2 nights at Bear Den Cabins & Camp

Tammy and Tim are wonderful hosts for a peaceful retreat they’ve built themselves! I will forever recommend this wonderful spot to anyone I know going to the area. They go above and beyond as hosts and have provided everything someone could need during a stay in one of their cabins or glamping tents. It is rustic but with the amenities to make things comfortable and easily reachable. Thank you to both of them for hosting myself and my parents in the larger of the cabins!

Weekend Trip to Bear Den Cabins & Camp

10 out of 10, would recommend to my sister. So clean, perfect location and fantastic hosts. What more could you ask for?

Weekend Trip to Bear Den Cabins & Camp

We really enjoyed our stay! Tammy and Tim are the kindest hosts. The cabin and bathroom/showers are clean. The location is quiet and conveniently located near Custer State Park. It’s a bonus that we could travel with our dogs. We’ll definitely be back!

4 nights at Bear Den Cabins & Camp

This land is absolutely beautiful. The whole set up Tammy and her husband have is peaceful and every bit of a relaxing getaway. Within a short drive of Custer State Park and a few other landmarks about in the area, this was perfect to catch all the spots. Tammy is a hospitality queen, made us feel right at home. We will be returning and spreading the word that this is a 12/10 would recommend place to stay in the Black Hills area!!

1 night at Bear Den Cabins & Camp

Lil Bear Cabin was GREAT! From the moment I arrived, Tammy was so welcoming and helped carry in some of my things. She showed me around and made sure I had everything I needed and more. I arrived while it was dark so it was a treat to explore the camp during the sun rise the next morning. I walked along the trail and said good morning to the friendly horses. I even had deer and turkeys grazing outside my window. There were snacks and a coffee machine in my cabin, a propane fireplace on the porch where I sat and saw some stars, a clean and well stocked bathroom, the perks go on and on. I cant wait to stay here again. On my way out of Hermosa, I got coffee and breakfast at Hermosa Coffee Shop. Would also 110% recommend:) THANKS TAMMY!
