In charming Lakota Lakes Encampment, find this beautiful seven-bedroom retreat for a peaceful getaway away from routine life.

As you step inside, you'll be greeted by a fully stocked kitchen, complete with Wolf electric stove and oven, Subzero refrigerator, outdoor grill, and all the necessary appliances and utensils to whip up delicious meals. Full size washer and dryer complete the well equipped laundry and pantry room. Unwind by the fireplace or take advantage of the relaxing deck furniture for a hassle-free stay.

Wake up to serenity in the two ensuite master bedrooms in the main house, one with king bed and one with queen bed. Find a quiet place to catch up on email or make phone calls in the lounge area between the bedrooms.

The lookout tower boasts one queen ensuite bedroom and one full extra bathroom on the main floor. Four bedrooms up the winding staircase feature sleeping for seven in four bedrooms with twin-bed trundles. The top deck of the tower provides 360 degree views of the vast Black Hills, a great spot for sunset.

Venture out and explore nearby Custer State Park, just a 12-minute drive away, or marvel at the iconic Mount Rushmore National Memorial, through the large windows or on thedeck outside your doorstep. For an even closer look, head to Mount Rushmore itself, just an 18-minute drive on iconic Iron Mountain Road which features three tunnels and the famous 'Pig Tail' bridges. If hiking is your speed, are miles of trails to nearby historical mines and homesteads start at the front door. Feeling fishy? Drop a hook in Lakota Lake, less than 5 minute walk from the house.

Enjoy the convenience of on-site parking and the comfort of air conditioning and heating throughout the home. Indulge in entertainment with the provided games, or simply relax on the porch and soak in the serene surroundings. With 4.5 bathrooms, towels, and basic soaps, you'll have everything you need to feel right at home.

House was amazing. Architecture is really cool. Just a couple suggestions. 1) might be on us but look out tower houses most of the bedrooms. We had littles which meant they were in a separate building. Would have liked to have known. 2) they are tight w their towel game. Only two towels per bathroom which for an extended stay was annoying. Otherwise it was a spectacular home w better views

Everything was perfect. One of the best places we have ever stayed at. Host was amazing also. They took the time to tell us where to see some unique things and showed photos of the wildlife in the area. Cant’ thank them enough for letting us stay at such a wonderful place

We really enjoyed our stay at this beautiful home. The home is set in the woods and is private and peaceful. You don’t see any other homes but the view of Mount Rushmore from the kitchen/deck is spectacular! The 2 master suites worked out well for the 4 of us but the new/additional master was a little too warm at night without shades on any of the windows. The beds were very comfy. The deck is large and a great place to have coffee in the morning and is also perfect for unwinding after a day of hiking/exploring. The kitchen is well stocked for dinner at home. Going to dinner at either Keystone or Custer is a short drive but plugging restaurant directions in at the house is necessary before you leave and lose a signal in the hills. Communication with the host was excellent.

I loved everything about this home. My favorite part was waking up to see our 4 best friends on Mt. Rushmore every morning while enjoying a cup of coffee and getting to see them illuminated at night before going to bed. Our kids loved running and playing around the property and there is plenty of space for everyone inside as well. The kids really enjoyed getting to stay in the "tower" while the adults enjoyed the double master bedrooms and spacious kitchen. It is also located close to all the fun activities the Black Hills have to offer, we will definitely be staying here again.

We have traveled all over the world, and this is one of the most amazing properties we have ever stayed at. It's a truly extraordinary house. My only regret is that we didn't stay longer. The views of Mount Rushmore are so beautiful, and the house is so tranquil, well appointed, and serene. Pictures don't really do it justice. I so hope we can return and add a few extra days just to enjoy the quiet.

We came out to climb Black Elk Peak and decided this was the most appropriate place to stay with the replica tower. We enjoyed the beautiful setting and beautiful home!

This is a beautiful house in a great location. I would like to give it 5 stars, but a few problems prevent this. Poor communication from host. We were notified about lack of laundry facilities and construction in process less than a month before our trip (too late to make changes). I received the house rules (no TV, bring DVD’s, no shoes in the house, bring slippers) when I was at the airport heading west. We received no communication that we would have to walk through the construction to get to 5 of the 6 bedrooms, that the screened porch had been removed (there were hornets), nor about the non-functioning ice maker. Any group with mobility issues: Be aware that 5 of the 6 bedrooms are accessed through construction and 4 of the 5 bedrooms in the “bunkhouse” are on the second floor and are accessed by a spiral staircase. We were not able to bring our suitcases up to these bedrooms. Both bathrooms in the bunkhouse are on the first floor. Again, this is a beautiful house in a good location, and we had a nice time.
