The Space:

5-Star Review (see more reviews below!): "Four of us stayed and all commented about how much we enjoyed the whole experience. Thank you!"



Beautifully decorated, vacation home in a prime location!  Whispering Grace is a 3 bedroom home with 2 large living areas, full kitchen, dining room, 2.5 baths, garage and great amenities!  Located just 10 minutes southwest of Rapid City, 20 minutes from Mt. Rushmore and 30 minutes from Hill City, it's a very accessible location in the area!



The main level has a front entrance and a back entrance off the deck.  You'll find a nice open living space that flows into the dining area and kitchen.  The living room has a beautiful rock fireplace, large picture windows and TV with a large sectional sofa.  Dining room seats 6 and the kitchen has a large wrap around counter and lots of space to make and enjoy group meals.



The 3 bedrooms are on the main level - all have queen size beds, closets and dressers.  There are 2 full baths on the main level and a walk-out to the large deck.



The lower level has a large family space with a flat screen TV, electric fireplace, lots of comfy seating and an extra sleeping spot with a twin bunk bed.  You'll also find it a great gathering spot with use of the wetbar and a game table for the kids!  There is a half bath downstairs and a laundry room.  You can walk out the lower level to a patio with seating and tables and enjoy the scenery or play games in the large lawn space.



The home sleeps 8 in beds  - max. capacity is 8.  Garage use, good parking and paved roads make it an excellent choice if you are on motorcycles!

Great family stay at Whispering Pines

Whispering Pines was exactly as shown. It was a great place to stay with our three granddaughters while on a family vacation. The house is spacious to give everybody enough room to spread out, but we could still all be together. Location was great for heading up to Keystone and Custer Park.

Great place in the Black Hills!

This beautiful place was convenient to all the major local attractions like Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Deadwood, Custer State Park, Keystone, and Rapid City. But it was also separate enough to enjoy the country and space. There were deer in the yard nearly every day!

Mt. Rushmore adventures

We had a great time staying at the rental. It was beautiful and being able to play outdoors with the kids was great. The yard was big enough to play sports with the family after a day of sightseeing. Deer was all around and the kids loved watching them. Such a beautiful place and lots of adventures.

Great Family Meeting Place

We loved the location -- very close to stores, etc yet in a neighborhood with very large lots where you could feel like you were in the black hills. We had many deer in our yard just wandering by the kitchen window. We enjoyed the large kitchen table for large family meals and the giant sectional in the front room for lounging and watching TV together.

Wonderful escape

This house was perfect for my family. Upstairs and downstairs made it so the kids had somewhere to play where the parents didn't have to hear them. House came with many amenities that were great for a family staying with Littles including a high chair, play pen, toys it was a nice surprise. Owners were super sweet and helpful! By far one of our favorite vacation houses.
