We absolutely loved this vrbo! It was in a great spot where activities were close to drive to! Everything was so clean and put together. We will be staying here again in the future.
This was the perfect place to stay for a little getaway in Rapid City. Less than a mile downtown! The place has great personal touches that made it feel like home. The kitchen was well stocked with all of the cooking necessities.
We loved all the extra special touches at this property. Had everything we needed. Super clean and a central location. Will definitely stay here again. Host Tarah was easily assessable via text and phone to answer any questions. Thanks for a great visit!!
We stayed 4 nights here in September and greatly enjoyed our stay.
The apartment is very nicely decorated and has everything you would expect and much more!
The kitchen and bathroom are clean and updated with soft linens and towels just a very comfortable place to stay! Thank you Tarah
This property came as advertised. Very clean and tidy. All expected amenities were present. The reservoir of filtered water in the fridge was a nice touch — Rapids water isn’t very tasty otherwise.
What an adorable little place. CLEAN. Decorated with style. Comfortable! The only down fall, parking & the walk in with luggage. However, the apartment makes up for it. Would stay again! Ohhhh… also! THE SHOWER 💜 that was lovely.
