Private, quiet and chocked full of diversity!! Enjoy all types of bird and wildlife viewing, including turkey, deer and elk. The Bungalow offers a magnificent location for the outdoor enthusiast, yet, centrally located for easy access to all Black Hills attractions. Rapid City is 30 miles, Deadwood is 15 miles and Sturgis is 25 miles. Essentially all attractions are located within a one-hour drive. Located on 54-privately-owned acres, the Bungalow also offers access to the Black Hills National Forest ….. a one-million-acre, public "playground" for your outdoor enjoyment!
Explore the diversity of the Black Hills! Summertime fun includes all types of recreational activities ….. mountain biking via the 111-mile Centennial Trail (eight miles from the Bungalow), “easy” bicycling / hiking via the 109-mile Mickelson Trail (nine miles from the Bungalow), four-wheeling via the extensive Black Hills ATV / UTV road system and, of course, hiking, camping and fishing. The Black Hills has an extensive lake and stream system, for leisure activities and the fishing enthusiast. Further, Reausaw Lake is only a short walk away. This small lake is owned by the South Dakota Game & Fish Department and stocked with trout for excellent catching success, especially for the young angler. Or, if you enjoy fly fishing, you can access our private pond, stocked with Rainbow, Tiger, Brown and Snake River Cutthroat trout (some restrictions apply).
AND, the owners of the Bungalow, Doug & Denise Miller, are readily available to make your stay completely enjoyable. The Millers believe in customer service and will give you individual and immediate attention. Try getting that degree of personal attention from a property management firm!
The Millers are looking forward to your stay!
PS. And, how do past guests think the Millers have taken care of them? The Bungalow has NUMEROUS positive reviews. Further, the ultimate in customer satisfaction is the number of repeat guests.

To summarize....for 2023, 47.6% of reservations were by returning guests and for 2024, 49.5% of reservations were by returning guests. Thus, the Millers are indeed serious about customer satisfaction!!
The Bungalow is located in a building, which was built in 2004. This apartment (aka. the Bungalow) was used by us, for three years, during the construction of our home. The 600-square-foot Bungalow has a private entrance and consists of one, large room, with a separate, full bathroom. The large room consists of: 1) a bedroom with a king, Tempurpedic-brand mattress, 2) a fully, furnished kitchen, which includes a full-sized refrigerator, smooth-topped stove and microwave, (Note: Does not include a dishwasher, washer or dryer), 3) a 50” HDTV with satellite TV, a surround-sound system and a DVD player, with lots of DVDs and 4) other apartment amenities. The Bungalow is well stocked, for your convenience, which will make your stay, truly, your “home-away-from-home.” Also included is a Weber propane grill, picnic table, a horseshoe pit, a fire pit and other outdoor-activity opportunities. NOTE: A) The Bungalow is located in a detached building, about 70’ from our home. Although we will be in close proximity to each other, rest assured you will receive the highest-level of consideration, when it comes to your privacy and the quietness of your surroundings. B) From Nemo Road, access to the Bungalow is via ¼-mile of well-maintained, gravel road. C) If you plan on “trailing” ATVs, UTVs or a motorcycle to the Black Hills, rest assured our property has plenty of space for trailer parking. D) The Bungalow is equipped with a land-line phone, which is shared with the hosts. Domestic, long-distance calls and the wireless internet are included, at no additional charge. FYI, due to the mountainous-terrain in our area, cell-phone service, OUTSIDE the Bungalow, does not exist. However, INSIDE the Bungalow, WiFi calling is available via a smart phone.
