The cabin was beautiful, very well stocked, and in a convenient location for exploring all the Black Hills. We appreciated the helpful notebook with clear instructions and the easy check-in process. We absolutely loved our stay here! The only downside was a sewer-like odor in the downstairs bedrooms, which unfortunately made sleeping there very difficult.

Family Vacation

Very quiet escape in the Black Hills. Great location for attractions from Keystone/Mt Rushmore and south, including Wind Cave and Hot Springs. Great for outside grilling and gathering. Not a negative, but there is not a lot of flat yard if looking to play outside games. Also not a negative but a caution if staying with very young children, the bunk bed bedroom is downstairs and steps down are slippery wood. Overall, a great stay and would stay here again.

We came into town for the Buffalo Roundup so needed a large house to accommodate everyone. This place was GREAT. Wonderful location in Custer but away from everyone. So peaceful. The house had everything we could have wanted and was very clean. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Check in and check out we’re super easy. Plenty of room for everyone. Loved the deck for morning coffee. Close to everything we wanted to do. Bonfires at night were relaxing. The big grill on the deck was perfect for dinners. 👍

Beautiful newly constructed home only a couple of miles from Custer

My family stayed here with two other families. It accommodated the 10 of us perfectly. It is in a great location, just a couple miles out of town in the middle of the beautiful black hills. We rented ATVs for 1 day and spent the other 2 days sight seeing. Couldn't ask for better!

Great Memories!

We've stayed un the Black Hills many times, and this place was special for its location in the woods, with "caves" for the kids to explore, a great covered deck we enjoyed breakfast, lunch, and dinner on (so awesome! ), and a fire ring we used many nights. The upper level includes a nice kitchen and 2 bedrooms which we very nice. The lower level had a great bedroom for the kids, and a bedroom in a more basement feeling/smelling location, with the washer and dryer and water heater sharing the space. But the outside made up for that. It really felt like getting away; we spent more time at the cabin than any we've stayed at before.

Beautiful Home in the heart of the Black Hills

We had a four night stay in this beautiful home. The kitchen is well supplied with everything you may need to do your own cooking. Our favorite gathering spot was the covered deck. It was nicely furnished with table and chairs and had a large gas grill. The Master bedroom is very large and the secondary bedrooms are small. We could make this work but it has the potential to be an issue for some adult groups. Our one disappointment was the state of the living room furniture. There was an electric recliner that did not work, a floor lamp that did not work and none of us were able to sit for any length of time on the sofa due to it being uncomfortable. Gratefully, we were outdoors for much of our stay and for the most part enjoyed this home. The location is also great as it sits outside of Custer just a couple of miles. We had great access to the sites of the Black Hills.

Rental property

Overall we enjoyed our stay, but some improvements could be made to the rental house. 1. A hand rail needs to be installed on the other side of the staircase because the stairs are dangerous where you make the curve going down. 2. More seating needs to be provided in the living room. A hard wooden bench is worthless! 3. The big hole at the edge of the driveway is dangerous and needs flags or cones put around it. 1 & 3 are possible law suits waiting to happen! We did love the serenity of the property. Just a few suggestions before someone gets injured.

Vacation to South Dakota

Beautiful house. Saw Deer just about every day. Our grandson and granddaughter enjoyed climbing the hill back of the house. Good Location if you want to visit Black Hills, Custer State Park, Mt. Rushmore and other sights in the area. Custer is only a couple of miles away and some great places to eat. Plenty of shopping.
