About the host
Hosted by Paula Pierce
Hi! My name is Paula and I am a Black Hills native, living here my entire life. Some of my sweetest memories were living in Custer State Park and working 3 summers at the State Game Lodge. I had a dream of once living on Ghost Canyon Rd and now live only miles away. I currently teach on the reservation and wouldn’t teach anywhere else. In the summer I am a tour guide, meeting and serving others is just in me. Where we live is stunning and we can’t wait to share it with you!
Why they chose this property
Peaceful-Quiet-Charming! That’s all I need to say, take in the pine smell during the day and star gaze at night. It doesn’t get any better!
What makes this property unique
