About this property

The Studio by Alex from Building Outside the Lines

The Studio is a 2-person oasis in an adorable neighborhood with a babbling brook, where you can rest in quiet and watch the turkeys, deer, ducks, and squirrels. Alex (Sprout), a star of Building Outside the Lines and Cappie’s stepdaughter, redesigned the interior of the space. She has provided outdoor seating nearby under the trees, next to the brook that runs in the summer.

The Studio is located in the sideyard of an historic home in a residential area on the edge of Spearfish. It originally was the servants’ quarters, but was mostly used as a henhouse for much of the 1900s. In 2015, it was renovated as an office space. Then Alex remodeled it yet again for a vacation rental.

The family in the home enter and exit from the other side of the house (including the garage), so you will have utmost privacy.

Guests will have a private parking space next to the Studio. A sidewalk leads to the door.

Should any issues arise during your stay please feel free to contact the property manager Candace or the owner Cappie

Cute place to stay with nearby walkable access to paved Spearfish Recreation Path. Property was clean and bed comfy. No dedicated work space, but spacious closet and nice bathroom, with small coffee bar area with mini fridge. We'd stay again!

In a word—character. What a nice place! Deer walk quite close and each morning 19 turkeys pass by on their morning walk (within 15 ft of me standing there). The interior and furnishings at top rate. It’s really a wonderful little property:)

Very quaint VRBO! It's about the size of a regular hotel room. Was clean and the bed was extremely comfortable. No TV which was a PLUS! Will definitely stay again when we visit relatives in the area.
