Osprey Retreat: Tranquil Black Hills Stay, Private Pool in Summer

The Osprey Poolhouse Retreat – Where the Black Hills Slow Down for You

The first thing you notice is the stillness.
Not silence—the Black Hills are alive with the whisper of pines, the distant murmur of a creek, and the occasional cry of an osprey wheeling high above Nemo Valley. But here, at the Osprey, the noise of everyday life feels miles away.

Step inside, and it’s as if the outside world presses pause. Sunlight spills through wide windows, painting the rooms in gold as it catches the glint of the heated saltwater pool just outside (the pool is seasonal... it's now freezing at night, we have shut it down until June ). The water shimmers—inviting, private, yours alone for the length of your stay.

Mornings That Start Slow, Evenings That Linger

Mornings here are meant for coffee on the deck, wrapped in a blanket, watching the mist lift from Nemo Mountain. Afternoons unfold in the rhythm you choose—float in the 40-foot pool, read in a sun-warmed lounger, or step out to explore winding trails and quiet valleys.

By evening, you might be sharing dinner prepared in the fully equipped kitchen, gathered in the living room for a movie night. And when darkness falls? The stars appear in a sky so clear you’ll feel like you can reach up and touch them.


Your Private Retreat, Perfected

The Osprey was designed for comfort that feels effortless.

Two King Suites & One Queen Suite – Each with a private en-suite, soft bamboo linens, and curated furnishings that feel both luxurious and personal.

Spacious Living Areas – Two gathering spaces, Roku TVs, Alexa stereo, and a welcoming sense of home, with live plants for a fresh atmosphere, and walk-in ease with no stairs.

Stay Connected, If You Want – High-speed mesh WiFi and 5G keep you in touch without pulling you away from the moment.


More Than a Place to Stay—A Place to Belong

Here, you’re steps from Nemo’s little restaurant, community center, and church. You’re also at the heart of the Black Hills’ most iconic destinations—Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Custer State Park, Deadwood, and Spearfish Canyon are just a short, scenic drive away.

And unlike anywhere else in Nemo, you have a heated saltwater pool all to yourself. No sharing, no noise—just you, your favorite people, and the luxury of privacy.

Hospitality You Can Feel

We live right here in Nemo. When you stay at the Osprey, you’re not dealing with a faceless company—you’re welcomed by hosts who care about every detail of your experience. We’re here if you need us, and invisible when you don’t. (Note, The two person infrared sauna has reached the end of its lifespan and will not be available.)

The Osprey Retreat isn’t just a getaway—it’s where relaxation becomes a memory you’ll carry home.
