Swisher Farmhouse @ Granny Flats

This beautiful 3-acre property, once the Swisher Farm, is today a working homestead, with dozens of chickens and a large garden. This quiet oasis is located within the city of Spearfish.

The rental portion of the farmhouse includes two rooms which have been recently remodeled. The white door in the kitchenette is permanently closed to homestead employees so there is no fear of surprise visitors - however you may hear us working in the basement of the house and will certainly see us outside as it is a working homestead!

Granny Flats is located in the old small-farm area of Spearfish, which used to be known for it's fruit and vegetable production. Today, much of it has been converted into large lots for homes, but the small-farm feel still pervades through a few small greenhouses and farm stands.

We're located right on two bike paths, one will lead you directly to a Crow Peak Brewery, a local food market, and two restaurants down the road, and the other one will provide access to the commercial centers of town, where there are several exceptional locally-owned restaurants and breweries.

You also have quick access to the gorgeous northern Black Hills, which are popular with hikers, bikers (both kinds!), and nature lovers. We are essentially equidistant from the Badlands (1.5 hrs), the Southern Hills (Mt. Rushmore, Wind Cave NP, Jewel Cave NP, Custer State Park; 1.5 hrs), and Devil's Tower NM (1 hr).

Peace and Quiet
We enjoyed our time at the Swisher house. The property is so quaint, and it’s a fun little explore. Waking up to deer in the front yard and seeing the chickens across the way—so charming! Spearfish is a wonderful town and we loved being so close to everything.

This property wa as quiet, comfortable, relaxing, dog friendly, and just what we were looking for. The property manager communicated well and it exactly what was listed. Wildlife, chickens, and a cute little fenced in yard for the dogs.

Our stay
Short of the heating , which we still were worm through the weekend. Not having a two burn cook top would have been ideal. And more cost savings for the Tendent.

Lovely space - just perfect getaway
My husband and I spent the weekend here with our pups and had the best time exploring Spearfish. Loved the recommendations the hosts shared for hiking and for places to go eat. The space was incredibly well kept and decorated. We felt very comfortable. The private fenced-in area was a HUGE win with our pups who loved to watch the chickens and other wildlife roam the yard. We felt confident in letting them sniff and explore from their safe fenced-in area without having to keep them on leash. As mentioned by other reviewers, the composting toilet is not a big deal at all - no smell, nothing weird other than having to step up to get to it.

Great little spot for the weekend. Close to trails and the river. Cold plunge pool right on the property. Deer visited the yard everyday we were there. Close to restaurants and breweries. Quiet!

A must stay
My wife and our dogs enjoyed a complete experience for staying at a turn of the century home. If you want to enjoy life without any distractions we highly recommend this place. The people were engaging and very personable. The location is close to a running/walking trail and dog park. We will visit again.
