We had a wonderful time celebrating our daughter’s wedding in Rapid City. Our stay at The Barney House was very comfortable and was perfect for our family. The outside patio was a relaxing way to end our busy days. There was a slight misunderstanding and Cody handled the situation very well. When visiting RC we will definitely book the Barney house for our family.

This house served as the perfect jumping-off point for out trip. It is right in the historic district and close to downtown. We were able to get to Badlands NP, Crazy Horse Memorial, Custer State Park, and Mount Rushmore with ease. The house comfortably accommodated 11 people, including 2 small children. It looks like it has been redone recently; beautifully so, if that’s the case. If we have occasion to return, we will definitely try to stay here!

🎶 I love you, you love me--We love the Barney House in R.C.! 🎶 😊

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.

Beautiful Historic Home

My family loved staying at the historic Barney Home. The location is great for visiting Rapid City, the Black Hills and the Badlands. The listing is accurate and the home was clean and well maintained. Water pressure was good, beds are firm, the off street parking is excellent and we loved having the backyard and fenced patio to enjoy at the end of a busy day. The house is spacious and we liked that the bedrooms are spread out enough we didn't feel crowded. Communicating with Cody was very easy and he always responded quickly, including prior to our stay. Any questions or concerns we had were immediately resolved. There was a minor issue with the kitchen faucet which Cody had taken care of within 15 min of my text. Would definitely recommend this property.

Family Gathering, Exactly What We Needed

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.
