Thank you for visiting........ 

Thank you for taking the time to read a little about us!  Let us introduce ourselves, we are Sam Williams and Tabitha Burnette.  We are the owner and operators of Elevation Property Management.  We reside right here in the Black Hills, this is our home and our community.  For much of our careers we both worked in corporate America but dreamed of something much bigger.  Our family has been in the hospitality industry for 50+ years, each in a little different facet.  As the Black Hills popularity grew so did our curiosity.  How can we blend our families established hospitality industry background with our passion to bring more visitors to the beautiful hills of South Dakota?  It was through our own vacation rental experiences that our vision became reality.  We had some good experiences with vacation rentals and some not so good experiences, probably like many of you.  Through those experiences we learned a lot about what made some experiences better than others and from that we set out on a quest to build the most trusted and premier vacation rental company for not only our guest but our home owners as well.  Here we are today living our dream as owners of Elevation Property Management and we can not wait to be a part of your very special vacation!

Sincerely,

Sam and Tabitha
