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!

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!

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!

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.

Easter Stay

We had a lovely stay at this property! The kitchen was well stocked for us to prepare our Easter meal. We enjoyed the historicalness of the home and neighborhood! We had our two dogs with us as well and the fenced yard was perfect! The weather was beautiful and we were able to enjoy the outdoor furniture also! Would definitely stay at this property again on our return visits to Rapid City!

Great place!

We loved our time spent in Rapid City! The house is charming - it is an older style, but very comfortable. The kitchen is modern and well-stocked. Centrally located to see Mnt Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Wind Cave NP, Devils Tower, etc.The yard does need some attention (especially at the front). An hour with a weedwacker would make a world of difference!

Wonderful Historic home

This is a fantastic home in an extremely convenient part of Western South Dakota. While staying here we visited Devils Tower in Wyoming all the way to Rushmore and Custer State Park and the Badlands. All of these were short day trips from our home base in this historic house. We prepared most of our evening meals in this well appointed kitchen. We particularly enjoyed the vintage way this house is decorated. All in all an A+ to this VRBO

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.

Perfect!!

First of all, the house is in a perfect location, close to downtown and close to hiking trails in the Black Hills! If you like to walk, we walked downtown, and I also walked from the house to the hiking trails. The hiking trails offer gorgeous views, beautiful scenery and very peaceful. Downtown has an abundance of history, food, beverages, music and loads of fun 🤩 This wonderful historic home is beautiful inside and outside with plenty of seating, comfy beds, stocked kitchen and let’s not forget the opportunity to grill outside! I highly recommend this stunning home! Great location to visit the black hills!

Weekend getaway at a craftsman bungalow

I love old houses but am a total chicken when it comes to owning one as the idea of maintaining one of these properties intimidates me. I also travel for work, so the last thing I want to do is stay in a hotel for my well deserved vacation. My family and I so enjoyed the charm of this home. A blizzard came in during our stay, and we were cozy and warm, soaking in the clawfoot bathtubs, hanging out on the couches and the recliner watching TV, drinking tea, coffee, and hot chocolate. And I didn't have to clean or repair a single thing! This home is utterly charming and the neighborhood is adorable, just blocks from downtown Rapid City.
