We had an epic vacation with our family of four (two kids 8 & 9). This home was the perfect home base, centrally located and still off-the-beaten-path. They were great hosts and very responsive. The house was fully stocked and we cooked some great meals in their kitchen and on the grill. The kids loved playing by the lake. The scenery was beautiful.
The one thing that we were disappointed by when we first arrived is that it wasn’t as secluded as the pictures made it seem. The owners live in an attached rental unit and there are a number of other similar town homes in the culdesac. This ended up being a plus for us, because our kids had a ton of fun fishing with other kids staying in a different rental unit. And the hosts were not intrusive at all. It ended up feeling pretty private. But it’s something worth noting just in case you are looking for something totally private. Even with our surprise, we were happy we stayed there because it really was the perfect home base.

If you want to get away from it all this is the place. It is a little bit of a drive from Hill City but well worth it for the view along with the peace and quite. There were geese every morning and even some deer across the little lake in the evening. Although we did not get to spend as much time here as we had wished we are considering this place for our next trip to the hills. Wanda was very kind and our place was clean and comfortable!

Our family of five, including two teenagers and one elementary-age child, found the condo cozy, well stocked, and clean. Everyone enjoyed the lake, fishing, paddle boating, and geese watching. The location near Hill City provided easy access to Black Hills’ top attractions. Wanda and Paul were wonderful hosts, accommodating yet respectful of guests’ privacy.

We had a wonderful stay. The condo is amazing the property very relaxing. Our 2 grandsons had a blast fishing and even took a cold dip in the lake. Everything in the Blackhills is close for sightseeing. We would recommend this property.

The beautiful sunrises and view from our back deck were amazing! We had a fun time riding the trails and doing a little sight seeing. Our hosts were very kind the house was cozy and clean. We would definitely come back.

Our hosts were wonderful people. We were located close to Rapid City, Mt Rushmore, Crazy Horse, and Custer State Park. The setting was very tranquil, hills were beautiful. After a long day of seeing the sights , it was nice to get back and unwind. Definitely a hidden gem with this property. Hopefully its available when we return in the future

From the minute we arrived we knew the extra driving to get to this beautiful lake-side property would be worth it. Wanda greeted us warmly and gave us a little tour and explained things we might like to know.
The kitchen was thoughtfully stocked, the sheets were silky, and the outdoor living space was heaven. We grilled and ate outside almost every night.
My kids loved paddle boating and fishing. They also liked hanging out on the deck outside playing games and giggling our mornings and evenings away.
We weren't at the property much in the middle of the day as we were sight-seeing. If that's what your trip includes, I would say the extra driving amounted to about half an hour total each day, as the property is located outside of Hill City in the opposite direction of most of our activities. But man...was it a beautiful place to come "home" to each day.

Wanda & Paul are wonderful hosts. The condo itself was very clean, organized and had all the basic essentials. The location is "off the beaten path" -- it is beautiful, peaceful and the perfect spot to land after a busy day of sightseeing. We enjoyed fishing the private lake, paddleboat rides and s’mores around the fire pit. The kids had so much fun reeling in (and releasing) the trout. Our family loved watching the deer play in and around the lake as well as spotting the osprey and herons. Would, without a doubt, stay again.

The hosts are wonderful, friendly and caring. You can sit on the patio and watch the deer play around the lake. Such a quaint place to come "home" to after a day in the Black Hills.

Thank you for providing our family with a perfect get away. Fishing, paddle boating, and swimming suited us perfectly. We recommend this property to anyone who loves the outdoors and loves a comfortable place to sleep after a long day of trail riding.

We had a wonderful, quiet stay. The view was spectacular, the accommodations were perfect, and the owners were attentive and sweet natured. We’d recommend this spot to anyone.

This place is truly a hidden gem! The first trip to the property left us wondering if the extra travel was worth it, as it's another 20+ mins up the hill from Hill City. When we arrived and saw the property, with the most peaceful view and little mountain lake you've ever seen, all concerns evaporated into thin air.
The owners instantly felt like family, and are very available for anything you might need.
Our kids thoroughly enjoyed the private access to the lake - fishing, paddle boats, swimming - and rolling down the hills : )
We even witnessed an osprey diving for a fish! That's how peaceful and relaxing of an environment this place is.
Cell service is limited, but that was a bonus for us. They do offer free wifi connection.
This place made our SoDak summer trip into one of those incredible summer adventures our kids will never forget.
We will definitely look to stay here again! Thanks again Wanda!

This was our first VRBO experience. Wanda and Paul are great hosts. All of the positive reviews are accurate. We enjoyed fishing along the dam. We caught some nice fish using Panther Martin spinners. We saw deer, turkey, blue herons and ospreys fishing.
This is a great base to enjoy Jewel Cave, Mt. Rushmore and all that Custer State Park has to offer.
We highly recommend this property!! I wish we could have stayed longer.
Thanks Wanda and Paul!

