Top of Hill City -walk to great food, local art & more!

Sweet little studio apartment at the top of Hill City. Attached to the host's business, an art studio/gallery & gift shop... so we are available to answer any questions or give local attraction suggestions during business hours most days. There are linens, dishes, pots and pans in the apartment and a gas BBQ grill on the patio. There is a TV with blu-ray player and available for streaming (but no cable or satellite), as well as some games and puzzles. Plenty of off-street parking. Walking distance to EVERYTHING Hill City has to offer. Dining, drinks, art galleries, gift shops as well as grocery, post office, laundromat, convenience store and more. The beautiful Black Hills are right here... Mt. Rushmore and Crazy Horse as well as hiking trails and lakes are just down the road. Keystone, Custer, Deadwood, Spearfish, Rapid City and Sturgis right in the neighborhood too.
The apartment is air-conditioned and features a separate bedroom.

If you’re looking for a place to stay in Hill City and you have a small family of 4 or less and you’re on a budget, this is a great little place to stay. The beds were super comfortable and it had all of the amenities that we needed for our stay. Plus, if you want to literally be within walking distance of everything, restaurants, souvenir shops, candy shops, etc., it’s all within walking distance. The pizzeria Mangiamo’s has great pizza and pasta and is right across the street and the 1880 train station is also within walking distance. The covered deck area is nice to sit at and enjoy your morning coffee and sit around and visit in the evenings. Communication with host was good and they answered any questions we had.

This property was great starting with location close to shops and restaurants. We went to bike the Mickelson trail and with this location of the property it was easy access to do that. The bed was extremely comfortable and the shower and bath towels were great. The only thing was no light switch as you entered the building, but would definitely stay again.

We really enjoyed the location as it was within walking distance to of all the places we like to eat and shop. It was spacious, had everything we needed (especially the delicious cookies) plus the outdoor seating area was great. The only complaint was that the bed was too soft for me but, the daybed was fine

Great location

Awesome location, right at the edge of town. All the tourist shops and restaurants just outside your door but yet in a reasonably quiet location. Keystone, Custer, Mount Rushmore and more are all just a short drive away. The apartment was very clean, well stocked, and worked out well for us. The outdoor patio area was perfect for morning coffee and a place to relax in the evenings. The host was very nice.

Very nice property

Clean, the beds were comfortable, the shower drained well and had plenty of hot water. The toilet flushed - what more could you ask for. And the sitting area was a pleasant surprise. Great place for coffee in the morning. The pizza joint next door was close and the food was good, though a bit pricey All in all this is a fantastic find!

Perfect sightseeing location!

The property was as shown in the pictures. It was plenty spacious for our family of four, which includes two teenage boys. It’s a perfect location to do everything in the Black Hills down to Hot Springs, South Dakota. And if you wanted to go north to Spearfish and Deadwood areas.
