We have a great experience with our family at this location. There were 13 of us and never felt crowded. The house was well stocked and clean upon arrival. If back in the area we would rent again.

The place was fantastic and the views were incredible . The only reason I didn't give the check in process an excellent was user error on my part. I definitely recommend this place for a peaceful or event filled getaway. Walt C. , C R Iowa July 2nd through 6th.

The Epic Lodge at Nemo is a super spot to have a large group. Our family enjoyed the scenery off the stunning wrap around deck for early morning coffee or evening conversations. The hosts have curated and designed a beautiful Black Hills getaway with sleeping spaces for privacy and great room/kitchen space for hanging out together. There is a long list of amenities, accurately described plus extras that prove these hosts work on the details to make your stay a memorable one. Many thanks for a fabulous place to enjoy the Black Hills experience.

Fourth of July in Nemo

Five nights with 12 to 18 guests from 11to 72. We had a great time, the upper level deck is the length of a football field. Plenty of spaces for group activities, and plenty of spaces for quiet conversations. The kitchen and pantry were perfect and well equipped. Couldn’t have asked for a better place for our group.

Family Wedding

This beautiful lodge was home to our family for the week as we prepared for and attended our son’s wedding nearby. Nineteen of us had plenty of room, comfy beds, and everything we could possibly need to cook and entertain our family. Our food and clothes were all we needed to make the stay perfect! Bruce was available for any questions we had, and we have never stayed in a cleaner, more accommodating, and fun home away from home! Highly recommend!

ImWe have no complaints. Tracie and Bruce were friendly and helpful. They responded to all inquiries are we’re on hand if some thing would have needed to be addressed of which , nothing needed to be addressed. We had 20 people. 12 adults and 8 kids and teens. There was ample space for people to spread out and have alone time if needed. The kitchen was the best stocked kitchen of any Vrbo we have stayed in. Plenty of space for the family to eat at our dinner family meals. The teens enjoyed their music and playing pool and the kids loved the ping pong. There is a ton of outdoor space and badminton and volleyball. Nemo might sound like it’s in the middle of nowhere but it is very handy to many activities. We are all home now except for our WA state family and totally worn out.

Perfect Family Vacation Spot

The first thing we noticed upon arrival is how impeccably clean the house was. Our stay included 24 family members ranging in age from 4-74. The house was perfect in that there were separate areas that groups could be, so the number of people we had didn't make it seem crowded. The kids loved the pool and rec room. The adults played yard games. There was a nice sitting spot on the deck where the adults would congregate in the evenings. The built-in griddle on the commercial style range was amazing for making breakfast for the whole group.

A peaceful vacation spot.

Lovely ranch. The kitchen was well equipped but we were looking for some 9/13 pans for baking. The right front burner should be looked at as the flame shoots up. The layout of the bedrooms is a bit odd, and it seems strange to share such a lovely master bath with another couple. However, we had so much fun together in the home sitting on the beautiful front porch and the comfy back deck, and enjoying the fire pit. We are sure that anyone who rents this home will enjoy it as much as we did.

The Lodge

We had our family reunion with 19 people at The Lodge. It’s a spectacular spacious lodge with a fantastic view. We had a baby along and Traci had a feeding chair, bathtub and pak&play there for us. We did all our own cooking. The kitchen is very upscale and well stocked, including spices and 2 gas grills. We wanted for nothing other than an earlier checkin and later checkout. Very memorable time. I would highly recommend. Thank you Bruce and Traci for being such gracious hosts!

Amazing house with a beautiful view!

10 guys rode motorcycles from Northern CA to Nemo for the Sturgis 84th Rally. The pictures online looked beautiful, but were nothing as nice as when we walked through the front door! What an incredible, upscale place! A large kitchen and open living room for entertaining and a huge deck outside with everything needed for a trip, to include 3 sets of washers/dryers and 3 refrigerators total! Our entire group, ages 54-80, highly recommend this for a group of friends, family or a reunion. As a bonus, it's located next to a restsuramt/bar with general store and gas. Thanks for providing the house where great memories were made!

Nemo Lodge Ranch

My family along with 3 other couples traveled in to Nemo for the first week of Sturgis. From the moment we booked this incredible property, Bruce was prompt in answering any questions I had. Then we walked in to what may be the cleanest VRBO we have ever stayed in. And I mean immaculately clean. From bedding, to towels, to kitchen, bathrooms, floors. Spotless. The property then extended down to a gorgeous pool that is attached to a sweet little game room. Lots of pool floats and swim diapers available. The kitchen is fully stocked with anything you may need to include crockpots. We were so impressed Bruce and Terri. Thank you thank you thank you!

Beautiful home

We reserved the lodge for our February company retreat and their families. We had a family emergency in February and the hosts were gracious and allowed us to switch our reservation to the end of March. We walked in the lodge and were immediately impressed. The rooms are spacious and we loved the additional attached guest (house) our employees had their privacy and we had ours. The game room was a hit with the kids. We cooked all our meals in the home and it was stocked with all the pots, pans, serving dishes, instapot and utensils needed. I really enjoyed cooking on the griddle that was part of the stove top. It made cooking for lots of people super convenient. The hosts are very quick to answer any questions we had. I would highly recommend this VRBO!

Very nice House

Is really 3 kitchens and 3 different apartments connected into one big house. But they are also separate. We only used one kitchen of the 3. There were plenty of pots and pans and cooking stuff. Also I think he replaced the dishwasher which was pretty tempermental. Pretty old horses on the property. Wish there was a jacuzzi but the property was amazing. We definietly enjoyed it. BBQ was a little far from the kitchen but, it worked more than fine. And theres no wood fires due to droughts etc. Other than the no fire the place was super nice.
