This cozy fully furnished mid-century bungalow is set in a quiet south side neighborhood and offers a wonderful retreat. You'll feel at home as soon as you walk in the front door. Enjoy all that Rapid City and the beautiful Black Hills have to offer from a convenient base with all of the basics.
Close to downtown restaurants, city parks, groceries, and Memorial hospital. Downtown Rapid City hosts a number of civic events during the summer months including street fairs and music in the town square. Close-by Canyon Lake park, fed by the clear water from Rapid Creek, offers an outdoor family setting for picnics with fishing and paddle boating during the warm summer months.
Located only a short drive to Mount Rushmore and a variety of outdoor activities including fishing and boating at Sheridan Lake and Pactola Reservoir, fly fishing in Rapid Creek, and many family tourist attractions.
Easy access to scenic highways leading to historic mountain towns founded during the Black Hills Gold Rush including Lead with its Homestake Mine and neighboring Deadwood that still offers gambling in a historic old west setting. Close by is the home of the world-famous Sturgis Motorcycle Rally.
If scenic rides are your thing, try Spearfish Canyon or Custer State Park. Custer Park is home to free roaming herds of buffalo and pronghorn antelope. It is also home to idyllic Sylvan Lake and the spectacular Needles Highway, where you might find yourself face to face with the resident mountain goats. Devil's Tower in Wyoming is less than 2 hours away through the beautiful Black Hills. For tourist shopping and ice cream we suggest visiting Hill City or Custer during your drive.
We feature an updated kitchen with full size range, refrigerator, and microwave (sorry, no room for a dishwasher). The cozy living room furniture includes a chair, futon, and dining table with seating for four. The kitchen island provides seating for an extra guest. We provide a propane grill for cooking outdoor meals or just relax in your private, fully fenced back yard and patio.
The entertainment system is complete with free WiFi and internet access, a 42" smart TV with Roku to access streaming services, and a stereo receiver with CD and Bluetooth inputs for your music. We also provide free Netflix, board games, and nostalgic video arcade games.
Ideally suited for 4, but can accommodate 5, sleeping arrangements include two bedrooms with comfortable queen beds and a double size futon for a fifth guest. The full bathroom is newly remodeled to be clean, modern, and well-maintained.
The house is fully equipped with all the linens, dishware, and other essentials you'll need including free private laundry with basic supplies, iron and board, hair dryer and other bathroom basics, and central AC and furnace for year-round comfort. Private, off-street covered parking is also included on the property.
