Comfortable Stay

The house was perfect for the location. The beds were very comfortable, the air conditioning worked well, and it was great to sit on the patio at the end of the night.

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!

Fantastic location

Kelli was so kind asking if we needed anything during our stay. The upstairs was welcoming and appears recently updated. The furniture was comfortable and the deck in the mornings and evenings was perfect to wind down and read and recover after going all day to the impressive parks and activities in this corner of South Dakota. We had wild turkey visitors in the mornings and evenings as well. The downstairs seemed to be work in progress. The stairs could be a tripping hazard due to the treads curling up on all edges. I would recommend this rental as an ideal home base for many activities and excursions. Thank you for sharing your home, Kelli.

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!

Beautiful Home and Property

When I booked this I did not realize how beautiful the house and property would be. The house fit all of my family perfectly, everyone had the privacy they needed. Walking around the property was wonderful. We enjoyed the creek, the cows and horses. Sitting and eating breakfast outside with the sunshine was so nice. The bbq was great to use, especially after the long touring days of South Dakota. My 14 year old daughter was in awe of the beauty of the property and nature all around. Kelli the owner was very responsive to messages and gave great guidance of places to go. If I do come and visit the area again I would stay at this property again. I definitely recommend booking this property.

A great tripod of light

We enjoyed our stay so much. The property owner gave us the best information on what to see and where to go. The property does have cows, turkeys, which we enjoyed as we are from the city I would stay again if we decide to come again with our grandchildren.

This house was truly a home away from home. So much character and family pictures that made the connection with the home owner very special. The house location made it super simple to navigate to all the main attractions. We couldn't have been more pleased with the house, host, and location. After a day seeing the sites we would come home and see wild turkeys in the front yard and many deer in the field behind the house. So awesome about everything. :)

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.
