We had a lovely time at the Cabin on the Rocks ! It was a clean , well kept property that was a very peaceful, quiet and relaxing place to stay. The views were amazing and saw quite a bit of wildlife while sitting on the spacious porch. The cabin was well equipped for all of our needs and we will definitely come back again . The host was very helpful and answered any questions promptly. Thank you for a great stay !! The location was great for all of the parks we wanted to visit as well.

Black Hills base camp

The property was off the beaten trail, but very convenient to Custer State Park, Wind Cave NP, and the towns nearby. There was plenty of room for 5 adults, we made full use of the kitchen and laundry facilities, and overall enjoyed having a nice place to stay between adventures. Would stay here again if it fit our travel plans.

Great location for hunting. Close to Custer and day trips to Keystone and Hill City. Located in a quiet country neighborhood. The cabin itself was very clean and everything was in working order and up to date. Can see wildlife while sitting on the deck. Thumbs up!

This is a beautiful- out of the way but still close to so much place! Had everything we needed and didn't want to leave! Wildlife all around and so peaceful! Had a small bonfire one evening fixing hotdogs and s'mores with the wood they left us and roasting sticks available! Had several family game nights too - choosing our favorites from the nice assortment of games they provided! (Check in the cabinet above the fridge ) along with a basket in the living room :) An awesome grill available to cook your favorites too! So much available with this house and we truly enjoyed every day we were there! We went sightseeing every day and it was nice to come back to such a great place! Thank you! Pics attached are from the peaceful porch we enjoyed every morning and evening!

Custer stay

We overall had a really great stay. There were games available to play, views (especially at night) were amazing. Only complaint would be that there was a hole in the wall by the shower head that had visible mold around it. Also would have been nice to have a couple supplies like paper towels available. Overall nice space and enjoyed our time there.

All in all, a great experience.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Great privacy. During our 3-day stay we saw or heard only 3 vehicles. A cautious doe and her very young twin fawns passed by on two occasions about 50 feet from the cabin. Located halfway between Custer and Hot Springs made it very easy to see attractions in the area. We wouldn’t hesitate to come back.

Cabin on the rocks was the perfect home away from home for our family! We were very comfortable in the living spaces and the beds. It was really nice to have laundry available and a full kitchen to make and prep meals each day!
