Discover the rich history, outdoor activities and adventures, and iconic landmarks of the area. You can embark on a scenic drive in any direction, as Vienna Waits for You is located just:
• 45 minutes to downtown Rapid City for dining and shopping
• 15 minutes to the Lake Pactola Marina and under 25 minutes to the Sheridan Lake Marina for water fun, fishing, and boat rentals

Our cabin is ideal for families, couples, or girls' getaways. (All-male, outdoors groups would find more suitable places elsewhere in the area.) We believe it's the perfect vacation spot if you're wanting to do and see everything, or to just simply be and do nothing at all but enjoy the hills, or to find a happy medium that works for you.
We are a family of five with three young children. We LOVE coming to the cabin and making our usual trips to Bear Country, Dinosaur Park, Reptile Gardens, Storybook Island, Custer Wildlife Loop, Badlands National Park, and more. We could fish and picnic at Lake Pactola every day and be happy! We enjoy mini golfing, gold panning, and going the adventure parks for alpine slides and tubing hills. If you're interested, we are happy to share our favorite restaurants in Rapid City and our go-to places for sweet treats like ice cream and giant cookies.
Our cabin has everything we need to feel comfortable and it’s all yours to use during your stay. Vienna Waits for You is more than a vacation rental—it’s our home away from home, and we’re delighted to share it with you. We look forward to hosting you at our cabin!
Note: Our cabin sits at the top of Edelweiss Mountain. The neighborhood itself--Edelweiss Mountain--is located off Highway 385 at the end of a 3-mile gravel road that takes you up into the Black Hills. From there, expect a true but manageable climb up one mile of paved, winding mountain roads to get to the cabin. Our small SUV does just fine. However, due to the sharp turn into the driveway, trailers are not allowed.
