RV LIVING | DOWNTOWN HILL CITY SOUTH DAKOTA | AMAZINGLY HIP AND TRENDY PLACE IN AUGUST 2021 | EP196

DOWNTOWN HILL CITY SOUTH DAKOTA WAS AN AMAZINGLY HIP AND TRENDY PLACE IN AUGUST OF 2021! It totally blew us all away! Walking thru all the downtown shops was capped off with a delicious, authentic German lunch entree at the Alpine Inn. Both of the wineries we toured were first class! Firehouse Winery and Brewery had great beers AND food. We LOVED the large, covered, outdoor patio behind the building.
Prairie Berry Winery was another superior operation, with very fun, unusual wine flavors and combinations. It won over 1000 INTERNATIONAL awards. We could see why. Cherry Crab Apple Wine anyone?
If you chose to visit the Hill City SD area, check to see what special events might be going on at the same time. We lucked out and were able to attend the August 27th and 28th 2021 Hill City Wine, Brew and BBQ Festival!

    I grew up in eastern SD and have been to the Black Hills a bunch of times but never spent as much time in many of these towns, other then Deadwood. These videos from people from different states visiting the Black Hills area make me wish I didn’t move away for so long and forgot my home state. I moved back to SD and feel a need to rediscover the best part of South Dakota.

    My wife and I are both from Rapid City. We had just gone full time RV'ing August 1. Aug 15th, we drove in to the Hart Ranch Resort from Colorado. So we were only a few miles away from Hill City. I'm glad you tried out Prairie Berry. They are the winery to hit! I hoped you tried The Wild Bill and Gold Digger labels. Two of my favorites. My wife knows the founders and owners of Prairie Berry. Great stuff! Oh BTW, we have learned so much from your channel!

    No one I know likes those rails on the sidewalk. My father-in-law is in his 80's and has been having breakfast in the cafe for a very long time, in fact some of my husbands high school band things are hanging in the back room. The rails make it difficult for anyone with motion disabilities. Our home base is in Hill city, we can see the back of Mount Rushmore thru the trees. We only go to the Alpine for "special" stuff. I'm not a big beef eater...but my husbands family is. As for firehouse...our go to lunch place. We buy a lot of wine and beer..We love the smokejumper and blackhills brown, but then we really love dark beer...

    Mark, I am not certain you have sufficiently evaluated your security. Under the inky blackness of darkness a bunch of burly, Black Hills bikers could lift your Dutch Star, and slip away with the eBikes, Krypton locks and chain without you noticing. But with the first prize in the Lawrence Welk danceathon you and Sue won you can buy new eBikes.
