Located in the heart of The Black Hills, Nemo puts the motorcyclist at the center of Sturgis Rally action. Scenic, paved highways take you through beautiful Vanocker Canyon to Sturgis, 20 miles, beautiful, winding paved highway to Rapid City, 16 miles, or scenic Highway #385 to Deadwood, 16 miles, where you can take in the casino action.

Four Wheelers delight. Back your ATV out of the attached double garage and drive 1/4 mile down the country road to gain access to Centennial Trail. Spend the day four-wheeling through the hills.
Bicycling or hiking through Centennial Trail or Mickelson Trail is also a great way to spend your vacation.

Surrounded by the National Forest, you are located in an ideal setting for hunting (deer, wild turkeys) and fishing.
Don't feel like cooking or just want some night life? Walk over the bridge and spend the evening at Nemo Guest Ranch restaurant which serves meals all day. There you can take in some of the rich Nemo history. Nemo also offers a General Store, US Post Office and Church.
Bring your own horse and pasture it in the corral or rent a horse at the ranch for day rides through the hills.

Home in Black Hill's Historic Nemo
Year Purchased: 2004
The Unique Benefits at this Vacation Home
Since buying our Nemo home we have broadened our outdoor adventures. We love spending the day riding our ATV’s over the many trails. On an ordinary ride we can picnic by an old, abandoned mine or find the trace outline of an abandoned homestead. My husband has also added the sport of turkey hunting and can hunt in the forested areas right around Nemo. He has also been able to deer hunt in the Nemo area.
At all seasons the area is full of beautiful wild flowers. Short walks down the country road that runs by our house and you come upon countless wild flowers. I have started a wild flower picture collection of the many different flowers seen in this area and on our trail hiking.
There is so much natural beauty in this area that one simply enjoys the quietness and clean air.
Owner's Map of Nemo
We fell in love with Nemo the first time we rode through the area. My husband and I love to ride the hills during the Sturgis Rally and on one of those rides we came upon Nemo. After that we made it a point each year of stopping at the Nemo Guest Ranch for dinner, or an early morning ride to enjoy the Nemo Volunteer Fire Department breakfast. Finally, after just being a visitor to the area, we decided to buy a place of our own and spend more time enjoying this beautiful place.
