Beautiful house and great location!

We had a great stay at this cozy 2-bedroom home in Keystone, South Dakota. The house was newly remodeled, clean, super cute, and had everything we needed. The beds were comfy and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. The location was perfect — just minutes from Mount Rushmore, the 1880 Train, downtown Keystone, Custer State Park, and an easy drive to Rapid City. It’s in a friendly neighborhood and was very easy to find.The host was responsive and helpful with any questions we had. No complaints at all!We’d definitely stay here again if we’re back in the area!
