Beautiful Black Hills property with access to the Mickelson Trail
Enjoy all that the Black Hills has to offer by day and then tuck yourself away in this quite little home at night. Newly remodeled one bed, one bath apartment/duplex on close to two acres. The home sits in a valley on the north side of Custer. Out the back door is a small creek and access to the Mickelson Trail. Across the trail is a lovely view of Forest Service land. If you are lucky you will catch a glimpse of deer and wild turkey that inhabit the area.

Great location right next to the Mickelson trail and about a mile from downtown Custer. All of the basic necessities are at this property and it was the perfect spot to explore the area.

Very quite and a great view from the back porch. Would stay there again.
We had quick access to custer park. We were able to take in the scenery. We were also able to share the other half of the house with friend's. It was a great stay.

Great communication with info given before arrival & then good written instructions in the home. Very peaceful space & area around. Cozy inside. Highly recommend.
Great place to stay! Very comfortable and clean rustic little cabin with a great view in the back yard. Awesome location so close to Custer and neighborhood felt very safe. Bed was super comfy. Will be staying here again in the future:)
Really enjoyed my stay here. The owner has taken the reviews and updated the site. Fans and heaters were added to the site. I felt like the location was amazing, the cabin was right, and the accommodation was above par. Thank you for a great experience.
We appreciated that we could walk across the back yard and access the Mickleson Trail. In the evening we sat in the backyard and watched turkeys and deer feed on the corn provided. The cabin was simple, quaint, clean just like the description. If you like extravagant accommodations, probably not for you- but we definitely enjoyed it!!
We enjoyed our stay. It was a perfect place for just the 2 of us. One more person would have been crowded. You do share laundry room with the room next to you. Thats what separates you from them in the house. The kitchen was
well furnished.
well furnished. The only
Such a cozy little place away from home. Beautiful backyard view every morning while having your coffee. Quiet setting. And got to see and feed deer on the property. Comfortable bed and pillows. And to top it off, the property manager was so wonderful to communicate with. Loved staying here!
It was just what we needed. A quiet getaway from tv, internet and phone.

I loved the quiet, safe area. The kitchen was great, allowing us to prepare most of our meals. The bed was very comfortable. We walked on the nearby trail which was nice. The dining table chairs need to be upgraded and it would have been nice to have cable TV, but this is certainly not a big deal.
We enjoyed our stay. Beautiful scenery right out the back door. Fun having the Mickelson trail right out back. We enjoyed seeing the deer. The bed was very comfortable. The only thing is no air conditioning, which was really only needed one of our days. House is rustic, but comfortable.
As advertised in the listing. Clean, quiet, close to town. Rustic decor. Bed is very soft…not bad, I just prefer a firm mattress. I would stay again.

Only one bed
This unit has only one bed! It advertises a couch that makes up into a bed, but that is not true. The living room couch is just a couch, not a bed!. Also the living room floor is very sticky around the fireplace. There is no protection on the floor, some sparks or ashes have melted some spots in the vinyl floor. I will not return!

Cozy Spot Right Off the Trail
My friend and I met Dan right away and he was very nice. The apartment has a lot of potential. It's a cozy spot for any vacationers. There is another review that lists a few drawbacks that we agree with, especially the bathroom door that is too long to glide smoothly on the rail, but it was a nice place to lay our head for our stay. There was some disappointment that there was a TV but no programming. Vacation is nice to get away and unplug, but my friend is not a reader and I felt like I had to entertain her as we had nothing to do otherwise in our down time. The windows didn't have coverings/curtains, which bothered my security-minded friend, who slept on the futon. I have various food allergies, so cooked in the kitchen and it was nicely equipped with the essentials. However, there were some towels left behind that in these times I didn't care for. The view out the backdoor was beautiful and overall the spot was peaceful. Dan strikes me as a man who will be prompt in meeting any needs to make your stay comfortable and takes pride in his property.
Excellent holiday! The property was as pictured. Clean and well stocked. Back porch view with the mountains, deer and turkeys was simply breathtaking.
The hosts, Jeanne and Dan, were beyond accommodating. Great people.
This property suited our needs perfectly. More than willing to book again!
