Set beneath the pines near Nemo, this lower-level walkout apartment offers a comfortable, quiet Black Hills stay with room to spread out. It is part of a larger cabin property
This is a great fit for families, couples traveling together, or anyone who wants a true cabin setting without sacrificing space or convenience.
If you are looking for a larger home, rent the entire property and have all three units for your family, making the ultimate group spot!
The property sits in the woods along a gravel road. You will be surrounded by trees, wildlife, and fresh air. While there are other vacation rentals on the property, each unit is intentionally separated with its own parking areas, entry doors on opposite sides of the buildings, and other touches to preserve privacy.
The Space
This spacious 2-bedroom, 1-bath walkout apartment blends lodge-style comfort with timeless Black Hills charm. Natural wood ceilings, solid craftsmanship, and a cozy fireplace set a warm, inviting tone. Guests can enjoy flexible sleeping arrangements, including a king bed, queen bed, queen pull-out sofa, queen Murphy bed, and a full-size Murphy bed.

This is a lower-level walkout apartment. While it is part of a larger building, there is no shared internal access to the upstairs unit. You have a completely private entrance accessed by walking around to the side/front of the lower level.
Parking & Driveway: The property is accessed via a gravel road and shares a driveway with two other vacation rentals on the same large lot. However, you have dedicated parking and driveway near your unit’s entrance.
Location: Located in the woods of Nemo, you are centrally located for excursions to Deadwood, Sturgis, and Rapid City. Expect to see local wildlife right in the yard!
We’re available daily from 7 am to 10 pm by call, text, or message, whatever’s easiest for you! After 10 pm, we switch to emergency-only mode, and phone calls are the best way to reach us. Just a heads-up: I’m a deep sleeper, so if it’s urgent, you might need to call twice to wake me up! 😴📞
