Nestled behind a creek, this house was the perfect spot to act as our base camp during out stay. Close to many attractions and amenities, yet offered solice at the end of a long day. Property is clean and inviting, our family felt right at home. Host was very nice and welcoming. Will book again if ever in the area!

South Dakota Rodeo
Our family made a two day stop on our way out west. This property is close to many sites. We visited Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse and Custard State Park. Our host gave us several great recommendations. I would love to come back some day and hear stories about the rodeo!

Quiet and Peaceful
The location was secluded but also very a quick drive to the local attractions. Each day, we left early and came back late. It was the perfect spot to rest and rejuvenate for the next day’s adventure.

Convenient Location to everything!
Had a great time. House is centrally located to almost anywhere you want to go, but is private and quiet. Kelli was wonderful and responded to all questions quickly. The bottom floor is mostly underground, so if it snells musty, there is a dehumidifier on the front porch. Totally fine within a few hours of running it. Would definitely stay here again if we are ever in the area!

Even better than we expected.
It was completely private. And such a central location to where we had planned to visit. There were 6 adults and we had plenty of room. Our son-in-law brought his high powered binoculars and he was excited to see some deer. We awoke several mornings to turkey going through the property. We all felt very much at home.

Quaint and Comfortable
My family wanted a cozy place that was secluded and private, while still being close enough to attractions that we could stay and relax or spontaneously go on adventures. This house, surrounded by trees, next to a little creek was delightful. My children played in the water, while we sat on the upstairs porch with coffee in hand. The landlady gave excellent suggestions for activities. The environment even inspired a trip to the Deadwood rodeo. We left satisfied and grateful for our stay.

Peaceful Rustic Retreat
Kelli's place was in an ideal location for exploring the Black Hills and Badlands. She provided great recommendations as well, which we took advantage of. It is close to groceries, gas, and a good pizza place. Rapid City is close by with bigger stores etc. The home itself is set in a peaceful area with a nearby creek and wildlife. There was plenty of space for 4 adults and 3 children, and we especially enjoyed the use of the porch and outdoor space and grill. This is a lived-in farmhouse with personal touches, adding to its character and charm. Great for any person who loves horses/rodeo themes. The kitchen is adequately equipped, though it is without a dishwasher. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our week in the Black Hills. There is so much to see and do, and Kelli's home was a fantastic base.

Very nice, quiet place centrally located to some wonderful South Dakota attractions. Great scenery from the back yard looking towards Custer state park. Saw wildlife every evening. House had everything we could possibly need. Close to Rapid city, Badlands, Custer state park, Mount Rushmore and so much more. Host Kelli stayed in good contact and gave us great recommendations for surrounding places to go and see.
