About this property
Beautiful Black Hills Home just minutes from so many attractions.
This is a home we built in 2007 that we have enjoyed and taken care of on every level. It is completely furnished with nothing but comfort in mind. 2 leather couches, 2 recliner chairs, along with very comfortable bedding, 55" big screen smart tv in living area set up with local cable & streaming services. Master bedroom is set up with a smaller smart tv with local cable and streaming services also. Feel free to bring your fire stick, gaming devices etc. from home to watch your favorite television shows or play games. Extremely nice decorations to give you the feel of cozy and comfort in every room. All you need to bring is your food. We supply you with a single stall in our 2 car garage to assure you have a place to park inside if a summer storm would happen to come through, or to put your car in for a cold winter night if you are staying in the cold months. In floor heat is like no heat you have ever experienced as the heat comes up from the floor instead of from vents blowing air. The AC is a wall unit located in the main living area. It rarely gets hot enough in the hills that you cannot stay very cool and comfortable with this cooling unit. We do have a large standing fan in the master bedroom if more air is need to be moved in that room if it ever gets to warm. Cozy covered porch complete with patio furniture, washer and dryer along with all the things you will need in the kitchen to prepare a large meal or the smallest snack. We have high speed internet, local cable and smart tv's with live streaming services. however we do not provide a computer, so you will need to bring your own device to work with. The master bedroom is complete with California king size bed ( new mattress fall 2025 ) with very cozy bedding, a master bath and shower along with a desk to work from if you need to do any work from home. 1 large ceiling fan. It also has a large walk in closet. Full view windows to watch wildlife right outside the home in the back yard if you decide to leave the blinds open. We supply 2 twin bunk style mattress's that can be put on the floor in the living room or master bed room for the extra kids or adults to use. You will find them and blankets in the master bed room closet. The second bedroom is very spacious also, with a huge closet, very comfortable queen size sleigh bed with super cozy bedding and ceiling fan. The location is perfect for someone wanting to see all the sites as it is just a short distance to all the hotspots in the Blackhills region. We work very hard to keep everything in great shape by either replacing needed items with new or taking care of things as needed in this home to assure you the best stay with no problems. It is only minutes from Crazy Horse Mountain and also Mount Rushmore. Endless hiking including Black Elk Peak, the highest point in the Black Hills. Multiple lakes less than 3-5 miles away that are excellent for fishing and all types of water sports. Eagle viewing along with many other types of bird watching is unmatched in this location. We have even seen an occasional mountain lion in the area. The deer population is unbelievable. They will come right up to the house and even lay in the backyard, just outside the walls of the home. This is a very quite neighborhood that is mainly retired individuals that have moved there from all over the country to enjoy the splendor and serenity of the Black Hills, and with that I can assure you, no disappointments from the peaceful sunrises to the crystal clear star lit skies as night falls across the mountain range all around your viewing area from the front or back porch area of this home. So many have said, there is just nothing like sitting on that back covered porch on those early pristine mornings with a light jacket, deer less than 30 feet away, birds of all kinds awakening with sunrise and the best cup of hot coffee your hands can hold in its warm mug just taking in what mother nature has provided in all its glory. The fact is, we have spent time in Colorado and many other locations around the US and it is no secret that viewing birds and animals in their natural habitat cannot be matched to what you will find in the Black Hills region of South Dakota. What we and many others like about the Black Hills, is the fact it is so open to hiking and just plain getting out of your car and looking around. Let me tell you it is hard to find a no parking sign in this area. It seems many locations you go to, it is impossible to get out and explore the area, not in The Black Hills. This home like our cabin in the country we have on VRBO just outside of Grand Island Nebraska # 4793561 has been set up with the comforts and convenience that are unmatched in most rentals. Enjoy your stay and make sure to let us know if there is anyway we can help you make it the best vacation you ever had. Kevin Houtwed

About the host
Hosted by Kevin Houtwed / Karen Houtwed
We are a family from Nebraska that built this home in 2007 in Custer because we love the Black Hills and wanted to spend more time there. My wife has taught for 30 plus years as a Resource Teacher in the local high school and I have a company called Hotwoods that we manufacture pontoon boats and docks along with many other related items. We have 2 beautiful Daughters, One Son in law and 2 wonderful Grand children, A very special foreign exchange student, we call our Son, and our dog Mia. and we are very involved with our work and family, but always find time to enjoy the Beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota.
Why they chose this property
This property has everything you need to enjoy your stay in the Black Hills. We completely furnished it with the best things we could find. This makes it very comfortable while staying here. Leather couches, Big screen cable tv, Very comfortable bedding along with all the things to make a kitchen a kitchen. Keep in mind we set this up for our family and now we are offering it to you to enjoy. The location is very close to everything you will want to do while in the Black Hills. It is located 51 miles from Sturgis, SD. The mountain countryside style neighborhood is not only very safe, it is very quiet for those porch setting days and evenings. In minutes you can be at Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse or any location in the Custer state park. It also has many excellent fishing lakes very close. Hiking and biking trails less than 200 yards from the front door. Deer and turkeys along with fox will be seen regularly all around the property as well as many different species of birds. Shopping does not get any better than Rapid City located 45 miles away via the most scenic drive in the mountains, along with attractions like Bear Mountain and Reptile Gardens. These are places where you can really get up close and personal with wild bear, elk, wolf, and every type of reptile known to man. Then there is the Badlands of South Dakota. Located about 90 miles to the east of our home, you will not believe what you will see there, as it looks just like the moon surface. This is a great area to hike and see wildlife like mountain goats, along with many large birds or prey. Right down the road a few miles from the Badlands is Wall, SD, where you will find Wall Drug, that has been a vacation hot spot for visitors for over 100 years.
