Wonderful cabin in Custer!

Great stay in Custer!

This property is unique in respect to having three separate “hang out” areas - basically 3 living rooms with The Best couches! Add in 4 bathrooms and ample bedrooms - it’s a very nice space for a larger group. The kitchen was too small for us, but anytime besides the winter that would be remedied by the outside dining area. The host was especially easy to communicate with! Highly recommend!
