About the host

Hosted by Stan & Shirley Burgers

Host profile image
We have always enjoyed vacationing in the Black Hills with our children over the years. As we near retirement we chose to build this home in the Custer area to be closer to our children and grandchildren who now live in Colorado.

Why they chose this property

We spent about 5 years searching for just the right place to build this home and hope you will enjoy it as much as we do. It is close enough to Custer, Hill City & even Rapid City for all of our needs, and yet secluded enough to provide the peace and quiet that we long for as we near retirement.

What makes this property unique

We do hope that you will enjoy your stay at our "piece of heaven" enough to return from time to time and to share what you liked about your stay with your friends and family.
