Rural neighborhood with large acre lots adjacent to Black Hills National Forest

Guests will have full access to the house and the 38 acres of property with the exception of the two structures (workshop and storage barn).

Spacious 3 bedroom and 3.5 bath house with full sized living and dining areas which include seating for 10, foosball and air hockey tables and game table to play cards or board games.

Secluded house surrounded by pines, hills and rolling fields, but centrally located to access all of the major attractions from Rapid City to Mount Rushmore and Custer Park.

Number one amenity from our reviews? The master bedroom shower - walk-in and multiple heads that shower the entire body at once!

Looking to sit and grill on the deck and watch the local wildlife (5-6 deer, wild turkeys, etc.) graze on the property? Got that.
Looking to sit in the living room and enjoy views of pine trees, South Dakota skies, while watching a movie and drinking beer/wine/etc.? Got that too!
Looking to talk a short walk and watch amazing sunsets off to the west on the edge of your own personal forest or from top of the hill adjacent to the south? Maybe catch a glimpse of George Washington on Mount Rushmore all lit up? Got you covered!
Looking to be almost totally secluded without a neighbors house closer than 500 feet? Got that.
Looking to stargaze at night with virtually zero light pollution? We've... got... that!
Looking to head into Rapid City and grab a world famous ice cream treat at Armadillo's? A quick drive away!
Looking to head to Mount Rushmore, Custer State Park, Rushmore Adventure Park, Bear County USA, Reptile Gardens, Prairie Berry Winery, and many more attractions all within 15-20 minutes? Right in the middle of all of that!
Looking to access all the Black Hills has to offer from your secluded paradise while still being within 3 minutes of major SD highways? Got that too.

This home is proudly managed by Rapid City residents. We believe in providing personal attention and a local's touch to ensure you have a wonderful experience.

We loved our stay. This was the first rental we've been at that had nice pots and pans and sharp knives. Our bed was very comfortable. I'm not a fan of memory foam beds and that was in the master. The location was great and pretty secluded. The hosts were very quick with all communication.

Perfect house for visiting the badlands
10 / 10Outstanding·Sep 2025
This house is a perfect base camp for exploring the Black Hills or for just spending time with extended family. The owners provided great instructions and speedy communication. The house matched the pictures exactly and was clean and comfortable with plenty of space and amenities. We would love to stay here again. The only caveat I would add is if you are arriving after dark (like we did), the home is near the back of the property. Follow the driveway past the first two buildings. We probably missed that in the instructions, and it took a minute to figure out the driveway/road continued on to the main house. This is one of the top rentals I’ve stayed in and would recommend it to family and friends.

We had a fantastic stay at this property! The home was beautiful, very clean, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing visit. The beds were especially comfortable, which made a big difference after long days out exploring.The location was ideal. Close to town and all the main attractions, yet quiet and private. We even saw deer in the yard each day, which made the experience feel even more special.The host provided a detailed binder with helpful info about the house, local restaurants, and nearby sights. It was a thoughtful touch that helped us find a few hidden gems we might have otherwise missed.Overall, we truly enjoyed our time here and would definitely stay again. Highly recommend.
