About this property

Enchanted Studio & secluded outdoor patio oasis with gorgeous views

Whether seeking peace and solitude or a romantic getaway you’ll love this unique & tranquil setting. The newly remodeled luxury studio space flows seamlessly to the beautiful outdoor living area where your senses will be delighted with the elements of earth, fire, & water. With the gas firepit, waterfall, tiki torches, hot tub, outdoor kitchen, amazing views, and abundant flowers and landscaping, you’ll think you’ve stumbled into your own private Black Hills oasis on the outskirts of Rapid City. Offered for rent on a limited basis, be sure to book now to secure your dates!

THE SPACE:
The studio space includes a luxurious king-sized bed, bathroom with walk-in shower, fully stocked kitchenette with microwave, refrigerator, and fully stocked coffee bar. Comfortable seating in the living room with a large HD TV and electric fireplace for indoor ambience. Fast Wi-Fi and multiple streaming services available in addition to the Sonos music system for listening to your favorite music on the patio or indoors.

Located on the lower level of our home the studio has its own secure and private living quarters and outdoor entrance with a keypad for self-check-in. Guests are welcome to the entire yard and patio space as much as desired. There are numerous flowers and trees to enjoy throughout the property.

GUEST ACCESS:
Please note that guests will have a designated parking space in the driveway. Also, access to the suite will require walking through the yard to the rear of our property, and there is a slight slope to the side yard so guests that have difficulty walking on uneven surfaces may not be comfortable here. We are happy to help guests with luggage upon request.

SECURITY:
Outdoor security cameras are in place and monitor all exterior doors for the safety and security of the property and guests. Video clips are motion activated, not continuously recorded.

OTHER INFO TO NOTE:
We have a mini-Australian Shepherd, Penny, and a cat named Whiskey - they are shown in one of the listing photos. Penny barks when visitors arrive but quiets down as soon as she's allowed to greet you, she loves people and is very social and friendly. Whiskey is also very social and is an indoor/outdoor cat so you may see him wandering around the patio & yard.

We don't use the patio space or hot tub when we have guests as we want them to feel the space is completely theirs to use. You may see us mowing grass or watering flowers and Garth does check the hot tub daily to adjust chemicals, but we try to keep the disturbance to your rented space to a minimum.

Although we do live on the upper level of the home, most of our activity takes place on the other side of the home that is not directly above the studio suite, and we do our best to minimize the noise levels. Guests can expect to notice little if any noise from other parts of the home. The studio suite is quiet and private as it's located on the backside of the house. Our guests' privacy and enjoyment of this space is our number one priority.

About the host

Hosted by Julie Stephens

Host profile image
Garth & I have been married for well over 20 years now and we have 3 wonderful children. We are nearly empty nesters at this point so have more time now for things we enjoy like hiking, fishing, gardening, and other outdoor activities.

Why they chose this property

We love living in this quiet neighborhood at the end of a cul-de-sac where we are still in city limits but have a piece of the Black Hills in our back yard with the tree-filled ravine behind our house. It was the perfect spot to create our backyard patio oasis that we enjoy so much that we want to share it with others.

What makes this property unique

Located on the lower level of our home the studio has its own secure and private living quarters and outdoor entrance with a keypad for self-check-in. Our guests' privacy and enjoyment of this space is our number one priority, and we do our best to minimize the noise levels, but please note you may hear us moving about upstairs from time to time as we do live on the upper levels. Guests are welcome to the entire yard and patio space as much as desired. There are lots of flowers and trees to enjoy throughout the property. Raspberries are plentiful in July in the yard and guests may pick and enjoy them as well. We have a mini–Australian Shephard named Penny, and a cat named Whiskey. Penny barks when visitors arrive but quiets down as soon as she's allowed to greet you, she loves people and is very social and friendly. Whiskey is also very social and is an indoor/outdoor cat so you may see him wandering around the patio & yard. Please feel free to say hello if you see us outdoors doing yardwork or cleaning up after Penny. We're always available for questions or chatting but will assume every guest prefers privacy unless otherwise indicated.