Perfect in every way! The hosts Paul and Wanda are wonderful people that have left no detail unturned. Our family of 5 enjoyed a fun week of paddle boating on the lake and and also utilizing the UTV trails that are near the entrance of the home. The home was perfect and had all the amenities we needed and more. Close to all the major attractions but also secluded to simply get away. A great place to stay!

This was the first vacation with our best friends WITHOUT children! The condo and location was so much more than advertised! Wanda had every little detail covered and more! So peaceful and breathtaking! The guys were like kids in a candy store with the outstanding fish they caught! It was such a wonderful place to reconnect as spouses and friends! Thank you Wanda and Paul for helping us recharge our batteries!

We saw wildlife watering at the lake over morning coffee and wine time in the evening! This is the best stocked vacation home we have ever stayed. Cooked every dinner here. Grilling was fun! We own timeshare all over the world and us VRBO for places we can't use our timeshare! Best furnished vacation home ever.
Our hosts Wanda and Paul were wonderful! So many great parks within easy driving distance. Make sure you do Custer State Park and Crazy Horse.
Thanks again Wanda and Paul, we will be back!

Beautiful setting. The property was a bit off the beaten path but it was very nice. Each morning we watch the sunrise over the hill and the lake. Most mornings we saw deer, elk or other animals. One morning I walked out the front door and there was literally a deer right outside the door. If you’re Verizon customer you will have no service unless you use Wi-Fi. Overall great experience.

We really enjoyed our stay here. Wanda & Paul were wonderful people, very friendly but not intrusive.
The place was beautifully decorated, & super clean.
The house had everything we needed.
Considering the area had a terrible hail storm, with baseball size hail, the week before. The owners went out & bought items that were destroyed by the storm just so our visit was comfortable.
Would definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants to visit this beautiful area of South Dakota.

We loved this place and our stay here! It is even more cute and comfortable than the pictures can convey. It has been so thoughtfully appointed and decorated, is in excellent condition and is spotlessly clean. The deck and view are just two of the highlights. We enjoyed meals, games and just lounging and relaxing here, as well as peaceful nights' sleep. It was a wonderful place to return to after long hikes, paddles and day trips to sights in the Black Hills. Wanda and Paul are amazing hosts and made us feel at home in this little paradise.
5.0
Our family (5 total) had a great stay at this beautiful property. Everything we needed was on site, even had condiments in the fridge. So lovely to watch deer every morning from the outside deck. Located about 15 min outside of Hill City, so remote enough to feel like you are out of the touristy area. Comfortable beds too. Would definitely recommend!

We LOVED staying at this property. Wanda was so warm and welcoming when we arrived. The view of the property is breathtaking. We loved sitting out on the patio at night to roast marshmallows and again in the morning for coffee. They have thought of everything you would need. We highly recommend staying here!

We traveled to the area with our 11 & 14 year old and even with a full itinerary of daily sites to see the kids always looked forward to the part of our day that was just outside on the deck or fishing/paddle boating on the water. It was centrally located to everything we wanted to see, but was so nice to get away from it all at the end of the day. The hosts have thought of everything to make your stay memorable & enjoyable! We would love to return to this exact place & will definitely send friends & family this way too!

Our family of 5 loved the time we spent in the Black Hills and Wanda and Paul's Condo was a pefect fit for us. It was a great place to call home while we were there. The location was perfect-close enough to the area attractions/parks we wanted to visit yet away from the hustle and activity surrounding those areas. We enjoyed being able to end our busy days at the peaceful, relaxing condo with a beautiful view. Wanda and Paul were welcoming hosts and I would definitely recommend staying at their property.

We are very happy with everything about this property. We had the most relaxing vacation in years.
The accommodations were all we could have hoped for. Close to the attractions and quiet isolation. If you are looking for Harley's and Mud Cars, this isn't your place. But there was a particular rooster down the road that could get annoying, but you get used to it!
Wanda & Paul were wonderful hosts and made us feel completely at home!
Thank you for everything, it will be a trip to remember!

This a a beautiful property. The location is great. We loved seeing all the tourist attractions during the day and then coming “home” to the peace and tranquillity of this property. Wanda and Paul are wonderful hosts. We would absolutely stay at this property again. Our kids will be talking about this vacation for years to come. Thank you for a fantastic stay in the Black Hills!

Our family took a week long trip to SD and stayed at this great property. It was a little ways from town, but that was perfect for us. We felt like we could do our "touristy" things and come back to a serene lake front condo. We utilized the kitchen and grill a few times, which was nice. My husband and son definitely loved fishing in the lake and we all enjoyed the peaceful deck and fire pit in the evenings. Wanda and Paul were AMAZING! We would definitely recommend this place to anyone!

This property was absolutely amazing! The townhouse was very nice and the views were breathtaking. We have a 6 year old that loved the paddle boat and fishing. The gas fire pit was great, we enjoyed roasting marshmallows. The owners are so great! Very welcoming and helpful. They even gave us a bottle or wine and sparkling cider for the little one, to enjoy on our visit. This is such a great place. We would love to come back in the future.
