West Side Mid-Century Bungalow

Relax & enjoy this quaint and quirky, 1-story home in a quiet neighborhood on the west side of town. Our classic, mid-century bungalow situated on a large lot has been partially updated with some modern amenities, but holds it’s mid century character. According to guest feedback, exterior of the home needs some TLC. Since the home was built in the 1936 hallways and rooms are smaller than today's standards. Although this home is one level, there are additions that have a small step up or step down. Quirky layout, but open concept. Smaller kitchen, but fully stocked.

Fully fenced backyard is perfect for your furry friends to run and play. As a disclosure, parts of the fence are only 3 feet tall. Walking distance to Canyon Lake Park; minutes from the Black Hills National Forest off Highway 44; less than 8 minutes to downtown Rapid City; less than 5 minutes to west side shopping and restaurants; and of course only 30 minutes to Mount Rushmore. This home is sure to be the perfect basecamp for your adventures in the Black Hills!

Professionally hosted by Travis and Tai Dornfeld, native to the Black Hills.

As a previous resident of Rapid City, I understand these older homes come with a story and a need for extra love. Unfortunately, we didn't enjoy the extra insect's coming through the window a/c units. My son is sensitive to insect bites and got a good spider bite during the night. Pans could use an update.

Comfortable and Convenient
This is a great property for friends or family looking for a reasonably priced house in a safe convenient property. As advertised, it is an older property that has been updated. Not for those looking for "posh" but perfect otherwise. It is very clean, and we enjoyed the front porch for chilling after a day of sightseeing and the electric fireplace for starting the day with a cup of coffee.

Great place to stay, very clean!!!!
Great place, very cute and clean! The property has a nice backyard and the ac wall units keep the house cool. We co-sleep with our baby, so we enjoyed the very firm king-size mattress, but all guest may not. Good location with an AMAZING park (Canyon Lake Park) 2-minute drive away!

Perfect!
This bungalow was perfect for our family of 5. It was a great location for ease of navigating all the places we wanted to explore in the Hills. It was also great having the grocery store and restaurant options so close. The evenings were so peaceful and we were able to enjoy sitting on the patio, grilling and the fire pit. If we are in the area again we will definitely stay again.

Cute home for short stay
We were moving to a different state and wanted somewhere that we would be able to fit our 30 ft Penske truck along with our other vehicles. We were able to check in early and the truck fit perfectly in the rv parking section. We brought our dogs and they enjoyed the yard so much. The location was perfect and quiet, we enjoyed our stay very much!

Cute and quirky
This property worked great for us, group of 4 with 5th visitor. It’s an older home that has been fixed up. Two really big bedrooms that were comfortable plus a nice third. Nice appliances and amenities (really great out door spaces we took advantage of early morning/late evening. Great host that provided lots of useful local info, was super responsive and accepts pets. WOOF. It’s an older home so don’t expect a perfect layout, wide doorways and huge bathrooms. I would definitely stay here again when I return to Rapid City.

Rapid City Stay
Spent 2 nights in Rapid City. Nice location to parks and convenient to attractions. Easy location in quiet neighborhood, however the neighborhood was a little questionable. It seemed safe, but houses were small and many were unkept.

Looking for a place to stay takes time. Think about what you need and location. This one was close to family, hiking on Mhill and Dairy Queen for us. The things that mattered. A weekend getaway that will happen again.

Rapid city bungalow
A small house with various additions, not great construction but clean and nicely decorated. House has a slight odor of old cigarette smoke and cat urine maybe in the bathrooms.. kitchen and living area are nice. Comfortable beds. Older neighborhood but quiet.

Great stay
This location was perfect for our family and was close to everything we wanted to see and do(including mt rushmore! Also shopping and restaurants. The hosts also had a great touch with sending us information on places to eat and things to see and do while we were there. We had a couple issues that needed attention(minor things). And the hosts were very quick to respond and take care of us. We stayed for 7 nights and have nothing but good memories to take with us!

Quiet
The neighbor that the property is very quiet. We traveled with our two chihuahuas, the fenced in yard was a bonus. We did not spend much time other than sleeping as we were seeing all the sites that are assessable for day trips.

Thank you for letting us stay in your lovely home. It was an enjoyable stay. It's small but spacious house with rooms plenty to spare. The owner has very thoughtfully placed useful stuff around the home. We highly recommend this place and if we ever come to SD again, we will definityly look you up. Thank you.

Nice little house for stay in Rapid City about 35 minutes to Mt. Rushmore
The house had everything we needed. The appliances are relatively new and everything worked well. The fridge even has water and ice in the door. Don't overpack as you can do a load of clothes in about 2 hours. There were plenty of supplies & linens, like TP, paper towels, trash bags, dish detergent, laundry detergent, towels, hand towels, and wash clothes. I even found the Windex to clean off all those bugs off my windshield. The AC units are window units (as listed in the property description) and kept us cool. It was probably the hottest week of the year the week we were there and the AC definitely worked overtime that week. There is one shower so it takes a while to get everyone through the shower. Overall a very good spot to stay and visit the area.

Terrific little house!
We were only there 1 night but really enjoyed our stay! We grilled out in the backyard and had a great time just visiting with family. The location was perfect for us, close to family and the golf course where our tournament was. And the host was excellent at communicating with us and responded quickly to messages sent. She also let us check in early, which was greatly appreciated! Highly recommend!
