Great location but the parking is limited based on other units adjacent, glad we didn't bring our side by side trailer as it would not fit in the parking available with the adjacent unit cars and cleaners when on-site. We had a couple of small issues that were resolved quickly by the host. We used the sauna but there is no privacy fence between the neighbors. Location is awesome and nice smaller house, which is good for four adults but will get really tight with anyone else. Barking dog is still there to greet us as we come/go. Room gets really bright early with the upper windows not having any shades but we left early to go the local sites anyway. You are really close to downtown and all of the parks. Host was awesome and responded quickly.

Beautiful house and great location!

We had a great stay at this cozy 2-bedroom home in Keystone, South Dakota. The house was newly remodeled, clean, super cute, and had everything we needed. The beds were comfy and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. The location was perfect — just minutes from Mount Rushmore, the 1880 Train, downtown Keystone, Custer State Park, and an easy drive to Rapid City. It’s in a friendly neighborhood and was very easy to find.The host was responsive and helpful with any questions we had. No complaints at all!We’d definitely stay here again if we’re back in the area!
