- "Owner and staff were extremely accommodating. We stayed one night on our way back from vacation. I called the owner to see about moving the nght of our stay, and she was so accommodating. I had originally booked the stay through Expedia, and they said there was no way to change it. I called the owner, and she said to let Expedia know and she would approve it. I submitted the request online to Expedia, and they sent it to her for approval. Within a few minutes I had confirmation that she had indeed received the approval. Then, we decided to come back from vacation a day early, so I called the owner the day before. She said she said she had one room left for that night and let me change it at the last minute. We will definitely be staying there again if we go to the Black Hills in the future."
