My husband and I stayed at The Woodland Chalet with our three teenagers and my senior parents. There was plenty of space for everyone, and we enjoyed spending time together both indoors and outdoors—especially on the deck, front porch, and in the hot tub. The location is ideal: close to Mount Rushmore, Custer State Park, and downtown Rapid City, yet nestled in a peaceful, tree-filled neighborhood with plenty of wildlife. We also appreciated the thoughtful welcome kit and the well-stocked kitchen, which made our stay even more comfortable. If we return to the area, we would definitely choose to stay here again.

6 Star Review

If I could give this home 6 stars, I would! It is exactly as shown in the photos: beautiful, peaceful, clean and relaxing. Our family loved the location. There are wild turkeys, deer and bunnies constantly crossing the yard to the delight of my children. We enjoyed the hot tub and taking walks in the neighborhood. Everything in the home was clean and comfortable. It is obvious that Taryn takes great pride in this home as she is very responsive and has designed the home with care. We look forward to returning and will recommend this home to friends and family traveling to the Black Hills!

The property is in a beautiful pine-wooded area away from the main roads. We enjoyed its convenience to Rapid City and points of interest in the Black Hills area. Watching the deer and turkeys that came by the back of the property was a plus, too.

Group stayed for Sturgis Bike Rally

We absolutely loved the Woodland Chalet. The location was close to Rapid City but you were far enough to have a ton of wildlife. The checkout process was super simple and Taryn was fantastic to communicate with. My only suggestion would be to have a recliner or two for more seating after a long day of riding. Other than that, we would absolutely stay again!!

A great week in Black Hawk, thanks to the Woodland Chalet!

Where to start...The house was amazing. We are a group of 4 adults seniors who have travelled all over the country together in our classic cars. This was far and away the nicest, cleanest, most accommodating house we have ever rented (and we have rented quite a few!). Everything worked! Ok, one bulb in a nightstand lamp was going out, but the owners had spare bulbs at the house! The furniture was comfortable and plenty of seating for the 4 of us. It even had a very spacious 2 car garage with another refrigerator in it! Plenty of cups, plates, silverware, pots, pans and such. Dishwasher, washer, dryer everything works! Wildlife every day, deer, turkeys, rabbits, squirrels, tons of birds. The beds were all very comfortable, the AC worked great, the ceiling fans in the bedrooms were great! Tarin and Travis were the hosts and you could not ask for better people to have as hosts. They make sure all your needs are met from day one, they respond to your questions very quickly and are a fun and gracious young couple with a couple of cute kids too! They live in the general area. It is in a great location too. A quiet property with neighbors, but nobody right on top of you. Wooded, natural and so relaxing. It is also a great place to use as a hub to go out and visit all the national and state parks in the area, Rushmore, Crazy House, Deadwood, Leed, Walls Drugs and other places. All 4 of us were more than happy with the Chalet, you will be too!

Amazing!

I stayed at the Woodland Chalet for 7 days and I literally cannot say one negative thing about my expierwnce at this house. I’ve stayed at many air b&b’s / vrbo’s and this is by far one of my favorite ones. Every day we saw wildlife in the backyard (turkeys, deer). It was very kid friendly as my 8 & 5 year old niece and nephew came along for the vacation. It was also in a central location. I would most definitely come and stay here again! Don’t hesitate!

Great stay!

Absolutely wonderful stay. We wish we didnt have to leave. Everyday we saw turkeys, deer and rabbits. The house is as exactly as pictured, very warm and welcoming. Beds were comfortable (this is always a big deal for us). Taryn was proactive by emailing me to make sure all of our needs were met. In all the years we've stayed in VRBOs we've only had a handful that have done that. It is very much appreciated! In our 5 day stay we visited Mount Rushmore, Custer State Park, Wind Cave National Park, Deadwood, Devils Tower and much more. Its centrally located to all of the areas. Look no further, you found the perfect house!
