About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Beautifully updated home in the perfect location for exploring the Black Hills and Hill City! Walk downtown or hop on the 110 mile Mickelson trail system just a few blocks from the house! You will be delighted by the clean, bright open space and low cleaning fee!

With a modern kitchen, two queen bedrooms and two bathrooms, this vacation home is perfect for a family or two couples that want to enjoy all that the Black Hills have to offer and relax and enjoy the evenings.

This home boasts an additional bonus area with futon, washer and dryer, two sitting areas and a large back deck with gas grill.

The Villa is located just up the hill from the 1880 steam train depot and museum. You can wave at the tourists on the train as it rolls into the station but rest assured, the train won’t wake you from your slumber. It only runs a few times a day and is barely heard from inside the house! It’s sure to be a highlight of your stay!

The Villa is not a good fit for large groups or anyone traveling with a big rig (off street parking is required by the city-please inquire before booking if you have a camper, trailer, etc.).

This rental is for the entire main floor of the home. A basement with completely separate entrance is not included in this rental and is reserved for use by owners.

This home is equipped with security camera directed towards the front door.

Beautiful home in perfect location!

We LOVED this property. I would absolutely stay here again. It was immaculately clean, beds and couches were super comfy, kitchen was very well stocked and there were more than enough sheets and towels. I also appreciated a great stock of smaller items that are hard to fly with(shampoo, body wash, coffee/tea/creamers, kleenex, and on and on). The location was perfect. It was central to Custer State Park, Rapid City, Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse and then about 90 minutes to Badlands(but all highway so easy). The Mickelson trail(100 mile gravel trail) is a 3 minute walk from the house. One day while walking we saw deer and about 12 elk! There is also a fairly large back yard for kids to play. The owner was incredibly helpful answering all of my pre travel questions and making the trip much easier. If you are deciding between a few properties, pick this one! You won't be disappointed.

Very nice

One bedroom was a little tight getting into bed, so no nightstand on one side. A little shelf, something enough to put a drink, phone and glasses would have made everything perfect.

Perfect Stay in Black Hills

This was the perfect location for our trip to South Dakota. We went all the way out to the Badlands, to Jewel Cave, Custer State Park, and, of course, the obvious Mount Rushmore. We also went up to Sturgis and Deadwood, and this was a great centerpoint to keep coming back to at the end of each day. The house is charming and comfortable. The two queen size beds were extremely comfortable. Glynda is an amazing host. Super suggestive, extremely communicative, and very kind. The four of us decided 1000% we would stay in this house again. 👍

Excellent property. Could have extra towel racks in each bathroom, full length mirror and a longer curtain in the far bathroom. It was very quiet and we enjoyed the deck. The main living area was very roomy and great for a small group to get together. Location was perfect. Would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful property and a great location!

This property is great! We were able to get to everywhere we needed when we needed to. It was cozy and homey and the owner was great to work with. We made a change in our schedule and she was very accommodating. The beds were excellent and the chairs in the living room and family room were comfortable. A few of the lights were hanging a bit low for our two taller people but we made do. The kitchen was well stocked and had plenty of containers for storing extra food. Thanks for everything.

Cozy Home in Hill City!

We stayed for 6 nights while riding motorcycles around the Black Hills! This home is so close to downtown Hill City yet had privacy and deer cross almost daily through the yard! We could walk downtown and took the 1880 train to Keystone which is walkable from the home as well! Super location, home is extremely clean and well kept! Great communication with our host, Glynda! Thank you for an awesome stay Glynda! We definitely recommend this home!

Great spot to watch the train!

We had a great week at this rental! Glynda was so easy to communicate with, and was very accommodating of all of our needs. We had no issues before or during our stay. This property is not a quiet quiet Black Hills escape at all, as there is a lot of noise from town and the train. However, if you have kids, it’s a great spot to watch the train! It is right uphill from where the engine stops and disconnects from the train, and we watched it every chance we could. It was a highlight of our vacation! We would definitely consider staying here again!

Great place with some wishes

The house was very clean! We had ample supplies for cooking, bathing, and relaxing. We loved the deck with table, chairs and lounge chairs. I wished the master bedroom and bath had better doors. Also the futon was not comfortable, but we appreciated the air mattress provided, which we used instead.
