My husband and I loved staying at the bungalow. We enjoyed making breakfast every morning before our day of excursions, and most of the time also cooked our own dinner there and relaxed for the evening just like home. The location was perfect for all of the sites we planned to visit each day. We would definitely stay again if in the area and would highly recommend to others!

About the host

Hosted by Jami Berger

Host profile image
Matt and I love to travel, and we always seek out luxury, comfort, and convenience wherever we go. Through our vacation rentals, we aim to give every guest a truly indulgent experience. We ensure our properties are warm, inviting, and stocked with everything needed to feel like a home away from home.

Why they chose this property

This home is nestled in the charming West Boulevard Historic District, just a short walk from the lively downtown. The neighborhood features a beautiful tree-lined boulevard that bursts with color in the fall, perfect for a peaceful stroll. It’s well-kept, safe, and offers a warm, welcoming vibe for everyone.

The Village at St. Joseph includes five beautifully renovated homes, ideal for families of all sizes or groups of friends. Guests can stay close while still enjoying their own private space. Next to this bungalow is a three-bedroom home, and across the property you’ll find a two-bedroom apartment, a one-bedroom apartment, and a studio. There are also two additional one-bedroom bungalows. A shared outdoor patio creates a cozy spot for everyone to relax, enjoy the view, and make great memories. Located downtown, the homes are within walking distance to breweries, coffee shops, restaurants, and boutiques, as well as nearby hiking and biking trails like M-Hill and Skyline Recreational Park. The location offers quick access to main roads in Rapid City, I-90, and Mt. Rushmore. You’ll often see me, Jami, around the property, adding personal touches, keeping things clean, and tending to the landscaping to keep the grounds beautiful year after year.

What makes this property unique

Our reviews say it all—we’re dedicated to giving guests the best experience possible. We work hard to offer stylish, comfortable homes that are always clean and fully stocked with everything you might need, right down to a casserole dish. Plus, enjoy free private parking, Wi-Fi, and easy self-check-in with a secure door code.
