About this property

Spacious home with Hot Tub, bikes, fire pit, pool table and more!!

Home in the Hills II is an executive style and the second of our exclusively built vacation homes. The home is in a unique Hill City neighborhood. High above and overlooking the scenic valley below. Here you will see Newton Creek and find easy access to the center point of the 100 - mile Mickelson bike and hiking trail. Forest Service land surrounds this valley, which hosts many deer and wildlife for your viewing. Easy access to some great hiking and scenery of the great black hills. Fishing in Minor and Major lakes. Low light rules allow some fantastic viewing of the night stars – the big dipper is right off the back deck!

The central Hill City location allows you a short trip to access the most attractive and historic sites the Black Hills have to offer. Rapid City and the international airport is 30 minutes . Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse monument and Sylvan lake are a short 15 minute drive. Black Elk Mountain - highest SD location - is just outside of Hill City. Hill City also offers some unique shopping eateries and yes the 1880 train which moves people from the depot in Hill City up the mountain to Keystone where the entire day can be spent touring the attractions.

Inside this 3300 square foot home you and family will find 5 bedrooms, three full baths and powder room off of the kitchen - all with towels, hand soap and yes the hair dryer. Upper level has three bedrooms. Master suite with king bed and spacious bath with shower and soaking tub. Two additional bedrooms with queen beds and a full bath.

The kitchen is large with ample counter space and is fully stocked with all utensils, cookware, coffee pot and slow cooker. You will find the plan very open with the great room and its fireplace just beyond the kitchen island. The great room has large windows, offering great views of the valley and meadows below. Plenty of seating, a large television and fireplace for those chilly evenings.
Dinning with large table for 8 is just off the kitchen - seating for 4 more at the Kitchen Island. The large covered deck is accessed from the dining or master bedroom and is great for some morning sun, relaxing and evening cooking on the gas grill.

Mud room with washer, dryer and 1/2 bath are just off of the large garage. In the garage you will have a selection of bikes, games and yes a small side by side for your use.

The lower level is a walk out to large, covered patio and hot tub! The family room is on this level with pool, foosball tables and games. There is a kitchenette/wet bar and 2 additional bedrooms with a full bath, just beyond the family room. Bedrooms have Queen bed and 2 full/twin bunks. You will find a few toys for the little ones in bedroom closet!

Come and stay in this Black Hills home, which was built - just for you!

Very relaxing and peaceful stay. Our favorite was the hot tub with the nice view. Kitchen had all the utensils needed for meals. Relaxing by the fireplace was nice. Our family enjoyed a bonfire outside, all the stars was incredible. Would absolutely stay again.

The house is beautiful and has a perfect location for sightseeing in South Dakota. It’s the perfect house for a large family or two couples with children. Nice amenities and there is a great walking trail in the neighborhood. My family was in Hill City for a wedding and it was very close to the wedding venue.

Relaxing family getaway!

We had a relaxing five days with our family staying in this home. It is close enough that our adult children could walk into Hill City every day to the coffee shop and our grandchildren loved just spending time at the house hanging out and watching for deer. Chuck is the perfect host, so much so that this was the third time we have booked his homes, and we have already booked for next year!

This house was the perfect location for our family to gather. Not a detail was missed in making our trip stress free and fun! Pack and play, high chair, and kids dinnerware were unexpected conveniences that were super helpful! The views from the deck are breathtaking.

This place had EVERYTHING! Plenty of rooms, fun games for kids, phenomenal deck, lots of towels, spices to cook with, wonderfully stocked kitchen....Seriously, this is the best vacation rental we have ever stayed in. It is close to everything we like to do in the Black Hills. And if you don't like to get out and adventure you can enjoy your time in this amazing house. Just being there is a vacation in itself.

A wonderful experience

The house was amazing. It was better than advertised and perfect for our family of 11. Floyd was amazing to work with and extremely responsive. Hill City is, in my opinion, the perfect place to stay if you are planning to take in all of the landmarks the Black Hills has to offer. I would stay At this property again in a heartbeat.

Perfect location!

The location and view would be hard to beat! As cyclists, the location on the Mickelson trail is perfect. The deck is lovely any time of the day, and the home was very clean, very well stocked, and the owners were welcoming and prompt. From greeting us and showing us around the property, to dropping off dry wood for a campfire, they were just a text away. We would highly recommend this VRBO, and would definitely stay again!

Great location, house, and neighborhood

We loved our stay. This Hill City house was as pictured. It was a new, beautiful large home with great views. We all enjoyed our stay. The Mickelson trail runs right thru the neighborhood so we often took walks, and rode bikes, on the trail. Also, you’re a 2-minute drive to Hill City’s shops and restaurants, plus close to Mount Rushmore, etc. We’d definitely stay here again!

Beautiful and Accessible

We came back for year two at this beautiful property with our children and their families. The home has a great Black Hills view, but within minutes of groceries, entertainment, and unique shopping. Besides all that, it's next to the Mickelson Trail! We all get a comfortable bed in a home with a kitchen where we can treat the group with food we love to prepare and serve. We already booked for next year!

About the host

Hosted by Floyd (Chuck) Savageau

Host profile image
We are lifelong residents of Rapid City, SD and the Black Hill area. We know the area well and we absolutely love it! We have frequented the local wineries, hiked the trails, fished the streams/lakes and visited the many local attractions all around the Black Hills.

Why they chose this property

This home was built for us to share the beauty of the Black Hills with visitors to the area. The location is one of a kind! To the North the home is surrounded by National Forest Service Land so the view will always be protected and preserved. Check the reviews of our Home in the Hills listing...#798508 - its right next door!

What makes this property unique

The home has a creek side view from the upper level and the valley below has a small creek winding though it. The deer are ever present and entertaining. I have personally grabbed a rod and landed a trout within minutes in Major Lake which you can see from the patio. The Mickelson Trail lies just beyond the creek which is easily accessible to bikers, joggers or someone looking for a nice easy stroll. The trail is 109 miles long and goes through Mt. Rushmore, Deadwood and much more! This home has all of the views and serenity of the Black Hills in its backyard. Despite it's close vicinity to Hill City you are out of site and have the feeling of being in the heart of the hills.
