About this property

Spacious home with Hot Tub, bikes, fire pit, pool table and more!!

Home in the Hills II is an executive style and the second of our exclusively built vacation homes. The home is in a unique Hill City neighborhood. High above and overlooking the scenic valley below. Here you will see Newton Creek and find easy access to the center point of the 100 - mile Mickelson bike and hiking trail. Forest Service land surrounds this valley, which hosts many deer and wildlife for your viewing. Easy access to some great hiking and scenery of the great black hills. Fishing in Minor and Major lakes. Low light rules allow some fantastic viewing of the night stars – the big dipper is right off the back deck!

The central Hill City location allows you a short trip to access the most attractive and historic sites the Black Hills have to offer. Rapid City and the international airport is 30 minutes . Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse monument and Sylvan lake are a short 15 minute drive. Black Elk Mountain - highest SD location - is just outside of Hill City. Hill City also offers some unique shopping eateries and yes the 1880 train which moves people from the depot in Hill City up the mountain to Keystone where the entire day can be spent touring the attractions.

Inside this 3300 square foot home you and family will find 5 bedrooms, three full baths and powder room off of the kitchen - all with towels, hand soap and yes the hair dryer. Upper level has three bedrooms. Master suite with king bed and spacious bath with shower and soaking tub. Two additional bedrooms with queen beds and a full bath.

The kitchen is large with ample counter space and is fully stocked with all utensils, cookware, coffee pot and slow cooker. You will find the plan very open with the great room and its fireplace just beyond the kitchen island. The great room has large windows, offering great views of the valley and meadows below. Plenty of seating, a large television and fireplace for those chilly evenings.
Dinning with large table for 8 is just off the kitchen - seating for 4 more at the Kitchen Island. The large covered deck is accessed from the dining or master bedroom and is great for some morning sun, relaxing and evening cooking on the gas grill.

Mud room with washer, dryer and 1/2 bath are just off of the large garage. In the garage you will have a selection of bikes, games and yes a small side by side for your use.

The lower level is a walk out to large, covered patio and hot tub! The family room is on this level with pool, foosball tables and games. There is a kitchenette/wet bar and 2 additional bedrooms with a full bath, just beyond the family room. Bedrooms have Queen bed and 2 full/twin bunks. You will find a few toys for the little ones in bedroom closet!

Come and stay in this Black Hills home, which was built - just for you!

Great stay in the Hills

This home is perfectly set up for a family. The location is ideal. Even though it is just up the hill from Hill City, it is quiet and private. We also appreciated the owner’s attentiveness in personally meeting us at the house when we checked in and making sure we had everything we needed.

A wonderful experience

The house was amazing. It was better than advertised and perfect for our family of 11. Floyd was amazing to work with and extremely responsive. Hill City is, in my opinion, the perfect place to stay if you are planning to take in all of the landmarks the Black Hills has to offer. I would stay At this property again in a heartbeat.

All in Agreement!

After staying here 3 years in a row, all 8 of us adults agreed to book it again for next year. It's close to hiking, fishing, museum visits, groceries, biking and running trails, and has so many options for activities right at the home site. Besides all that, the view off the huge covered deck is unbelievable!

About the host

Hosted by Floyd (Chuck) Savageau

Host profile image
We are lifelong residents of Rapid City, SD and the Black Hill area. We know the area well and we absolutely love it! We have frequented the local wineries, hiked the trails, fished the streams/lakes and visited the many local attractions all around the Black Hills.

Why they chose this property

This home was built for us to share the beauty of the Black Hills with visitors to the area. The location is one of a kind! To the North the home is surrounded by National Forest Service Land so the view will always be protected and preserved. Check the reviews of our Home in the Hills listing...#798508 - its right next door!

What makes this property unique

The home has a creek side view from the upper level and the valley below has a small creek winding though it. The deer are ever present and entertaining. I have personally grabbed a rod and landed a trout within minutes in Major Lake which you can see from the patio. The Mickelson Trail lies just beyond the creek which is easily accessible to bikers, joggers or someone looking for a nice easy stroll. The trail is 109 miles long and goes through Mt. Rushmore, Deadwood and much more! This home has all of the views and serenity of the Black Hills in its backyard. Despite it's close vicinity to Hill City you are out of site and have the feeling of being in the heart of the hills.
