The host contact was amazing, the property was very clean and well updated and maintained. We stayed there as a base for exploration ng around the Black Hills and was a great spot and easy to get out of the city from.

Thank you. We are very glad you enjoyed your stay.
We had a great stay at this property, it had everything we needed and then some. The location was close to everything we wanted to do and see and the house was clean and comfortable. Would highly recommend!
So thankful I found this house for our trip to SD! Close to Mount Rushmore and the Badlands National Park! House had everything we needed and was very clean! Kids loved playing in the yard as well!
Great place to stay. The place had everything I expected it to have and was very clean. It was nice to have a fenced yard that our Boston Terrier could run around in. We loved walking to the park in the evenings. We would absolutely stay there again if in the Rapid City area!
Property was as described, very clean, great location in western part of rapids city. Conveniently located near grocery stores and several great dining options. Served as a great home base for us to tour Badlands, Custer State Park, Spearfish Scenic Byway and Devils Tower.
It was just as described, easy to navigate to all the surrounding attractions. Not far from walmart for groceries and easy to find our way back to. Would definitely stay here again. Many nice perks were plenty of dishwashing supplies, ice trays to make ice, extra trash bags, several kitchen and bath towels!
We’ll set up, cozy and clean. Location was great. However, we were a little surprised that there were tenants living below and sharing the yard with dogs.

From the owner: ''Hello. The information concerning the apartment is listed in the pre-stay information.I hope all was well with your visit''
Very nice property. Really great location to stay in RC and easy to get to tge Balck Hills and all the sights.Nice deck. Blackstone, Smoker, and Grill. Everything worked well. The bathroom was good. Nice shower.The beds were very comfortable. Highly recommend.
The house was clean and not cluttered. Beds were comfy. We had everything we needed and communication with the property person was excellent. Would definitely stay here again.
From the check in to the check out our stay was excellent! Very clean, comfy, well stocked and cozy! Not a detail left out. Even down to extra toiletries, q-tips, cotton balls and makeup removers. A definite 5 star VRBO! Will stay again for sure.
The place was nice. We didn’t know it would be shared with someone renting part of the property, didn’t really like that.

From the owner: Hi Jennifer, we're glad to hear you found the place nice, but we're sorry that the shared aspect of the property wasn't what you expected. The listing does mention that there is another apartment on-site to ensure transparency for our guests. We're sorry this detail was missed when making your booking and that it caught you off guard.
The place was very clean. Lots of kitchen amenities. It was great to find a place for our dogs!
It would be better if there would have been a top bed cushion for the barnwood bedroom, the bed was very hard. Extra pillows would also be great. None of the tv remotes worked in the bedrooms.
However, I would recommend staying here.

Hi Michele, thanks for taking the time to review your stay. After reading your feedback, the homeowner wanted to share the following:
- Thank you for your feedback regarding the amenities in the kitchen and the home's cleanliness. We are always on the lookout for new kitchen gadgets to enhance our guests' experience.
- Regarding the beds, there are two queen beds with different types of mattresses and mattress toppers. One is innerspring, and one is memory foam. We wish you had reached out to us, as we would've been very willing to drop an extra topper if needed since comfort is subjective and can vary from person to person
- As for the televisions, it appears that they were not plugged in during your stay, which could explain why the remotes did not work. This is something we will take into consideration and ensure that all devices are properly set up for future guests.
- Additionally, we understand that pillow density is a personal preference, and we will definitely consider purchasing additional bed pillows to accommodate various guest preferences.
Thank you again for sharing your feedback with us. We value your input and will strive to improve our guests' experience based on your suggestions.
The minute we walked in the door, we knew this home was a perfect fit for us. We brought 3 of our grandkids with us and they were very comfortable as we were. Property was immaculate, kitchen well stocked with pots and pans, dinner and drink ware, silverware, seasonings, etc. Beds were comfy. Quiet neighborhood that’s close to sites and activities. We highly recommend this property if your vacationing in western South Dakota! If you have pets this property is a perfect place for them as well!! We couldn’t be more pleased.
Overall, the rental is worth the money. I will say the mattresses are needing to be replaced but everything was clean and as very well set up. They go above to make sure the rental has everything you might need.
The manager was delayed getting back to us on a couple questions but this was during the start of Sturgis.

Convenient and Clean
The home was the perfect size for us. The home was clean and overall a great place for us. However, when I rented the home for our stay, there was no mention that there was an apartment in the basement. This information was conveyed after we had paid the non-refundable fee for the home. It was hard for me to be comfortable in the home after finding this out because I was constantly concerned about us making noise. I believe it would benefit everyone if you included this information in the home rental information. That way no one is "surprised " by this after the fact.
