This property was well located to local attractions around the Black Hills and Custer. Our vacation was in October with mild weather so we didn't require any air conditioning and only a bit of heat. The accommodation was very comfortable.

Beautiful cabin close enough to Custer but far enough away so you get the quiet. Tons of space, kitchen and bathrooms stocked well with pots, pans, dinnerware and so much more. Beds were very comfortable as well. Large yard with walking/biking trail behind as well as wooded area to explore. We have stayed at numerous VRBO’s and this was the best communication I have ever had we highly recommend!

Great location, host readily available! The WiFi/tv didn’t work, but the host stepped us through things to try and had a technician to the cabin at 7:30 on a Friday night to get it working. Not super clean.. water spots on the kitchen window, hair/lint on the bathroom floor, empty water bottle in our bedroom when we checked in. Plenty of towels and linens, laundry is a huge bonus! The kids had a blast sledding!

Thank you for your review and for highlighting our location and responsiveness—we’re glad we were able to get the WiFi and TV resolved quickly, even on a Friday night. We appreciate you bringing the cleanliness concerns to our attention as well. This has already been addressed with our cleaning team to ensure it doesn’t happen again. We’re happy to hear your family enjoyed the towels, laundry, and that the kids had a great time sledding. We’d love the opportunity to host you again in the future!

Great place to stay. Air conditioning was a little weak but it was very hot outside, unusual for the Black Hills.
