About this property

Quiet Bungalow in the Hills

Entire place to yourself! This property is brand new, located in picturesque setting. It’s truly a hidden treasure....
Take a drive down Ghost Canyon Road where you can take a hiking trail. Take a left onto Playhouse Rd where you’ll find the perfect hike to an abandoned gold mining town of Spokane. Lakota Lake, Center Lake and Bismarck Lake are also very close! Use one of our kayaks and pull out a big Rainbow Trout!
This place was built for you! We want our guests to enjoy our little peace of heaven.

1 queen bed in main bedroom and a comfortable futon in the living area.

Parking spot for guests is in front of white door and tree with birdhouse.

May vacation in Black Hilss/Badlands

this is a quiet, comfortable place with a nice view from the spacious deck of fields, horses, trees and hills. A perfect spot from which to launch to the Black Hills and Badlands. The owners are helpful and responsive. We would definitely stay there again.

Nice Quiet Loft

Paula and Steve were great hosts, very welcoming and full of great information about the area. If you need anything they are next door. Nice clean place just far enough from the bustle to be quiet, but close enough to see everything that you want to.

Lovely but not for everyone

There are lots of reasons to like this location, it’s in a quiet spot and is perfectly located to the area’s many attractions. Paula is also very responsive, helpful and a wealth of knowledge on the area. The bungalow is located above the garage with a lovely view from the deck. If you are comfortable with a mini refrigerator (no freezer) and hot plate for a stove (no oven) and with 19 wooden steps-to access the unit then you won’t have any trouble.

Not what we expected.

Air conditioning was not working right. And the stairs were a little too much.

Much need reset

The host Steve and Paula(the hosts) where very welcoming and helpful for suggestions of things in the area. The place was a very nice 1 bedroom, living room with kitchen bungalow style off way from the house atop the work shop. With a lovely patio, we enjoyed at nights with a glass of wine/beer. We where happily with in 30 mins to just over an hour drive of everything possibly we where wanting to do. Mount Rushmore, Crazy horse, Rapid city, Custer State Park, Black Hills state park, Wind Cave state park and the BadLands National state park.

Short Side Trip to Black Hills area - Awesome Hosts!

Highly enjoyed this nice little gem on the east side of the Black Hills area in a beautiful rolling hills neighbourhood! The hosts were so kind and friendly and gave awesome suggestions for day trips. Easy access time Custer State Park, Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse and the Needles scenic drive. Rapid City is only 30 minutes away. Pictures on-line don’t do the bungalow justice! Nicely decorated and contemporary. Sitting in the deck at night and looking at the stars was amazing. The bungalow was spacious For the two of us and private. If ever back in the area, we will stay here again in a heartbeat!

Host profile image
Hi!
My name is Paula and I am a Black Hills native, living here my entire life. Some of my sweetest memories were living in Custer State Park and working 3 summers at the State Game Lodge. I had a dream of once living on Ghost Canyon Rd and now live only miles away. Where we live is stunning and we can’t wait to share it with you!

Why they chose this property

Peaceful-Quiet-Charming!
That’s all I need to say, take in the pine smell during the day and star gaze at night. It doesn’t get any better!
