TRAVEL BACK IN TIME AND BREATHE IN THE INDIAN and WESTERN AMBIANCE of this home on 5 private wooded acres which sits one mile outside the town of Custer, nestled among trees and rock formations of onetime national forest. The 1100 sq ft cedar house has ceramic tile floors throughout, leather furniture, new kitchen appliances and LOTS of windows.
The main house sleeps 3 with an attached "western room" that sleeps 2 (summer only). The guest house sleeps 4
The master bedroom is furnished in aspen log with a queen bed and master bath. A private room off the kitchen can sleep 1 in a twin bed. It has its own bathroom and entrance plus shares a porch with the "western room" which has a full size bed with beautiful rock and cedar walls (western room is for warm weather months)
The guest house included with the rental, is setup like a studio apartment (minus a kitchen) but with a bathroom/shower. The main room has a queen size bed, table & chairs, plus a easy chair, tv/satellite and a picture window which frames the wonderful view of a pond and rock formations. The second room has a full size bed a separate entrance and all the character of a cabin setting.
Enjoy your time on one of 4 covered porches. Our favorite is the largest which is partially enclosed and has comfy wicker furniture. It's a favorite spot for morning coffee, watching rain and thunderstorms or sipping cocktails in the evening. . From any porch you can enjoy the view, peacefulness and wildlife. Relax with a family bbq or play a game of horseshoes in the meadow.
Custer is in an area known as the "heart" of the hills and local attractions include Mount Rushmore, Custer State Park, Jewel and Wind Caves, the scenic Needles Highway. It is also 6 miles from Crazy Horse Mountain, several lakes and approximately 45 miles from historic Deadwood and the Rapid City airport. This area also attracts motorcyclists especially during the Sturgis motorcycle rally. We also welcome hunters for deer, elk and turkey season. In the fall Custer State Park hosts the famous Buffalo Roundup and Arts Festival.

Map & Owner's Profile
Cabin W/Guest House on 5 Acres Great for in-Laws or 2 Families
Year Purchased: 2005
Why the Owner Chose Custer
I fell in love with the Black Hills after several trips to the Sturgis motorcycle rallies. The hills and rock formation are beautiful, peaceful and scenic with lots of history. I love the slow pace .
The Unique Benefits at this Cabin
Most people can't decide if they should stay and hang out at the cabin or if they should go sight seeing or tour other area attractions. It is so relaxing you won't want to leave!!

This was the first time we have used VRBO or rented anyones cabin. Mary was great to work with and after talking to her I felt it was the right thing to do. There were 4 adults and 4 children in our party. The cabin is wonderful, very quiet and secluded, but is only 5 minutes from town. Everything was very clean and inviting when we arrived. We were very tired after our 10 hour drive so we didn't find the secret bedroom off the laundry room porch until the next day, so one of the kids slept on the couch the first night. The kids loved exploring around the cabin. There were deer every morning and evening and a great view of the pond. The kitchen is great with all top-notch appliances but no microwave. The internet hookup was great to have. We spent alot of time at Custer State Park and it is only a short drive down the road. It's pretty central to most attractions. My only regret is that we couldn't stay longer.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, tourists without a car, girls getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

Our family of 5 (77,76,43,43,14) thoroughly enjoyed this beautiful cabin. Third week of June, weather was wonderful; warm days, cool nights and a couple of thunderstorms in the evening. Wildlife abound in this quiet location. Great location for sightseeing. Not to far from Rushmore, Crazyhorse, Deadwood, Custer Park and the Badlands. Owner was very helpful and the place was very clean. This was our first time dealing with VRBO so we weren't sure but we won't hestitate to use again. Would highly recommend this property to anyone, from couples looking for some quiet time to groups of 8 or so. Only problem with area is no Sprint cell service but that is the area not the property.
Recommended for:Romantic getaway, sightseeing, adventure seekers, girls getaway, age 55+, families with young children, families with teenagers.

Super clean and comfortable cabin with all the comforts of home. Having two cabins offers plenty of privacy which would be perfect when traveling with two families. The location was great. Close to all the area attractions. Thanks for making your place available. We would highly recommend it to anyone looking to stay in that area.

Thanks for a great house. Everyone settled in for a great stay. The back porch was our favorite spot. Day and night. The kitchen suited our needs. Having a radio was a plus. The car port spared the bikes from a couple of downpours. The location of the house was right in the center of the Park system, and the scenic drives were great. We would happily give a recomendation to any future rental requests that you might have. Thanks, Polly Balland

Thank you for letting us stay at your wonderful cabin in Custer. The forest was like my grandson would say "awesome" the lake in the evening was peaceful and serine. We did not want to leave during the day to see all that we tried to see in four days because we felt so comfortable there. We tried to keep the cabin as nice as we found it. Once again a great big Thank you for letting us use your cabin and we will be sure to let our friends and family know about your cabin if we hear of anyone's plans to go to South Dakota. Lydia and Jesus Rodriguez
