The neighborhood is quiet and safe. The fenced yard was perfect for our dogs. Beds were very comfy and house is stocked with all of the essentials. ##### Kristal R.

The pass for the park we got with the rental was a nice touch. The fenced in yard was nice for our dogs. ##### Michele B. Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Megan H. Oct 24, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect Location for our Fall Break Stay! We loved the town of Custer and this charming house was right in the heart of it. We were able to walk to restaurants and shops. The location was also a perfect jumping off point for seeing the sites in the Black Hills. We went far and wide and decided our favorite excursion was a day in Custer State Park, where we saw Bison and Prairie Dogs and a host of other wildlife. It was awesome to come home each day to the peaceful little cottage where we ended the evening with a movie and then to bed. The matresses were heaven! ##### Megan H. Stayed 5 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Noah B. Jun 28, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Cozy, comfortable and convenient. This property was perfect for our 3 night stay in Custer. My daughter had her own room which she enjoyed. I really liked the fact that I could sip my coffee while sitting on the porch in the morning. My wife really liked the bed which was far more comfortable than the hotel beds we slept on the few nights before. Just about everything in Custer is within walking distance of the cottage. It was perfect. ##### Noah B. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### MARY W.

Oct 4, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect for our purposes The location was perfect, close enough to walk to every where in town if others wanted to drive to a further destination. It was a quiet neighborhood and the home was clean and comfortable. Everyone agreed the beds were heaven! The only thing I would add is a small dresser in each bedroom and more towel bars or hooks in the bathroom. We would stay there again. ##### Corrine L.
