About the host
Hosted by Bridget Shorb
I am a married mom with four beautiful daughters, two grown and moved away and 2 teenagers still at home. My husband has lived in the Hermosa area his entire life having grown up on a dairy farm and ranch here and I have been living in the Hermosa area all of my adulthood, so this is our community that we know and love! We have been entrepreneurs from the start and making our way through life in different ventures which led us into the rental housing market in the Hermosa area.
A few years ago, we decided to build a duplex on some land we had been sitting on. One led to two and two led to 3! Wow it was a lot of work over these last few years as we are "do it yourselfers"! I with the design and he with the skills and a lot of blood, sweat and tears, we finished all 6 units and have had annual renters to this point! The units turned out so cute and homey that one day our daughter asked why we weren't sharing the beauty of them with all the travelers we have coming to our area through a vacation rental. Timing just never really worked out until now, so with her help, our lovely little unit came to life! We are so very excited to share our hard work with you all and hope that you find as much enjoyment in it as we had in making it come to life! We are excited for you to come to Hermosa and enjoy all the beauty and fun things to do in the beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota!

Why they chose this property
We built this home recently on land we have had for many years as we are locals here. Hermosa is a growing community but still a very small town. This property is on the very west outskirts so it gives you an out of town feel but with close proximity to everything convenient and easy access. With gas stations, restaurants, grocery store, coffee house and a dollar store in town and super close, you will find this location so super convenient! l hope that you will chose this property for your stay while in the Black Hills area! This location is so easy to find and so convenient! You'll love how easy it is to get on with your day and get back home to after a long day! It truly leads you to anything you want to see and do in the Black Hills! We hope you will love our home, and we hope it feels like your home away from home! We also hope you will be glad you chose it as your place to stay while in the Black Hills and will tell all your friends about it!
What makes this property unique
This home is like a glorified hotel room with all the benefits you can imagine! It’s not huge but has everything you would need to have in a hotel stay but with more comfort, privacy, less people, full kitchen, laundry facility in house and easy access to get to all the areas of the Black Hills that you want to see! There are no hotels in our area, the closest hotel is 15 miles from here, but it is the gateway that has access to all the highways that lead to our areas most sought after attractions. Hermosa is growing and compared to what it was 10 years ago, we have a lot to offer for such a small town! There is now a grocery store, Dollar General, a Coffee Shop, a pizza place, a family restaurant, a US Post Office, rodeo grounds, gas stations and a truck stop which has a deli, a bar, a laundromat, and a hair salon, and there are several local churches in the area. You will find occasionally a Saturday or Sunday morning breakfast offered at the local Masonic hall or American Legion, or a Friday night of Bingo at the local American Legion hall. One local campground offers breakfast every morning during the summer months and dinner in the evenings with maybe a wine tastings or a band for an evening of fun! Every year in August, Hermosa is the home to the Custer County Fair, which is an old school fair where they have cattle showings, submit your talent for judging whether that be baking, sewing, photos, woodworking, etc. and the public is welcome to view all. There is a ranch rodeo, bull riding, 4-H rodeo, and dances. The American Legion holds its biggest fundraiser of the year then too and they call it Beers-n-Ears, where the Legion offers an all your can eat dinner of a hot dog and corn on the cob and a beer if you wish! It's always a good time and something you don't want to miss if you are in the area in August. Then October hosts the must see Custer state Park Buffalo Roundup every year! This is truly something you don’t want to mention as! Come see us soon!
