About this property

The Miner's Cabin

Welcome to the Miner's Cabin at Backroads Inn and Cabins. This one-room cabin sits apart from the others tucked in the midst of pine trees. Inside offers a king bed in the main room and a twin-sized bed in the front sun nook. With a small kitchen, gas grill, and private fire pit, there is everything you'll need on this 8 acre property surrounded by National Forest. You will feel complete peace while also being minutes away from all the attractions - Mt Rushmore (2.4 miles) and Custer State Park (15 mins.)
