Oh what a beautiful place, a large property. The best stocked kitchen for cooking in any rental I have ever stayed in. About 15 minute drive into Custer and so private. Marmots, deer, wild turkeys and beautiful birds on the property. Lotsa green space to play and explore.

This place was amazing! Off the beaten path without being in too far away. The cabin was almost our favorite part of our Black Hills trip. The kitchen was well stocked, and the WiFi handled everything we needed it for. Jeff was super communicative and helpful and anticipated anything we could have needed. We will definitely be coming back to stay again.

Amazing location

Everything about this cabin was just as we expected. Maybe better! A bit out of town but close enough to not be inconvenient. The cabin has everything you could ever need. Was clean and very well maintained. We would stay there again for sure!

We would love to host you again next year. I will be opening up dates for 2024 in a few weeks. Since you have become a "regular" I will keep your week blocked until you are ready to book it. Just give me a range of dates and I will keep them blocked until you get back to me when you are ready, then I will open those dates to be rented. (I think this is what we did last year)

Great place to hop on trails

We stayed here since it was close to trails to ride our side by sides. The place was secluded from others, and we had lots of room to play games and hang out. The house had everything we needed for our group of 9. Would stay here again!

Dan - As I said, we will keep the end of November dates blacked for you if you want them. Should you decide you aren't coming back in 2023 just let me know and we will release them for others who might want them. You won't be able to actually book the cabin on VRBO until I release the block. I will do that as soon as I hear whether you want them or not. No rush at this time, but sometime in the spring it would be nice to know. Have a good winter, Jeff

Black Hills Gold

Perfect log cabin in a beautiful, serene setting. We had 6 adults in our group and had room to spare. Everything we needed was in the cabin ready to go. From campfire wood and kindling to the fully stocked kitchen, there was not one detail missed. Lots of wildlife, wide open sky for star gazing, close to all the area attractions. I can't say enough good things about this special little place.

Beautiful log home in picturesque setting in the heart of the Black Hills. A short drive to many attractions and restaurants. Or enjoy hiking, star gazing or reading a good book at the cabin. Many amenities. Owner is nearby and attentive to any needs. We would definitely come again!

This cabin was incredible! We stayed with another couple and their 2 kids and had plenty of room. The cabin had everything we could ever need. The views are beautiful and they are close to most attractions. I would highly recommend it. Jeff was the best as well. Book it!

Beautiful Setting!!

Jeff and family were such wonderful hosts! The cabin was more than what we thought, more than enough room for 7, gorgeous views from the porch, every amenity you can think of, French Creek right by the cabin, activities for the kids.... it was great! Can't wait to come back again! Jeff has been a great communicator thru the whole process and it made our stay even better! Cheers from Colorado!!
