Perfect Location For your Black Hills Vacation

JennieRating, 5 stars12 months ago

Great location to see all of the Black Hills attractions. Attached to a campground, so you can walk to the office and playground. Grocery stores, pharmacies, restaurants, urgent cares are all close by. The house was comfy, the ac worked great, plenty of room for our group of 7. Loved the neighborhood, it was quiet and well kept. Would 100% stay here again or recommend the house to family and friends.

The spacious bedroom features a large bed with a neutral-colored blanket. A flat-screen TV is mounted on the wall opposite a door leading outside. A desk area with a chair and a guitar are placed by a window, allowing natural light to fill the room.

foothills lodge 30 minutes from mount rushmore.

ShelleyRating, 5 stars8 months ago

This home is perfect for two couples, there is a lot of space to move about and plenty of spots to relax. The home is well equipped and had everything we needed. Our favorite gathering spot was the deck. A rabbit moved in and we enjoyed keeping an eye on him, and the deer that wonder the neighborhood in the evening! The pool table came in handy, and we certainly appreciated being able to put our vehicle in the garage. This home is centrally located to all the sites we came to see. We took the short walk to Canyon Lake Park every evening--what a gem! I would give Chace's home more than 5 stars!
