Cozy Home away from Home!

This cozy modern farmhouse is conveniently situated in Rapid City's desirable Westside location. We intend for you to have a comfortable quality experience while staying in this newly renovated home. We have a modern fully-equipped kitchen with a gas stove, farmhouse sink, coffee bar, pantry, and cabinets with large pullout drawers for extra storage. The house includes WIFI, TV, board games and cards as well as a few toys for children to play with.

We are walking distance to the top rated Meadow Brook Elementary School and Meadowbrook Golf Course. Easy access to hiking, biking, and fishing with beautiful Canyon Lake park only a mile away. If you're adventurous and love the outdoors this spot is perfect to ride your bike and find some trails at Chuck Lien family park or Founders park where you can soak in lovely views of the city.

If you're looking to fill your appetite we're a short drive or bike ride to Marco's Pizza, Culver's, Qdoba, Jimmy John's or BWW to name a few. Otherwise stock up at Safeway or Family Fare which is about a mile away to cook those home cooked meals. This family friendly quiet neighborhood invites you to watch the sunrise with a cup of coffee or tea on the front porch. In the afternoon's you can enjoy a relaxing time in the large backyard while you sit on the back patio and soak in the sun or enjoy an outdoor fire or BBQ.

The Black Hills will not disappoint you with its many outdoor activities and geological formations. We've got it all from jeeping, fishing, hiking, snow skiing, boating, biking, and much more! Take a day trip to the famous Mt Rushmore, or a scenic drive a long Needles Highway, or visit the Crazy Horse monument and Custer State park just to name a few.

We have full confidence you'll create magical memories and enjoy your stay. What are you waiting for!

Outstanding Home In Rapid City
Can't beat this property for Western Rapid City location, cleanliness, and comfort. No issues during stay. Central to Black Hills sites to the southwest and northwest. This is how every VRBO should be. Highly recommend. The price is right as well.

My son plays basketball at the local university and they had a Thanksgiving weekend game. Friends and family came in to support and enjoy the time of thanks together. The home was perfect in every way and our hosts were so accommodating; thank you! We’ll be back for sure.

Great Choice!
This cozy house worked wonderfully for us (two 60+ couples.) We couldn’t have asked for a better location as our base to sightsee the surrounding Rapid City areas. The cute house was spotless inside and out, with plenty of room to spread out. The only slight issue was the sink in the main bathroom was very slow to drain. We would highly recommend Cozy Home Away From Home!

Exactly as pictured & convenient location!
We stayed here for a Black Hills vacation and this home was perfect for our family. It's cute, great set-up for kids, and was easy to get to restaurants, Mt. Rushmore, Custer, or north to Spearfish, etc. We loved that there were five separate sleeping spaces. The basement was a fun hang-out area with a newer bathroom & separate bedroom space. It was nice that the hosts provided a few "extras" like popcorn, cold water in the wine fridge, and some condiments in the fridge. We would stay here again.

This house was perfect for our family adventure!
The house was perfect for my family vacation and large enough for our family of 6. It was in a great location for our planned adventures to Badlands, Mt Rushmore, Custer State Park, Devils Tower, and Spearfish Canyon. We also booked an off-road UTV adventure in the Black Hills. The house had all of the supplies for cooking dinner and packing lunches. It had all of the essentials to feel like our home away from home.

Perfect for state tournament weekend
We decided to go with a house vs hotel for the state tournament weekend and it was definitely the right choice. Great location, only a 5-10 drive to The Monument and close to downtown with wonderful restaurants. We had two families stay which worked out perfect. We each had our own space yet comfortable living spaces to visit, play games and create memories. Hosts were great and VERY quick to respond to questions. 5⭐️

The house was so comfortable and even better than the pictures. It had a great yard, plenty of space, and was well-suited for kids and families. The house had everything we could possibly need, and the location was perfect for getting to town and exploring the area. Angela and Mike were very responsive. I recommend it!

Comfortable - great location
Our stay was excellent. The house was great for what we were looking for. Great for two couples with separate bedrooms on main floor and in basement. Very clean. Great proximity to downtown Rapid City, Mount Rushmore, Custer State Park, Bear Country, Sturgis, Deadwood and the Badlands. Great restaurants. My only recommendation would be a mattress topper to the bed on main floor end of hall on right. It was a little firm but there are plenty of beds and some people prefer firm so not a big deal. We would definitely stay here again. Homeowners were attentive and available for our questions. Thanks again! We loved our trip and thanks for letting us stay in your beautiful home.

Wonderful stay, excellent hosts!!
Too many good things to list with this home but I’ll try: Home is in a clean and quiet part of town. We felt very safe. Huge private backyard my kids loved. Hosts literally thought of everything, high attention to detail. We wanted for nothing! Drink station and drink fridge were so fun and handy! Felt very clean. Lots of extra sheets/pillows Great toys kept my kids busy 2 tv areas was very convenient Master bedroom downstairs was large with room for your suitcases etc. Kitchen well stocked Everything decorated so well, felt very homey. Really a lovely place to stay, we hope to stay again in the future. Thanks Decker Family! The Allens.

All the comforts of home
We've stayed in lots of VRBOs over the last 10 years and this is definitely one of the best. Clean, comfortable and stylish. The homeowners thought things really well and included lots of nice little homey touches that made the stay more enjoyable. The kitchen is very well stocked for cooking and we also enjoyed using the grill. While it is a small house, as you can see in the photos, they make great use of the available space and the two family areas are plenty big. The eating area is tight and the backdoor area is a bit of a bottleneck with everyone having to remove their shoes as they come in, but those are minor complaints. If you plan to do all the stuff in and around Rapid City, like Badlands, Custer, Rushmore, Devil's Tower, Spearfish Canyon, etc. then you cannot beat the location.

Nice 4 bedroom house in Rapid City
We stayed here with our family of 5 to do all of the tourist things in South Dakota (Rushmore, Badlands, etc). Rapid City is a great hub to get to all these places, and this house was a very nice place to stay. Property was clean, owners were very accommodating. Kitchen was well stocked. Beds were overall pretty comfortable as rentals go. They had a working gas grill which was nice, we grilled out several nights during our stay. Cornhole boards which the kids enjoyed. Only a couple of minor drawbacks. The A/C unit for the house is really not big enough to cool the house down during the warmest part of the day, we couldn't get it below 78 degrees until about 8 PM, which was a little tricky since we were trying to put our youngest kids to bed at that time and the house was still pretty warm. Also, some individual mini bar soaps and shampoos for the bathrooms would be a nice touch. Overall a very good rental property and we would definitely stay here again if in the area.
