Great Location
We found the home to be at a very convenient location. It was a 2-3 minute walk from a beautiful park with a pond and large stream. It was also a quick drive to downtown. It was quaint and met our needs as a family of five. The owners are quick to answer any questions.

Cute clean cabin!
This cabin had everything we needed. It was a great location, perfect for seeing all of the popular places in the black hills. The walk to the lake was short and easy! The only thing I would recommend a new mattress for the loft in the near future. The other beds were very comfortable and the house was very clean!

Peaceful/Great Location
We had an amazing time staying at the Black Hills Basecamp! The property is complete with all of the essentials that you and your Dogs need (Very nice fenced in yard to keep the Pups Safe). The walking trails that run along the Stream/Pond are so Beautiful and peaceful for an evening walk after a long day of sight seeing. It was fun to see the Mule Deer walking through the Neighborhood when you walk out the front door. All of the Major attraction are within an hour drive or less. The Hosts are very nice and super responsive if you have any Questions during your stay. 10/10 Recommend this place to enjoy your Rapid City/Black Hills Vacation!!

Name says it all!
This was the perfect place to stay if you intend to explore the Black Hills of South Dakota. Everything was within a 1 to 2 hour drive for us. Accommodations were great. Owner was very responsive. Neighborhood was clean and bustling with runners and dog walkers. Park around the corner was perfect for an evening stroll after sightseeing. This is a great place. Don’t miss the opportunity to stay here!
