Tim Mill cottage stay

We absolutely loved our stay at the Tin Mill cottage. The owner Marcia was so helpful along the way and was quick to respond to any questions! We stayed with our 4 young children and it was in a quiet area where they could have space to run and explore nature. The cottage was very clean and well stocked. Would definitely recommend!!

Central location-walking distance to shops, grocery store and places to eat. And don’t forget the 1880 train. Wildlife galore right out in the yard daily, If you are looking for a place to relax after shopping and sightseeing, this cottage is for you!

Quick trip

This property provided a perfect location and easy access to the points of interest. Fully stocked kitchen, however we used only a few cups and bowls during our stay. Linens were nice, house was very clean and plenty of room, there were 3 of us, all adults. We enjoyed sitting outside for a few hours one day. I would stay again!

Tin Mill

Property exactly as described. Very clean and cozy. We had everything we needed. Loved the layout of the house and all the outdoor seating options. Watched the sunrise on the east side of the house and the sunset on the west side. The grill was super nice and ate supper on the deck several nights. Great parking spaces for our truck, trailer and RZR. Appreciated the nice towels and the washer and dryer. It was hot out several days and the cabin stayed nice and cool. Close to downtown but still felt as if you were away from the hustle and bustle. We have already decided to stay here again when we come back next year!

Instructions for both check in and check out were very easy and straight forward. Kim and Marcia are very organized and easy to communicated with. The cabin was incredibly clean, cozy and spacious. The cabin sits in a convenient location just above the town but feels like your in your own little slice of heaven. We really enjoy the beautiful Black Hills and will be returning again.

Wonderful Retreat

We did a “blue highways” road trip which ended in Hill City SD. We spent a week in this wonderful home on the top of a hill overlooking part of Hill City. The home of Marcia and Kim provided everything we needed plus more. The outdoor decking was wonderful, the communication with our host couple perfect. Did I mention the Osprey, deer, and industrious squirrels? Definitely a home to return to again.

Great Location, Great Cabin, Great Stay

We absolutely loved this property for our 6 night stay. It was walking distance to Hill City restaurants and grocery store (if you chose), but on the "quiet" side of the hill. The quiet was only broken by the entertaining whistle of the 1880 tourist train every few hours between 9 and 5ish. The location was convenient to our hiking trailheads in Custer State Park and Black Hills National Forest. The cabin was perfect for the two of us, but could have been just as comfortable for family with children. We found the cabin to be immaculately clean with all the appliances up to date and in working order. The living room and kitchen was spacious with lots of natural light. There was a deck on three sides of the home with multiple seating areas, one under a small gazebo. The kitchen and bathroom was furnished with all the necessities needed for most occupants. We did have to provide some storage bags and spices, but all was good. The beds were comfortable, the handheld pulsating shower head was good and there was plenty of hot water. We appreciated having the covered carport to protect our vehicle from the elements and the willingness of the owner allowing us to hose the dirt from our car after driving on the gravel highway to Spearfish. We would strongly recommend this property for anyone looking to feel like they were getting away from it all while being in the middle of everything.

Gold in Black Hills

My husband and I had been planning our trip to South Dakota for 3 years and staying at Tin Mill Cottage was like finding a "nugget" of gold in Hill City. The cottage was clean and had every luxury of home. It was nice after a long day of sight seeing to come back to the comforts of Tin Mill. The location was absolutely perfect for our plans - close to Mt Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Custer Park and not far away from Rapid City. We had daily morning & sometimes afternoon visits from wild turkey & deer in the yard. We had a wonderful vacation! I would like to add a couple of things about comments I read previous to booking Tin Mill Cottage...there was a complaint about 2 hotels nearby and the train being so close. The hotels were there but did not create any noise and we were still on a hill with our own privacy. Yes, the train ran by a couple of times a day while we were there but never early in the morning or late at night. If we go back to South Dakota, and we would really love to..we will most definitely stay at Tin Mill Cottage.
