About this property
Beautiful Off-Grid Living @ Granny Flats
Welcome! Cappie, star of two episodes of Discovery Channel's Building-Off-The-Grid and co-host of Magnolia Network’s Building Outside the Lines, built this adorable off-grid cottage as his own, but now you have the opportunity to stay!
This beautiful 3-acre property, once the Swisher Farm, is today a working homestead, with dozens of chickens and a large garden. This quiet oasis is located within the city of Spearfish.
This cottage is handmade, from the bespoke front door to the custom 2-headed shower. We know you'll appreciate the details!

About the host

My name is Candace and I manage the properties for Cappie and Rachel including the Off-grid Cottage and the Farmhouse. If you have any questions about the property or the area please let me know!
Why they chose this property
We're located right on two bike paths, one will lead you directly to a Crow Peak Brewery, a local food market, and two restaurants down the road, and the other one will provide access to the commercial centers of town, where there are several exceptional locally-owned restaurants and breweries.
You also have quick access to the gorgeous northern Black Hills, which are popular with hikers, bikers (both kinds!), and nature lovers. We are essentially equidistant from the Badlands (1.5 hrs), the Southern Hills (Mt. Rushmore, Wind Cave NP, Jewel Cave NP, Custer State Park; 1.5 hrs), and Devil's Tower NM (1 hr).

What makes this property unique
Granny Flats is located in the old small-farm area of Spearfish, which used to be known for it's fruit and vegetable production. Today, much of it has been converted into large lots for homes, but the small-farm feel still pervades through a few small greenhouses and farm stands.
