Great location, walking distance to downtown. The house was clean and updated while still having charm. There was plenty of seating to host Christmas dinner. We enjoyed our stay.

We had a wonderful time at the Barney House. It is in a great location with easy access to highways. The house accommodated our large group and was well maintained with a nice yard and patio. The hosts were great at staying in touch and responsive.

This is the second time my family has stayed at this wonderful property this year. We love the location and the great communication with Cody but are in love with this historic home!
Cody has been prompt with all texts and questions and I have no problem recommending a stay here!

What a beautiful home. I would use the words, spacious, comfortable, and yet it felt modern. As a builder, I know how hard it is to make an older home look good.
This was a charming home with modern amenities. I would stay there again and again. Thank you for the hospitality and allowing us to have a comfortable home away from home.

We had a last minute trip to see family in Rapid City. We had three generations staying at the home. The house was the perfect size for our group and provided a nice gathering space for our other family members to visit for lunch, dinner and just hanging out to catch up. The kids were entertained with the games and foosball. The mudroom worked out great considering it snowed the first two days. It was just what we needed.

We loved our stay in the Barney House--I was born and raised in Rapid and have since moved away, but I bring my family to visit almost every summer. This year, we were needing a place to stay to come celebrate my mother's 90th birthday. The Barney fulfilled all of our needs; it is a beautifully restored historic property with modern amenities and lots of available sleeping arrangements. All amenities listed are accurate & in immaculate condition. The hosts have done a great job updating the property while maintaining its integrity. Communication with the hosts was seamless. Great location, close to downtown, & offers a unique way to enjoy all Rapid has to offer. Great backyard: grill, seating, yard games, etc. Thanks to the hosts for helping us discover Rapid in a new way.

Cute, well maintained home. No major issues and great communication from the host, Cody. Convenient location as well. Tips for guests: bring toilet paper and if planning to sleep on couches, they aren’t great for that. We had 16 total people (7 kids) so we knew we wouldn’t have enough bed space so we brought air mats for 2 of them and 2 slept on the couches but they just weren’t ideal for that. Beds aren’t super comfortable (memory foam I think but quite firm) but did the job. Bring your own pillows if you don’t like fluffy pillows. Overall it was a great home with modern decor mixed with classic and the water heater accommodated the many showers we’d all take in the evenings! I would recommend this home for your adventurous trip to Rapid City and the Black Hills!

This house was a beautiful place to stay in downtown Rapid. The house was easy to find and had great parking for our larger vehicles. Fantastic kitchen with all of the things we needed to cook a meal as well! Would definitely stay here again!
