This place had it all - cleanliness, comfort and location. We were within walking distance of downtown restaurants, coffee shops and a grocery store. We could easily drive to several hiking areas and took a driving tour through parts of the Black Hills. We stayed for 5 nights and felt like we could have stayed longer.

Thank you for the wonderful review! We're so glad you found our place clean and comfortable. Many have discovered the location to be a great fit for exploring downtown restaurants, coffee shops, and the Black Hills. We also love it for the proximity to many outdoor activities, especially hiking. We are happy five nights gave you just enough time to settle in and enjoy it all.

This is a great house. It was perfect for my son's and I. The house was clean, the beds were very comfortable, and it was a great location. The house was very cozy yet roomy enough for us to have our personal space. The check in and out process was very simple. It was a great location for a walk downtown Rapid City or a day at the various monuments and National parks.

Our group of six had a wonderful stay and found the property very spacious, with plenty of room and bathrooms to comfortably accommodate everyone. The Pros: The house is very roomy and features very comfortable beds, an abundance of fresh towels, and a fully stocked kitchen with every item you could need. It is located in a quiet neighborhood that is centrally located to many local attractions. The Cons: The only minor downsides were related to temperature and bathroom showers. The upstairs bedrooms stayed a bit warm, and lowering the AC made the downstairs very cold while the upstairs remained warm. Additionally, only two of the three bathrooms have showers. The third features a beautiful, historic clawfoot tub; while it looks pretty, it is a bit impractical for daily use as there is no shelf space to keep your shampoo and soaps handy.

We're so glad your group of six enjoyed the space, the comfortable beds, the fully stocked kitchen, and the quiet, central location. On the temperature balance between floors, it helps to close the large floor vents in the living room, and the house often cools off enough in the evening to shut off the A/C and open the windows. As for the clawfoot tub, we understand the lack of shelf space is a bit inconvenient, and we'll consider adding a shelf. Thank you for the thoughtful feedback.

This was a great place where we spent 4 nights. We loved the proximity to downtown where there was lots of restaurants and shopping and events at the Main Street Square. The house was perfect for our family with plenty of space. It is such a charming house with all the modern amenities you could need. There were a couple great areas outside to hang out and where we enjoyed morning coffee. Overall perfect stay!

We loved spacious historic home with modern amenities and homey feel situated in Rapid City's historic distric just off of downtown. Great for our 6 year old daughter near dinosaur park, and our dog with nice venced backyard deck and patio area. We enjoyed both Rapid City and then used it as a jumping off point for day trips to the black hills atteactions. Highly reccomend for famil vacations to Rapid City Vlack Hills area! We loved it!

Great Vacation

We enjoyed staying in this historic home. We walked to restaurants and the bagel shop. We took day trips to visit the Black Hills and national parks/monuments. We cooked dinner at the house each night. It was well-stocked with what we needed. We ate dinner on the deck most nights. Would recommend!

Thank you for this space. We loved the charm and especially how everyone could spread out inside and out side. The separation of sleeping arrangements were perfect for our family. The fenced in yard with games was a perfect spot for morning coffee and our furry family to spread out!

Awesome location in rapid city. Clean safe neighborhood

It was a great location. Comfortable stay. Really cool house and really clean. All the amenities needed. (Wish there was a hairdryer- I forgot to ask and forgot to mention it- but that would be a big perk). Especially loved that there were non toxic laundry supplies. It was close to everything and we loved it. Would stay again if we visit the area.

Great Home in the Beautiful Historic District of Rapid City

This home was fabulous. It had lots of room for gathering and hanging out. It was very well furnished and comfy. The kitchen was great for fixing our Thanksgiving prime rib. The location is nicely centralized and easy to get to downtown and other attractions. We had great communication with the owner and enjoyed getting a chance to meet with him. I highly recommend this place and will stay here again on our next trip to the Black Hills/Rapid City.
