is nice and well maintained. The main floor living area is a little small for us all to hang out together, but there are is space for everyone to spread out on different levels. The only complaint was from our kids. The internet is very slow and cell service a little sketchy. While painful for the adults to listen to it was probably a good thing to not be able to play games online for a few days. Just be prepared.

We had a great time staying at the Jug House Lookout. The location was great, space was more than adequate for our party of 12, and the decor was beautiful! The only reason I didn’t give it a full 5 stars was because it was not as clean as I would have anticipated. All of the coffee tables and baseboards had not been dusted and the kitchen countertops had sticky stuff left on them in places. Perhaps I have a different standards for cleanliness, but had that been better I would have given this 5 stars.

We have stayed at a number of different houses/cabins at Terry Peak. This is my favorite!! Rustic look but a very modern cabin fully equipped and very family friendly. Two of our favorite things was the third level game room - shuffleboard and Pac Man/Donkey Kong video games as well as a TV. This was a great place for grandkids to hang out. My favorite part of the house was the fourth floor master suite with a wrap around balcony, lots of windows, and an incredible view. Great to sit outside in the morning as the sun came up and watch the world come alive. There is also a smaller TV/living room area downstairs. Full size hot tub! We had a great stay and I would definitely rent this one again.

Great cabin. Smaller rooms than we anticipated but our kids loved the game room and the adults could not hear all the noise from the kitchen/living room! Very clean and well stocked! The view from the master bedroom is breath taking!

Great space to come back to after a day at Terry Peak. Rooms appear bigger in the pictures but it worked. Very well stocked kitchen with lots of kitchen supplies. Game room and downstairs area were great for the kids.

We enjoyed our trip to South Dakota! We seen tons of beautiful country and historTic places. We did not spend much time in the cabin, so we did not get enjoy all the great amenities that came with it! The cabin was beautiful with nice views and very clean, and the beds slept well. Thanks for some great memories! Lisa

Beautiful cabin. The cabin was not clean when we arrived but the housekeeper arrived when we pulled in. We had to leave until she was done. The only other disappointment was the constriction materials laying around still. The cabin was so lovely though. Comfortable and we had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend to friends and family.

Manager's Response

Thanks for your feedback Heather, great to see you guys enjoyed the trip! We're sorry our housekeeping was there finishing up the cabin, it looks like you guys arrived a couple hours early to check in so they were still finishing up the cabin before your arrival time at 4. Thanks again for staying!

Welcome to your new favorite Black Hills vacation home named Jug House Lookout. This truly unique cabin offers a one-of-a-kind experience near Terry Peak. The 4th floor tower has some amazing views of the surrounding hills and valley below! The covered hot tub offers a great spot to also take in the amazing view from the cabin and local wildlife. With very easy proximity to the Terry Peak Stewart Lodge, which is just down the road, you can be skiing to your heart’s desire in no time! The Mickelson trail and many other ATV/snowmobile trails are within 10 minutes away, and some ATV trails can even be accessed right from the subdivision. Spearfish Canyon with its great fishing/waterfalls/hiking is only a short 15 minutes away. Downtown Deadwood is also just a short 15-minute drive or taxi ride full of places to gamble, great restaurants, and many festivals throughout the year! Within an hour’s drive from the cabin you can also be enjoying Custer State Park, Mount Rushmore, Keystone, Sylvan Lake or other central Black Hills attractions. Whether you've come to visit to enjoy an adventure filled getaway, a sight-seeing tour of the area, or a relaxing weekend enjoying the view from the tower, Jug House Lookout is surely going to make for a memory filled home-away-from-home.

Outside of the cabin you'll find a parking area for your vehicles/trailers, a single car garage, and 3 levels of patio/deck space great for taking in the view! The patio level has an 8-person hot tub, the second level deck has a gas grill, and the upper level tower deck includes a 360 degree walk around lookout and one of the best views of the area! The dark wood accented floors/ceilings make for an amazingly warm and comforting feeling as you kick your feet up by the gas fireplace or enjoy your company around the kitchen island. The open concept is great for entertaining as well. The lower level has another living area with sectional, TV and bedrooms. As you head upstairs towards the 4th level bedroom/tower, you reach the game room on the 3rd level that includes a DVD player with movies, boardgames, whiskey barrel game council with 49 games, and shuffleboard! The highest level and top of the tower, is the master bedroom with bathroom. The covered wrap-around deck goes all the way around the tower so you get a full 360-degree view of the surrounding landscape. There's also internet at the cabin using a Verizon hotspot and Dish satellite.

Make your next Black Hills vacation your most memorable one here at Jug House Lookout. We welcome you on your next memory-filled vacation.
