Black Hills Mountain Top Cabin with Great Views

Mountain cottage nestled in the Black Hills. Backs onto Forest Service. Access to Rapid Creek for great fishing. Perfect for outdoor adventures, hiking, mountain biking.Eight miles from Rapid City. We also live on the property. Enjoy organic gardens, full kitchen, full bath,sleeping loft with a queen bed. Futon folds into almost full size bed. Private deck with great views. Electric fireplace, high ceilings, views. Great for couples, solo adventurers, and families (with kids).
The space
This cottage was designed as a "Tiny House" with comfort and efficiency in mind. It is very energy efficient and stays cool during hot summers and cozy warm during cold, snowy winters. This home offers a wonderful retreat from noise and the activity of daily life. We have hosted several medical students as they study for board exams. They have been very happy with the peaceful, private space. A private deck with table and chairs is perfect for morning coffee and quiet contemplation, yet spacious enough for Yoga at sunrise. There is an abundance of wildlife to watch. The deer, turkey, bunnies and eagles all contribute to this peaceful space.
Guest access
Entire cottage is your private sanctuary. We have organic, sustainable gardens that you are welcome to enjoy. You are welcome to wander through our Growing Dome greenhouse and pick fresh herbs for cooking. A swing set, climbing rope, and sand box are available for children to enjoy. Two hammocks under the pine trees are a great place to rest and relax.
PLEASE NOTE: Designed and built as a "Tiny House". The loft bedroom is accessible via a retractable ladder (shown in pictures) may not be appropriate for elderly or people with mobility issues.
Other things to note
1. We have 21 pet chickens (hens) and 1 dog. Wildlife present - use caution.
2. Please Don't Chase The Chickens.
3. Mountain road may not be suitable for MOTORCYCLES. Please, communicate with me prior to booking the reservation if you plan to ride your motorcycle.

Perfect Home Base
This place was the perfect home base for our Black Hills excursions. For our family of 4, we fit just right (cozy!) The hosts were welcoming and showed wonderful hospitality including fresh eggs from their own chickens! The cabin itself is small, but still plenty of space for sleeping and lounging. The property backs up to the Black Hills National Forest so the views are beautiful and it is very quiet. It's a little off the beaten path, but worth the climb!
