Centrally located to all things in the Black Hills

This home is family owned and operated. The home is located at the top of a well-maintained street in the gold mountain town of Lead, SD. It is close to the Sanford Underground Research Facility, formally the Homestake Gold Mine. It is a cute three Bedroom, one bathroom home. The front bedroom has a queen bed, middle bedroom has a full bed, and the back bedroom has a bunk bed with twin mattresses.

The home has easy access from the highway. Guests have access to 1/2 of the garage. For size reference, we have a Subaru Tribeca that fits fine, but our Jeep Grand Cherokee is too tall.

Perfect place to come back to after exploring the Black Hills. Only 3 miles to Deadwood and 4 miles to Terry Peak Ski Area. Spearfish and Sturgis are both less than 20 miles away. Only 40-50 miles to Custer State Park, Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse, and the communities of the Southern Hills. Only 80 miles to Devil's Tower National Monument.
Close to several trailheads of the Mickelson Trail.

*Mill Street is steep, but compared to others in Lead it is not too bad. It is wide and well maintained.

***The city recently passed an ordinance that prohibits trailer parking on some streets. They have classified Mill as one of those streets. We are planning on putting a parking pad in a portion of the yard to comply with that ordinance. If we don't have it completed by the time you arrive and you have a trailer, we are okay with trailer being parked in the yard.

Cozy little place with a great location close to everything

Nice place that worked well for us. Probably a quarter mile from town, maybe 2.5 miles from deadwood. Close to everything without the expensive price. Spent time in Spearfish as well. The home was clean, well stocked and convenient.

Great place to stay for the Rally for a quiet evening

Host was incredible! Very responsive and friendly. The house was stocked beyond expectations. Owner obviously uses the property from time to time, so it was extremely clean, comfortable, and maintained. Having garage space was nice. There was also additional adjecentto the house.

Handy to Black Hill Sights, industrial neighborhood

Property was nicely appointed. Main access road under construction but not hard to get to with good directions. Across the road is a research facility which does have quite a lot of comings and goings, including semi-trucks. Leads is very quiet but very near Deadwood and other destinations.

Great for our girls trip!

The only thing was the directions sent in the email seemed to take is a very roundabout way the first night (and maybe it was user error), but once we realized where we were it was super easy to get in and out of. The house was clean, in a quiet and friendly neighborhood, and it had most if not all of the little extras we needed. The cabs were able to find us quick and get us downtown deadwood within minutes. We loved the setup of the house because we were able to talk and visit all night! From game night in the living room to giggles while we were all going to bed! It was perfect for our girls trip!

Family getaway

Our family from Texas met up with my good friend. We enjoyed the cute little town of Lead. The house was so cute, clean, stocked, and kid friendly. My daughter loved the huge Lego collection. The neighborhood was quiet with a great location just up the hill from the nice city park. The only thing was two of the bedrooms did not have a window unit/AC, only fans, and were pretty warm to sleep. My friend slept on the couch with the AC in the living room. Otherwise it was great!

Convenient Location

We stayed in Lead for the month of February 2024. Both Sarah and Stephen were very friendly and responded very quickly. We did not need to ask for much because the house was ready to go when we arrived. We skied at Terry Peak about 4 times a week. It was a little over a ten minute drive. The garage was great for storing our gear. We could enter the house from the garage without going outside. We also liked being right in town. We attended the Lead Winterfest to watch fireworks over the open pit. We went to Dakota Shivers Brewery frequently. Made us feel like locals. We were also very close to Deadwood where we attended the Mardi Gras. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit.
