WHAT I LOVE ABOUT THE HOME

What I love about this property is the way you are greeted by the man with wings sculpture on your way in and that Mr. Kreitz loved this place enough to do that and to carefully place this amazing Squared-Log home over looking the beautiful pond. I love the live water as I know how important that is here in the Black Hills. It frees one to have their own live water. I love that the 168 acres is completely surrounded by Black Hills National Forest at the same time close enough to town for a family to live. I love that the original name of the land was Angels Rest. This is a special package.
