Location was perfect for our stay! Quiet neighborhood and the house was clean. Easy ample parking was a bonus! Neighborhood also includes a community basketball court, which made my boys happy. I loved the washer and dryer so much that it made me want to upgrade my own. We loved watching the deer in the yard and the front porch was our favorite gathering spot. Loved our stay!

Great hosts, location, and very spacious!We picked this house because of its convenience to Mount Rushmore, a lake with a park, restaurants, and shopping. This place really delivers with enough space for 3 couples or a family of 4! It's peaceful too. I can't think of one reason you shouldn't book your stay here.
