We absolutely loved this property! We chose Rapid City as it gave us great access to all the attractions we wanted to visit. This home was so lovely and adorable. Our family of 6 was very comfortable here. The home was close to downtown, we walked to dinner many times which was great. Manya was so nice and was very responsive when we had some questions. One last thing-this home was stocked insanely well with anything you could ever need! Thanks so much for a wonderful stay!

Super in SD

The lovely little house worked well for a 2 day retreat as we explored the area. The interior was spotless. The small set of welcime snacks was much welcomed. The books and brochures on the area that lined the bookshelves we great. I enjoyed a morning coffee in a South Dakota themed mug. Our son was impressed with the dinosaur picture on the wall in the owners suite and tried to claim it as his room. We explaines that he who sleepa in that room must do the laundry... so we won. It was a delightful stay.

About the host

Hosted by Manya

Host profile image
As someone who loves to travel and explore this place we call home (Earth!) I am excited to be your host in the place that I call home, the beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota.
There is an endless amount of experiences to be had here and I hope that you will reach out to me with any questions you may have.
When I adventure out it's with just a backpack. I try to keep it light, while traveling, and in living. I find it's all about the experiences we can carry forward, the connections that we make, and the growth that we gain when we step out of our comforts and out into the wide world.
I hope your stay to be all that you wish for!
