I bought a fixer upper in 2005 and set the house up as a duplex with separate entrances & door codes. I started my bed and breakfast in my home in 2006 to supplement my income while raising my son alone. We've enjoyed seeing same guests year after year as well as meeting new ones yearly. My home improvements do keep me quite busy. Oh, the joy :) Now that my son is over 18 years old I am transitioning my main floor into more of a vacation rental. The entire main floor is the guests area. I live in the basement. **Sometimes I have a roommate, or my son staying with me. Once in awhile I have a friend or family member (s) staying with me while they are visiting the area. **Tourist season is only about 6 months so I do have personal belongings, pictures, and knick knacks, etc upstairs in the duplex.
3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms 1,500 sq ft main floor duplex/apartment with full kitchen (with utensils, 1 set pots and pans provided) and laundry; extra spot in the garage to park your vehicle; towels, and bedding provided. PLUS an additional 1,500 sq ft gaming area which include: 6 person spa, 8 ft slate pool table, soft tip dart board (pls bring your own darts) , ping pong table; foosball; front porch and back patio with gas grill and gas fire pit to enjoy the evenings. The home has central air, Peacock & regular tv channels, Wi-Fi, dining room seating for 8 and kitchen seating for 6.
I do check central air, which is upstairs (the part of duplex you reserve), every few days to make sure guests are comfortable and that central air is working properly. I appreciate you leaving the thermostat on 70 all year since it controls the heating and cooling for whole home. If thermostat is set below 70 degrees during summer months, it'll be subject to freezing up and then it quits working for days and gets extremely hot in home!!! There are plenty of extra blankets and fans for your personalized comfort.
*** Extremely important for ANY questions or concerns to call/ text me immediately (day or night) so your concerns can be addressed while you are still here!!!! I can’t fix or clarify anything if I’m not aware of it and/or once you have checked out. Thank you:)
**Sorry I cannot accepts pets since my son's dog may or may not be on property.**
*** The 1-3 bedrooms and 1-2 baths in basement may be available for an additional cost. (Photos BR #4, #5 & #6 & Baths #4 & #5) Message me for details, pics. ***
**** No illegal drugs may be brought anywhere on property****
*My son and I live in the basement of the home.* (See Above)
**Family dog may be on property, but not in your part of home. He is harmless.**
Call or message me if you'd like ANY clarification on the property OR amenities BEFORE you book!!
If you want to stay at a newer, secluded log home in the woods with a breathtaking view, my place is probably not suitable for you. If you want to stay at a homey place in Rapid City that a self made individual started with hard work and determination my place may work fine for your group. :)
***Hot tub is a 1996 so I can’t guarantee it’ll be working but I’ll do my best.
***RING doorbell at front door. Records few seconds when you approach door & when you are going out door. ***PLEASE check with your cell phone provider and make sure that you'll have cell service in South Dakota. PLEASE make sure you have my address and phone number written down on paper, just in case. ***** CHECK IN !!! Pls text/call my cell # when you are an hour out so I can meet you at my plc & show you around & explain where to park !!!!! Thx!!!
