This house became a pandemic project in 2020, but now, most of my year is spent traveling or on the East side of South Dakota. My mission is for this home to give the gift of "hygge" to other travelers like me :) The house is on the main road that takes you up to Mt. Rushmore, Keystone, Custer, and Crazy Horse - and I have great local tips to take you off the tourist-beaten path in my guest book! Conveniently located next to corner pantry, Walgreens, Scooters, and other shops within short walking distance. Downtown is a 5-minute drive away. Mount Rushmore is approximately a 20-minute drive from the house and other tourist attractions in the hills nearby. The house accommodates several cars in the back driveway, or a large vehicle w/ trailer. Two queen bedrooms & one bathroom w/ tub and shower. The living room has a couch if you have 5 guests. Backyard with patio (grill & charcoal provided) and front yard with porch swing to enjoy the warm summer months. A full kitchen with essential cooking items and modern appliances to enjoy, plus a washer & dryer for complimentary guest use.

The 2 bedrooms had Queen sizes beds. The bathroom was adequate. I told Emma she needs new pots and pans and should consider new coffee cups too. The WiFi was glitching and Emma fixed it asap. We enjoyed our stay. The house is near everything and really affordable. The neighborhood is sketchy, but we locked the all the doors and everything was fine. I would stay here again. ##### Denise P.

Aug 17, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy Disliked: Location #### Cute place, questionable location The house was very cute and they did a good job sprucing up the house for the condition it was in. The house is on the backside of a gas station but there’s a good concrete wall that you don’t see it. The neighborhood isn’t the most comfortable and you need to keep an eye on the neighbors dog as it was consistently barking and on the edge of jumping the fence. Although the security of the location is questionable, it is close to many attractions in rapid city. ##### Hunter L. Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Tracy B. Jul 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy Disliked: Check-in #### Rapid City The house was not ready when we arrived. No bed linens until I washed them, they were in the washer. After driving 9 hours I had to do laundry and make beds. Owner kept adjusting the thermostat, when we left for the day and came back she had turned it up remotely, so we came back to a hot house. The fenced in front yard was not accessible due to new sidewalks being put in, lots of construction noise and city workers working on putting the fence back up. Young man showed up to mow and weed eat back yard, he only did half and left. 5-6 packages were delivered that we had to bring in and find room for. Amazon delivery’s always get the dogs wound up…the deliveries should have been sent to owners home so she could deal with them. Overall I felt like it was a “working” vacation. The home was very nice and conveniently located and had many extras such as bubble baths, soaking salts, coffee, laundry soap…. We managed but would have rather not been disturbed with daily deliveries, laundry, front yard construction, mowing, and temperature control. ##### Tracy B. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Susan C. Jul 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, location Disliked: Check-in, communication #### Would NOT recommend Let’s start with the positive. Location, location, location. There was plenty to do and most things were fairly close. The property was definitely clean. To the point of smelling like bleach when we walked in. But that’s probably because of the standing puddles of water still on the floors that I had to clean up to avoid slipping. So I’m obviously done with the positive. Now to the reasons I would NOT recommend this property. We mostly travel using VRBO. This is by far our worst experience to date. The host was completely unreachable and uncommunicative until we contacted VRBO directly and they were threatened with fees reversal. When we arrived nearly 3 hours after our scheduled check in time people were still there, inside the house. I was told they were cleaning still so we had to wait outside for them to finish. That was my first attempt at contacting the owner with no response. The porch steps were completely overgrown with weeds, we were unsure how to lock the door to secure the property so we could get dinner. Again tried to contact the owner and this time the secondary contact with no response. Once VRBO finally got them to respond and the closest thing we got to an apology for the lack of communication was an I’m sorry BUT. Which is no apology really. They were far more interested in making excuses than in making anything right. Their solution was to CANCEL our stay. Then make more excuses when we declined. ##### Susan C.
