Great place to stay in Custer!
This was our second stay at this cabin in Custer. Nicole is an excellent host, great communication and has thought of every little detail throughout the cabin! The cabin is spacious and provides everyone room to spread out after a long day of checking out the sights in the Black Hills.

Cozy Cabin
This property was the perfect place to stay while we explored the Black Hills area! It had everything we needed, communication was easy, and the location was convenient. We enjoyed the large yard and the access to the trail. After full days of hiking and sight seeing, it was nice to come back and relax in the coziness of the cabin!

Perfect spot
Our family came to do all the tourist things in South Dakota and this place was perfect. She stayed in contact with us. There was plenty of room and anything else you might need. So cute inside. If we go back that way ever we will check this spot out first. Two thumbs up!
The cabin was clean, well stocked, and in a location close to all of the area attractions. We had a great stay.

Beautiful home and comfy beds
My family and my sister’s family came to Custer for buffalo round up. We had great communication with the hostess. She was very thorough and accommodating. The home is better than it looks in the pictures.. the beds were very comfortable. Very spacious and everything you need at a VRBO’s house was very clean and organized . It was above our expectations and met our needs. We would definitely stay here again.

Very nice place. Enjoyed having all the comforts of home. The layout was very thoughtful and efficient. Close enough to the area attractions to be easy drive but far enough out to not be in the hustle and bustle of the town. Suited our families needs wonderfully. Loved this place!

Moms and sons adventure
We traveled from out of state and had a wonderful time. Cabin was very clean and spacious and situated in beautiful property. We had a great trip for moms and young boys out on their first trip to the Black Hills area. It should be noted cell service can be very limited, so you may have to travel to town to make calls or text. This has nothing to do with the cabin itself or its host.

We liked where it was located, close enough to Custer but not near a lot of people. Wifi was great since we had no cell service! We used the grill two of our nights there and loved having AC.
