Good Location but pretty worn.

This is a good location and the grounds are nice. The house is very worn. Furniture and Kitchen very old and worn. Propane heater in main bedroom blows right on bed so you are hot or cold. Towels and linens are stiff and do not smell fresh. Probably ok for a 1-2 night stay in the summer but early October was cold at night and the cabin felt cold. A manual propane heater was in kitchen but no thermostat so you had to turn off and on. Price is ok just be aware what you are getting. Only bath is in main cabin.

Hope to stay at the 'Grizzly Gulch Cabin' again

We stayed the 3rd week of September and had an absolutely awesome time. It's a great little cabin. We sat by the fire almost every evening until dark. The deer come by every morning and evening. We didn't see any donkeys in Custer State park so I fed our purchased donkey pellets to the deer. The description doesn't do justice to the little stream a couple feet from the kitchen door. They've built little rock dams to create a babbling effect in the stream, which is suitable for wading on hot days. The host, Linda, is great. We hope to see her and the cabin again next year!! P.S. no TV, but cell service is good and mobile data reception is good.

Rustic Cabin with Privacy

The cabin was exactly what we were looking for during our visit to the Black Hills! It was private and secluded and we felt the kids could be as loud as they wanted. They especially loved the bunnies and chickens and even named them! I wanted to stay and live there. Beautiful area and we saw so many deer, what a delight! Linda was a wonderful host and the sweetest person you’ll meet. She was fast to respond. We loved getting to know her. Wish we could’ve had more time! If privacy and a rustic cabin feel is what your looking for, this is the place for you!

Three separate cabins. One main cabin with kitchen and bathroom. Two other cabins for sleeping. One of the extra cabins had microwave and mini fridge but neither had bathrooms. Outhouse available. It was great for our purpose but renter should be aware. Also no Wi-Fi.
