About this house rental

The Owls Nest is our Vacation home in the beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota. Our family uses the Owls Nest several times every year. We do rent it a few times each year. Our home is located a mile high and has spectacular 30-mile views from the very large deck. We like to have families and their friends at our home, rather than all male groups. Please keep group size to maximum of 12 total people, including children, our property manager will check on number of people at our house The house is located near several ATV trails, you can drive to the trails from the house. We cannot provide trailer parking for very large trailers on Edelweiss Mountain. No trailer parking on our lot on Edelweiss Mountain as there is not enough level space. Trailer parking for small, medium trailers can be on my adjacent vacant lot. No trailer parking of any size on our house lot and no parking of vehicles or trailers on the roads. Contact the Owner about trailer parking.
The Owl's Nest is centrally located in the Black Hills on Edelweiss Mountain near beautiful Lake Pactola Reservoir just off of Hwy 385. The central location puts you within 30 minutes of most of the major attractions in the Black Hills.

This is an often-used personal vacation home; thus is has lots of added comforts to make yours and the owners' stay super comfortable. Wow! One new King bed, Two queen beds, Six twin beds with new Mattresses, a pack & Play crib and a queen sized futon. You and your family can enjoy all those beds, three floors of space, three full bathrooms, an over sized kitchen, living room, lower family room, a bonus room above the garage, and an over sized deck with a view overlooking the Black Hills. The garage is reserved for the owners storage. This home has air-conditioning for the kitchen and dinning area and upper bedroom. We have ceiling fans in 3 of the 4 closed door bedrooms and in the living room and bonus room. The lower level of the house is partially in the ground on 3 sides and is always cool in summer. The house does not have wi-fi but has good mobile phone service. We have two Tv's with service by dish network. We are located a mile high on Edelweiss mountain and our area is usually 10-12 degrees cooler than the reported temp in Rapid City. The summer nights cool off very nicely, bring a jacket.

The Owl's Nest is beautifully decorated, very clean, and completely furnished. The views from the decks of this home provide a sweeping panorama of Black Hills scenery
The Owl's Nest is often used by more than one family

The house was centrally located. The kitchen was fully stocked with dishes so made it easy to have home cooked meals. Lots of rooms/beds for family or friends.

Had a great trip to Mount Rusmore and area attractions. The Owls Nest provides just what we needed in comfort and layout. Nice view, rustic feel and relaxed stay. Everything worked out great…

The home is located in a quiet and peaceful setting. The views off the deck to the northwest are amazing. There is plenty of sky visible for stargazing. You are a bit off the beaten path, but still centrally located in the Hills so you can get anywhere quickly. Our group of eleven had plenty of room to spread out, with ample room in the common areas for us to all be together as well. Bring your wasp and hornet spray. Yellowjackets are numerous and we had to dispatch several. Overall, it was a minor issue and did not affect our enjoyment of the property. One thing I wish the owners would change is the requirement to have the towels washed, dried and folded before departure. In order to get out of the house by checkout time, we had to forgo the use of any towels on the morning of departure. Overall, a great experience, wonderful facility and an amazing setting. I would highly recommend this property!

Very private and quiet property. Had great times in the evenings playing cornhole and socializing. Not as close to the attractions as we normally stay but didn’t end up being an issue, just had to allow more time to get back and forth. Was very warm for the hills while we were there. Central air would have been a plus, but did cool at night. Overall was a great stay.
