About this property

PRICELESS MT RUSHMORE VIEW! You can enjoy the Wall Street Journal House of the Week (June 2019)!

With the best views in the Black Hills! **ADDED IN WINTER 2023 IS A SECOND MASTER SUITE IN THE MAIN HOUSE**

Out of this world custom designed, Dick Knecht architectural masterpiece home and guest tower at private Lakota Lakes Community. Situated in close proximity to Custer State Park, some of the most beautiful and sought-after land in the Black Hills.
No expense spared in the details that make this home a fine piece of art. The open floor plan, floor to ceiling windows, infinite corner windows, and deck. The main home has TWO luxurious master suites, gourmet kitchen, living, dining, den, pantry and huge deck for enjoying the direct view of Mount Rushmore. Plus, the guest “Tower” reminiscent of the fire tower on Black Elk Peak, beside the main home, is made to look like the Harney Peak lookout tower. With two bathrooms, queen suite on the first floor and four twin trundle bedroom (yes, sleeps 7 in twins!) on second floor. A FULL 360 degree viewing deck on top with a spiral staircase connecting all - perfectly enchanting for sunset drinks.

Construction is finished and new washer and dryer operational.

Come relax in the serenity of this enchanting community surrounded by miles & miles of USFS. Walk to Lakota Lake for kayaking, fishing, or viewing pleasure. This tranquil retreat is just 45 min from Rapid City on paved roads all the way to the front door! One of only three Wilderness Preservation Communities in SD. They are very conscious of not disturbing nature and taking good care of the land so all the homes seem to rise from the earth.

This home is available year-around, but we are sensitive to the mountainous roads during winter months. Snow removal is provided, but not on a daily basis. We will work with you in planning your trip, to avoid any winter road hazards.

Great house but a few problems

This is a beautiful house in a great location. I would like to give it 5 stars, but a few problems prevent this. Poor communication from host. We were notified about lack of laundry facilities and construction in process less than a month before our trip (too late to make changes). I received the house rules (no TV, bring DVD’s, no shoes in the house, bring slippers) when I was at the airport heading west. We received no communication that we would have to walk through the construction to get to 5 of the 6 bedrooms, that the screened porch had been removed (there were hornets), nor about the non-functioning ice maker. Any group with mobility issues: Be aware that 5 of the 6 bedrooms are accessed through construction and 4 of the 5 bedrooms in the “bunkhouse” are on the second floor and are accessed by a spiral staircase. We were not able to bring our suitcases up to these bedrooms. Both bathrooms in the bunkhouse are on the first floor. Again, this is a beautiful house in a good location, and we had a nice time.

Property Not as Described.

The high excitement my wife, newborn and parents in law had leading up to the trip regarding the wonderful, beautiful location & property quickly faded once we realized Tina R. (owner) and Tina K. (manager) had grossly misrepresented the property. Upon arrival in April 2023, 1/3 of the compound was under construction and off-limits to us (told merely 24 hours before stay). Moreover, the laundry was non-functional with "out of order" signs upon arrival (not told before arrival; literally the first thing we saw as we talked in). Solution proposed by Tina K. was "there are laundromats 40 minutes away". Walking in mud/dirt/grass between the compounds at night was dangerous and filthy. Suffice to say, this was an absolute terrible experience at a high cost and I would never return to a property under similar management/ownership. Despite the beautiful location/views, I strongly recommend avoiding at all costs.

Mount Rushmore view house

House is beautiful! Obviously, the owner /builder took great pride in design and furnishing. Location is ideal. Perfect accommodations for a couple. Bedrooms for anyone else is in a separate structure. Some negatives: washing machine and dryer didn’t work hot water was dark and funky loud creaks in ceiling all times of day and night dead mouse in master closet, in trap for what appears to be weeks.

South Dakota Group Trip

The house was a wonderful home base for all our goals on this trip. We Drove to Devils Tower, (3 hours) Mammoth Site (Less than 1 1/2 hours), Crazy Horse (Less than 1 hour) Mount Rushmore (Less than 30 minutes) Wall Drug (1 1/2 Hours) & Badlands same day. As suggested if you do major grocery shopping you should do in Rapid City ... However, we discovered that the Lynn's Dakotamarts were really nice groceries... They had them in Custer. We didnt eat out except twice... Custer Wolf in Custer was really good!! and we ate at the cafe inside Wall Drug, it was surprisingly good... they also have amazing peanut butter fudge! Wonderful trip with friends overall!

Did not disappoint

Our family loved staying at this location. Having the tower space was perfect my adult children to convene in the later evening to continue their socializing and have space apart from us. The view was worth the cost. Keystone only 18 minutes away so it felt very isolated and peaceful yet in reach of civilization. Property was very clean, kitchen well stocked with non-food items, and beds were comfortable. I was not anticipating the creaking of the roof all day and night due to its expansion and contraction but felt better after realizing what it actually was. Still worth the stay!

Perfect Home away from home!

This is truly a Beautiful home. Has all the amenities one needs for a relaxing getaway. If you are traveling with young children be aware the other rooms are off the main house in the tower. Liz was great on communication and we will definitely consider staying again if we decide to visit S. Dakota again!

Beautiful Home and Location

My family of 6 (2 adults and 4 children ages 14,12,10 and 8) spent 4 nights at this beautiful home on the black hills. The home was immaculate, very comfortable and communication was crisp. It is well located within the Black Hills where it is a bit of a drive to everything regardless of where you stay. Make sure to enjoy the gorgeous scenery at the property. Couldn’t get enough of the views and the atmosphere!

Black Hills Forest Oasis

I can't say enough good things about our stay at this property. Once we arrived at the house, it was like we were isolated from the rest of the world, out in the middle of a dense forest. The view was outstanding in all directions and we spent each night out on the deck until the moon and stars were shining bright. I'd come back in a heartbeat and would not hesitate to recommend this house to anyone wanting a totally unique get away. The longer we stayed, the more we didn't want to leave.

Beautiful Setting

We spent 4 nights here in July and loved our stay. The house is in the most beautiful setting with pine trees all around and not a neighbor in sight. Our kids loved the tower. The kitchen was very well equipped and the property manager left excellent instructions for all the different aspects of the house. The beds were comfortable and we all slept well. The house is in a very good location for seeing all of the sights in the area. It was a wonderful stay.

Amazing Property

This is an incredible property. Everything about it is beautiful, the view, the neighborhood, the home, and the furniture. Equidistant to all of the attractions nearby. The one issue those looking to stay need to be aware- it was not clear to us from the listing that there is only one bedroom in the main home, we missed it in the narrative. All of the other bedrooms are in the bunkhouse (tower) which is right next to but separate and detached from the home. It wasn't a big deal for us but could be an issue for those traveling with younger children. This might be the nicest home to rent in the entire Black Hills area. Owner was very responsive to any questions. We would 100% absolutely stay here again.
