About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Great value! Great location! Located walking distance to downtown Hill City!

Beautifully updated home in the perfect location for exploring the Black Hills and Hill City! Walk downtown or hop on the 110 mile Mickelson trail system just a few blocks from the house! You will be delighted by the clean, bright open space and low cleaning fee!

With a modern kitchen, two queen bedrooms and two bathrooms, this vacation home is perfect for a family or two couples that want to enjoy all that the Black Hills have to offer and relax and enjoy the evenings.

This home boasts an additional bonus area with futon, washer and dryer, two sitting areas and a large back deck with gas grill.

The Villa is located just up the hill from the 1880 steam train depot and museum. You can wave at the tourists on the train as it rolls into the station but rest assured, the train won’t wake you from your slumber. It only runs a few times a day and is barely heard from inside the house! It’s sure to be a highlight of your stay!

The Villa is not a good fit for large groups or anyone traveling with a big rig (off street parking is required by the city-please inquire before booking if you have a camper, trailer, etc.).

This rental is for the entire main floor of the home. A basement with completely separate entrance is not included in this rental and is reserved for use by owners.

This home is equipped with security camera directed towards the front door.

Great Place
Property was as advertised and very accommodating. Size was perfect for our family of 4. Location was perfectly located in the center of all the family attractions in the area. Also, very close to all the Hill City attractions. Would highly recommend and would stay again if/when we return. Thanks for a great stay.

Perfect Stay in Black Hills
This was the perfect location for our trip to South Dakota. We went all the way out to the Badlands, to Jewel Cave, Custer State Park, and, of course, the obvious Mount Rushmore. We also went up to Sturgis and Deadwood, and this was a great centerpoint to keep coming back to at the end of each day. The house is charming and comfortable. The two queen size beds were extremely comfortable. Glynda is an amazing host. Super suggestive, extremely communicative, and very kind. The four of us decided 1000% we would stay in this house again. 👍

Excellent property. Could have extra towel racks in each bathroom, full length mirror and a longer curtain in the far bathroom. It was very quiet and we enjoyed the deck. The main living area was very roomy and great for a small group to get together. Location was perfect. Would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful property and a great location!
This property is great! We were able to get to everywhere we needed when we needed to. It was cozy and homey and the owner was great to work with. We made a change in our schedule and she was very accommodating. The beds were excellent and the chairs in the living room and family room were comfortable. A few of the lights were hanging a bit low for our two taller people but we made do. The kitchen was well stocked and had plenty of containers for storing extra food. Thanks for everything.

Cozy Home in Hill City!
We stayed for 6 nights while riding motorcycles around the Black Hills! This home is so close to downtown Hill City yet had privacy and deer cross almost daily through the yard! We could walk downtown and took the 1880 train to Keystone which is walkable from the home as well! Super location, home is extremely clean and well kept! Great communication with our host, Glynda! Thank you for an awesome stay Glynda! We definitely recommend this home!

Great spot to watch the train!
We had a great week at this rental! Glynda was so easy to communicate with, and was very accommodating of all of our needs. We had no issues before or during our stay. This property is not a quiet quiet Black Hills escape at all, as there is a lot of noise from town and the train. However, if you have kids, it’s a great spot to watch the train! It is right uphill from where the engine stops and disconnects from the train, and we watched it every chance we could. It was a highlight of our vacation! We would definitely consider staying here again!

The house was very clean! We had ample supplies for cooking, bathing, and relaxing. We loved the deck with table, chairs and lounge chairs. I wished the master bedroom and bath had better doors. Also the futon was not comfortable, but we appreciated the air mattress provided, which we used instead.

Beautiful view of Hill City
Beautiful natural light in main area, clean, super soft comfortable sheets, wonderful deck outside. The ONLY reason I gave 4 stars on communication with property manager was because I had sent a message with a quick question prior to stay and, to my knowledge, never received a reply. We were looking forward to grilling out every night but the grill was in desperate need of a good cleaning and there were some grates that were burnt through. The view of this sweet little town is beautiful and the deck is larger than the listing picture shows. The kitchen was wonderful, the entertainment/tvs were easy to use and had many things to choose from which we appreciated after a long day out being able to put a disney show on for kids while we made supper. Overall I would love to stay again.

Hill House Review
Convenient location, well equipped kitchen, good communication with owner. The home could use more lightjng, specifically floor lamps beside sofa and beds. Small bedroom could benefit from shelving and better storage of clothing and travel gear. The attached small bathroom needs storage space for toiletries, as the large sink takes most of the on the vanity top.

Wish we could give this place 10 stars! Very spacious, clean, beautiful, and QUIET! Everything was perfect! Very easy access to all attractions! Love people in South Dakota!!!

Clean and comfortable
We stayed here for 4 nights. Great central location to many things to do in the Black Hills. Located close to downtown Hill City- be prepared to walk without a sidewalk and fairly steep incline (if you have knee problems). The house was clean, comfortable and had all the amenities we needed. Especially appreciated generous storage for our hanging clothes and drawers. Nice to have two bathrooms- both showers worked great. The deck is even larger than the photos with an additional seating area with comfy lounging chairs. Communication with Glynda was easy- however we never had to contact her because our stay went so smoothly!
