Great place! We are definitely returning. You can’t go wrong with this one

Just finished our stay at the house and all I can say is that it’s definitely one to stay at. The location is just a little ways off the road and provides a very quiet atmosphere. Sitting on the deck in the evening and watching the deer out in the field with a fire going is very relaxing. A very large elk walked across the field in the late afternoon and made for some great photos. Fire pit is perfect! Everything was! The communication with Jessica was very good. We enjoyed everything and are planning to return next year.

Sturgis Stay

We rented this gorgeous property to attend the Sturgis bike rally. Its only 20 minutes from downtown Sturgis. However we were quickly inspired by the nature surrounding the property and decided that it was better to explore the grandeur of South Dakota. We used Rusty Meadows as a base station for daily rides to explore Spearfish Canyon, Deadwood, Mount Rushmore, Needles Highway, Iron Mountain, and Custer State Park. While staying at the Lodge,we woke up to gorgeous views of a green meadow and majestic Black Hills. Following daily rides, we unwound while taking advantage of all the amenities availed to us by the owners of this amazing log cabin. We smoked cigars and sipped bourbon by an outdoor firepit; we took hikes through wildflower meadows; we grilled steaks on the grill; and we fell asleep each night under a thick blanket of stars. Sturgis was fun, but it is just one superficial layer of the beauty that South Dakota has to offer, and the Rusty Meadows Lodge is the perfect venue to immerse yourself. Thank you Jessica and John!!

Family Vacation

Property was as advertised. Sometimes pictures are taken so well that the actual look is not the same. That was NOT the case with this property. There was plenty of room for all the kids. It was nice to hang out in the large yard. Bunk Beds were an absolute hit with the kids. There were nice little touches like games and toys for they young ones. One thing to keep in mind if you are a city family like ours, 20 miles in the hills and mountains is not the same as 20 miles on a highway or interstate. So going on adventures was a bit of a drive but the scenery made it worth it and the trips back gave time for the kids to rest, nap and rest for the evening activites. I would highly reccomend this property for you next family vacation!

About the host

Hosted by Jessica Sperl

Welcome to Rusty Meadows Lodge in the South Dakota Black Hills! My name is Jessica Sperl, up above you have my husband John and our 5 kids, Jadyn, Rain, Mason, Tyce and Jori. We are from Medford Wisconsin. Here is a back story of how we came to the Black Hills. We visited the black hills in June of 2019. We stayed at another rental a few miles away. We fell in love with the area! So beautiful and peaceful! We thought “maybe we should have a place out here, we could rent it out and use it when we need a little mountain air!” John comes out this way every fall to hunt so why not! So in April of 2020 we found this fixer upper hidden in a meadow. I saw potential unlike my husband. So we bought it and started renovations in June of 2020. FINALLY finished in May of 2021! This has been a true labor of love. Many trips out here for a week at a time. All done by our amazing friends and family! Hard to believe we have such great people in our lives they’d drop everything and come out to help with only a payment of using the lodge! So Please enjoy our Lodge! If there is anything that you need or things I don’t have there and I should just let us know. You can get ahold of me through the website you booked through or call or text me at(715)225-9040 Enjoy!

Why they chose this property

We take pride in having everything you will need! We want your stay to be as relaxing at it can be! We have put a lot of thought and work into making this house just right. We found the best location away from other houses in a meadow bordering the national forest. I truly hope you enjoy your stay!

What makes this property unique

Our property borders the National Forest, the trails start at the end of the driveway. There is plenty of room to park trailers. You have use of half of the garage. The house was renovated in a very rustic and creative way! I hope you enjoy it! This was a labor of love!!
