About this property
Custer Area Retreat on 40 Acres: Hot Tub, Fire Pit, Trails & Views
Escape to the heart of the Black Hills in this 3,000 sq ft custom home on 40 private acres, surrounded by Forest Service land with French Creek winding through the valley below. Take in spectacular views from the full-length covered front porch or unwind on the huge side deck—perfect for morning coffee, sunset drinks, and unforgettable stargazing.
Inside, you’ll feel right at home with beautifully finished, oversized bathrooms, a fully stocked kitchen with everything you need, and a stunning stone fireplace that makes the living space warm, inviting, and perfect for gathering after a day outdoors. The chef’s kitchen is spacious and fully appointed, featuring a gas range, double ovens, and a warming drawer—ideal for family meals and holiday-style dinners.
Adventure starts at your doorstep with endless trail access directly from the property—perfect for ATVs, horseback riding, hiking, mountain biking, and climbing. When you’re ready to explore, you’re just minutes from downtown Custer, Custer State Park, Crazy Horse, Mount Rushmore, plus great restaurants and local favorites.
And when the day winds down, relax outdoors around the fire pit or slip into the brand-new hot tub. Soak under the stunning Black Hills night sky after a day of adventure—or start your morning with a cup of coffee in the steam, surrounded by quiet pines and big-sky views.
