Nice house. Nice area
The house was nice. It worked well for us. Location was good. I wish it would have been a little more private but I knew there was a possibility the owners would be staying in the studio attached to the garage. I also would have liked to park in the garage but due to bookshelves in there my vehicle wouldn’t fit but there wasn’t any bad weather so it all worked out.

Quiet, Well-equipped home, close to many SD attractions
Our family of four loved how central the home was. It's quiet, with deer visiting the yard frequently. It's close to restaurants, downtown, a grocery store (for a repreave from eating out), trail heads, and a 20-40 minutes (or less) commute to many of the must-see attractions in SD. It was a great fit for our family and it had all we needed to be our home-base while we were on vacation for the week!

Did not like only Roku TV. Could not find any live local channels for info and weather. Could not watch live sports games. Hot water in kitchen barely works. Beds were hard for out taste. Owner was friendly and gave us tips on where to eat or visit in area.

SD trip
House was adequate except no air conditioning in bedrooms. Paper towels were hung as curtains on front door. Discrepancies in check in times as well as door code and parking. Owner stays in apartment behind garage. 1/2 of Garage was supposed to be available for use but was full.
South Dakota is beautiful.

Good central location in the Black Hills
This is a nice place, tucked in by a wonderful trail and the local football field. Very quiet area and lots of wildlife. A central location for exploring both the north and south ends of the Black Hills. The house had all the amenities we needed and just enough room for a couple and a dog.

Great location in the Black Hills
Great location, next to a nature trail, a small river stream, and the school football field/track. lots of wildlife running nearby (deer, rabbits, lots of birds). We would go for a walk on the trail and school track in the mornings. Ken, the owner, stayed onsite during our stay,was very helpful and quick to respond. Had no issues and would love to stay again.

Comfy in the Black Hills
My husband and I enjoyed our stay in this property so much. We want to come back! The beds were super comfy. The weather fluctuated during our stay and it was easy to adjust the heating/cooling in accordance with the rules. It was easy to reach out to the owners when we needed help. The downtown area is truly within walking distance. And the people are genuine and kind. There are restaurants that stay open late, which helped when we came back from sight-seeing all day. Rapid City, Mt. Rushmore, and the Crazy Horse Memorial are quite close. This property had everything we needed and then some. My husband and I enjoyed everything about it.

Family Roadtrip
This was a great base for our family weekend in the black hills. It was centrally located for everything we wanted to do. Stayed with my partner, our two dogs, my parents and three nieces. The sofa is a sleeper sofa that was a good spot for the kiddos to sleep.
We really enjoyed the large deck and sitting peacefully outside by the flowing creek, watching the deer, butterflies and birds.
Interior space was a little cramped for a group of our size but that didn’t much matter as we spent most of our time exploring the area.
We were able to meet the property owners and learn more about the area and they shared their suggestions, Custer State Park is a can’t miss.
