Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We're delighted that you found our property clean and well-stocked, making your weekend stay comfortable and convenient. We'd love to welcome you back for another visit!
The space was cute and the host is very responsive. They were generous with paper goods in the unit which seems rare these days. The space is bright and cheerful. We found the location really good for traveling to Mt. Rushmore, Badlands, Custer State Park, Crazy Horse Monument, and even Devils Tower. I would recommend this house.

My wife and I enjoyed our stay. Will definitely stay again when in the area. We saw a few post about noise levels of passing vehicles due to location but we did not have any issues with that.

Thank you so much for the wonderful 10/10 review! We're thrilled you and your wife enjoyed your stay and are planning to return. We appreciate you taking the time to share your positive experience, and we look forward to welcoming you back soon!
Fantastic location and extremely clean and inviting. Not to mention our host was outstanding. If you’re looking for a great jumping point for adventure this property is perfect!
It was a great place to stay, with easy access to everything we needed. Could easily walk to several places. Kids enjoyed it, plenty of space and nice amenities. Would stay again if we are back there.
Great place to stay for location to attractions in area.
This was a great place for our group of 4 adults. The location was excellent except for the busy street. If we were ever in the area again we would welcome the opportunity to stay again.
Check-in and-out went smoothly. Modern kitchen; well stocked. Open concept with ample and comfortable furniture. We’d prefer a more secluded/remote location with less road noise/busy street; however, it provides a central location to surrounding attractions from Devils Tower to the Badlands.
This property is a great choice for a stay in the Black Hills with its central location—easy interstate access and close to grocery stores if you plan on cooking and or many restaurants nearby if you choose not to cook.
It was right at the end of town. It was a very nice house, very comfortable It had everything we needed It was close to everything. We had a great stay, would stay there again.
The house was perfect for our family vacation to Mount Rushmore and the Black Hills. It was spotless, well-maintained, and well-stocked with all the necessities. We love the house's open floor plan, with the kitchen, dining room, and living room open to each other and plenty of seating. The house is centrally located for all the attractions we wanted to see. We will book this house for future vacations.
My wife and I and our assistant coach (we are USA swim coaches) loved our stay here during our 3 day meet. The house is awesome (we were on the second floor) and has a great outdoor patio, nice mountain views and open kitchen/great room concept and even a fireplace. All the conveniences and close to anywhere you need to go in Rapid City. Beds were comfortable and had everything else we needed. Will stay here again if we swim here next year!
Thanks for a great stay.

Everything was perfect except the street noise. The house is located on the corner of a busy street. The location is central to everything. The street noise is the only downfall
Our group of friends enjoyed this home so much. We stayed in both the upstairs and downstairs units and had plenty of space throughout with each bedroom having their own private bathroom (which is a requirement for our vacations together). From the central location, paved roads and garage space (another must for us), to being able to check in early upon request, I cannot say enough good things about our experience! We cannot wait until our next vacation in South Dakota and Would not hesitate to stay here again. Thank you again Robert & Jennifer for the great accommodations and We will be back in touch!

Very nice home!
The home is very nice and extremely clean! The living area is large and very nicely decorated.
The home is off a busy street and a bit noisy. I would recommend bringing a fan or white noise machine. The upper unit does have a lot of steps to climb if that’s a concern.
Overall a great place to stay!
Great place. Cool modern design. Extremely clean. Easy in and out. Well equipped. Others mention road noise but we didn’t think it was a big deal. It’s on a road but it’s not an interstate or anything like that. Just normal city stuff. We will stay here again.
