The owner was very easy to communicate with and responded immediately. Pleanty of bedrooms with comfortable beds. It was nice to have plenty of towels for the bathroom and hot tub! Lots of space for groups if you had a larger # of people. We could have walked into Custer for dinner or shopping as it was located very close to town yet seemed more rural. Well supplied with extras throughout. If you are looking in the area i would recommend it. ##### Carol W. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stephanie B.

It was well stocked with everything you could need and had lots of thoughtful touches such as a welcome basket, coozies and treats! My 3 year old grandson loved running around the spacious wrap around deck and running in the yard. He also loved all of the toys provided. There is a beautiful area for a bon fire, but the conditions were too dry to have one. There were 8 of us but room for more if your group is bigger. I highly recommend. ##### Terri Z.

Jun 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy The setting among the Pines and boulders was perfect. Every day we were visited by deer and turkeys. The boys enjoyed the hot tub and outside fire setting. The location was easily accessible to Mt. Rushmore, Hill City 1880 Train, Wind Cave NP and especially Custer SP.Correspondence with the owner was wonderful. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/1b5c0692-bce3-451c-9f93-d1f414f1fbcf-1749406809636.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5e2508c0-6b75-4a44-aa46-8490c9fb2594-1749406843675.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/4c089daa-fc59-4212-ba7b-7f7da0053e71-1749406860779.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Kenneth G.

We had had 6 adults and 4 kids here plus a son and daughter (with dogs) at another property hang out as well. It had everything we needed. Bathrooms were nice, the bedrooms were good. There were a lot of different hang out areas inside and out. We loved the fire pit, hammocks and hot tube. The property was large so we also had yard golf set up. It's only 3 minutes from downtown Custer, but we felt really secluded. We are talking about going back. ##### Dan E.
