4 nights at Bear Den Cabins & Camp

We loved staying at Bear Den! Tammy and Tim are the most welcoming hosts — we immediately felt like a part of their family! As our 5-year-old told us when they went back to their house after greeting us… “They’re so nice, I wish they didn’t have to go.” :) The cabin was cozy and perfect for our family of four. We were extra impressed by the cleanliness of the facilities, and amenities we didn’t expect. Our kids loved exploring the property, seeing the stars at night, and waking up to watch the deer right outside the cabin. The location was great, and pretty central for all the things we wanted to do. Our whole family hopes to visit again, and we will tell all our friends to make a trip to the Black Hills to stay with Tammy and Tim!

We loved staying at the Bear Den cabins! Tammy gave us clear instructions to where/how to find it and was very communicative and friendly! 😊 The location is quiet and secluded, other than the sound of the neighbors clucking chickens (which I loved!), and the passing turkey and deer through the property. We had our two dogs, which I reached out in advance about having multiple dogs and she was very accommodating. We’d love to be back!

The cabin was cozy and just what we needed. We did bring a mattress topper as we noticed from the images the mattresses are thin and I would highly recommend bringing a topper. Tammy and Tim are wonderful hosts. They took me out to their disc golf course in the back. They made rounds every night to wish all of the campers good night. The location is peaceful with animals like dear and turkey walking around in the morning. It is close to so many of the cheife attractions in the area.

We had a great stay at Plenty Star Ranch Retreat. Everything was as we expected. The sleeping cabin, shower facility, and restroom were all neat, tidy, and clean. The overall setting was tranquil with beautiful views of the surrounding valley. This was one of our stops on a multi-day bicycling trip along the Mickelson Trail and it worked perfectly for us.

This property is amazing! Tammy gives a personal tour of the amenities and all they offer, and makes sure you have everything you need for an enjoyable stay, The bathroom with multiple showers and sinks, utility room with microwave and washer, and the covered deck with a grill were above and beyond what we expected. The kids had a great time with the yard games and seeing the horses too.

Although I am new to Hipcamp I can say without a doubt that what Tammy has here is special. She greeted us as soon as we got there and even introduced us to other campers there as well. It was a small gesture, but still very nice. The amenities are fabulous and the bathrooms were awesome! We will definitely be back when we have more time to stay!
