About this property

Urban Bungalow-City Center

Hosted personally by owners who live 10 minutes away. Blocks from city center, restaurants and nightlife, this authentic 1919 Craftsman Style Bungalow has been renovated completely with modern amenities, but retains its original character. This will be a perfect base for all of your Black Hills adventures. Contactless check-in with door codes provided prior to check-in.

Boasting original wood floors, original weighted windows, and the classic front porch swing, you will feel right at home. We love this unique space and the stories that it must hold in its walls from the last century.

This dedicated vacation rental is equipped with everything you need, new stainless appliances, full size laundry and provided linens on memory foam mattresses. Two living rooms, each equipped with a 50" smart TV, and plenty of comfortable seating. Dining area seats 6-8 comfortably. Kitchen is fully stocked with everything needed for cooking, even an assortment of spices to get you started. Dishes and glassware provided.

Large driveway parking for three vehicles or a camper, plus free on-street parking available.

As locals of the Black Hills, we are excited to share a variety of our favorite experiences and adventures for you to choose from, or make your own Black Hills Adventure.

We are always available or have a manager available for any questions or concerns you may have about the area or the property.

Great home in Rapid City

We stayed at this home for a week while visiting Rapid City for a horse show. The home is absolutely adorable! We loved our stay. It was so cozy and comfortable and had everything we needed! Definitely will be staying here again next time we’re in town.

Great house!

We loved our stay here. It is beautifully remodeled and has everything you could need. I will say the floors are quite squeaky (nothing to be done about that) and our friend staying downstairs was pretty frustrated by hearing every step above her. Overall, very nice stay.

Dad and Sons Annual Trip

We visited Rapid City and surrounding areas for 5 days. The location was convenient to walk to Main St for night life and connecting to highways. We enjoyed how the property had plenty of rooms and living space to hangout. Consider this property if you are visiting Rapid City.

Great location, central to many attractions.

This home is charming and so thoughtfully decorated. It is walking distance to the beautiful downtown area, multiple restaurants, nice stores, coffee and ice cream. The home was comfortable, clean, great wi-fi, good water pressure and had nice outdoor seating areas. We ate out or Door Dashed, but the kitchen had everything one would need to make your own meals. It was just my husband and I, but it would have been great for larger groups too.
