Number one amenity from our reviews? The master bedroom shower - walk-in and multiple heads that shower the entire body at once!
Looking to sit and grill on the deck and watch the local wildlife (5-6 deer, wild turkeys, etc.) graze on the property? Got that. Looking to sit in the living room and enjoy views of pine trees, South Dakota skies, while watching a movie and drinking beer/wine/etc.? Got that too! Looking to talk a short walk and watch amazing sunsets off to the west on the edge of your own personal forest or from top of the hill adjacent to the south? Maybe catch a glimpse of George Washington on Mount Rushmore all lit up? Got you covered! Looking to be almost totally secluded without a neighbors house closer than 500 feet? Got that. Looking to stargaze at night with virtually zero light pollution? We've... got... that! Looking to head into Rapid City and grab a world famous ice cream treat at Armadillo's? A quick drive away! Looking to head to Mount Rushmore, Custer State Park, Rushmore Adventure Park, Bear County USA, Reptile Gardens, Prairie Berry Winery, and many more attractions all within 15-20 minutes? Right in the middle of all of that! Looking to access all the Black Hills has to offer from your secluded paradise while still being within 3 minutes of major SD highways? Got that too.

We loved the location and property grounds. We saw a deer in the back yard the first night. There was a great place to hike right out the back door. There was plenty of room and the host was very helpful. It was secluded, but still in a good location to visit Mount Rushmore and the badlands. Such a great stay!
Our stay was wonderful. The host did a great job of communicating and helping us with any problems we had. Would highly recommend as the location was perfect and it was super clean.
Loved our stay! The property and house were amazing, and the accommodations exceeded our expectations. The location is great for the outdoorsy type. No complaints whatsoever!! Hope to stay again soon!
Kenneth,
Thank you for your great review and thank you especially for bringing a couple of maintenance issues to our attention. We will definitely address those before our next guests arrive! Welcome back anytime!
We loved our stay. This was the first rental we've been at that had nice pots and pans and sharp knives. Our bed was very comfortable. I'm not a fan of memory foam beds and that was in the master. The location was great and pretty secluded. The hosts were very quick with all communication.
This property looked amazing, but we had to cancel prior to our visit due to two more family members joining us on our trip. The house didnt work out for the number of people we had staying, but the owner was very good about refunding us our money.
We had a fantastic stay at this property! The home was beautiful, very clean, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing visit. The beds were especially comfortable, which made a big difference after long days out exploring.The location was ideal. Close to town and all the main attractions, yet quiet and private. We even saw deer in the yard each day, which made the experience feel even more special.The host provided a detailed binder with helpful info about the house, local restaurants, and nearby sights. It was a thoughtful touch that helped us find a few hidden gems we might have otherwise missed.Overall, we truly enjoyed our time here and would definitely stay again. Highly recommend.
We really enjoyed this house because you could truly get away from it all! No neighbors, city lights, road traffic! We saw deer everyday, enjoyed the stars and being right in the beautiful pine trees that are numerous! The house was clean and very roomy. We enjoyed fixing meals and watching movies as a family after a day of sight seeing. Michael was very good to work with us after we had booked and had to move our days because of a funeral. We really appreciate his down-to-earth manner in helping and communicating with us. We felt safe and had a really enjoyable stay at this house!
This house is a perfect base camp for exploring the Black Hills or for just spending time with extended family. The owners provided great instructions and speedy communication. The house matched the pictures exactly and was clean and comfortable with plenty of space and amenities. We would love to stay here again. The only caveat I would add is if you are arriving after dark (like we did), the home is near the back of the property. Follow the driveway past the first two buildings. We probably missed that in the instructions, and it took a minute to figure out the driveway/road continued on to the main house. This is one of the top rentals I’ve stayed in and would recommend it to family and friends.
Host communicated accurately. House was clean and comfortable for the 9 of us. Very quiet and our grandkids liked watching the chipmunks and deer. Perfect location! I would certainly recommend.
