1st vrbo experience, not a fan
Communication with the host was easy and efficient. Cabin was pretty much what we expected, we were traveling with 2 dogs, so the cabin worked out well for them. We've never stayed at a vrbo before, so weren't sure what to expect, but were a bit put off by the "binder" on the table with instructions on how to care for the cabin. We've always been clean and well behaved guests anywhere we've stayed, but to have an outline of what was expected and how to clean up after ourselves and directions on how to strip the beds when we left was a little over the top, had a difficult time relaxing while at the cabin, felt monitored. Again, we are clean people, whenever we've left a property, even a hotel, we've always picked up after ourselves, gathered all the laundry (towels, etc.) and placed them in a pile in the bathroom, took our own trash out, etc. But to be told to strip the bedding and place it in a basket, vacuum the floors, sweep, etc. kind of took the vacation feel away and put it back to being at home, if I wanted to do chores, I would have planned day trips and stayed home. We were charged for "cleaning fees" and a pet fee, pet fees were a little high, but expected. We cleaned everything, we vacuumed, wiped out appliances, cleaned the bathroom, shower, etc, I'm thinking we'll stay at a hotel next time we travel and save ourselves from having to be our own maid service and charged for it too. The area was great and we enjoyed our time when we were away from the cabin.

Wonderful October stay
This property feels like you’re out in the country, yet you are three minutes from downtown Custer. A cozy, comfortable cabin that is a great home base for a Black Hills/Custer State Park vacation. The owners are attentive and available, and the cabin has nearly everything you’ll need. Highly recommended.
