Wonderful area

The cabin was warm, very clean and inviting. The kitchen was very well stocked. We appreciated the baked goodies waiting for us upon arrival! Cheryl suggested the annual Buffalo Run which was spectacular! The area is beautiful! Custer is a quaint town, a short drive away, and supplied all our needs. It was a once in a lifetime trip for me and my husband.

Best host ever and location location location

The property was beautiful, up on a hill nestled in ponderosa pines, very private with decks off the front and side. We walked in the kitchen to find delicious banana bread and chocolate chip cookies waiting for us. We slept great every night. The location is just minutes from Custer State Park and Jewel Cave. We highly recommend this, you won’t be disappointed

Cozy Cabin Close to Custer!

This cute little cabin is only two minutes from downtown Custer. The property is private, the bed was comfortable, and the outdoor deck and fire pit were great places to relax after a day exploring all the attractions. The baked goods that were on the kitchen table were a pleasant surprise!

Exactly what we needed.

Cabin was clean and exactly as described. Perfect location for visiting the Black Hills Playhouse. The bed was a little hard but we had no problem sleeping. The owner was quick to respond with any questions I had before our visit.

Cozy Custer Cabin

Perfect spot to explore Custer, Crazy Horse, Mt. Rushmore, and Mammoth Site, plus Custer State Park as we left. Clean, comfortable, well-stocked cabin with treats in the kitchen when we arrived! We enjoyed our 53rd anniversary in this excellent location!!

Almost Heaven

The cabin itself is wonderful! Everything you need to thoroughly enjoy your stay in one of the most beautiful, and natural, places imaginable. Not fancy, just "down home" perfect!! Add to that, Mt. Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Custer State Park and a very relaxed downtown area and we honestly did not want to leave. Thank you, Cheryl!

Our stay

I marked 5 stars for communication with the property manager, but we actually never had any face to face contact with them. Only communication was online via VRBO. We were quite pleased with the cabin, the only thing we didn't care for was the noise from the highway that was close to us. I do believe the king bed had a memory foam mattress but I just didn't sleep well on it. Absolutely loved that it was a king bed!!!! We have king beds in every bedroom in our home and wouldn't have anything less. Beautiful kitchen area and stocked with all the essentials. Especially liked the ice trays were filled and frozen and ready for use upon our arrival to unwind with a little cocktail. We had nice outdoor seating and really for the most part we had a lot of privacy. The other 2 cabins/homes beside the property we stayed in, the people were very friendly. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay, a very nice getaway for our 45th wedding anniversary.

Sister trip

My sister and I plan a trip every year. Usually we camp, this was our first VRBO. The cabin was as described, there was road noise if you were in the front yard but inside was quiet and comfortable. The fire pit was utilized every night...best place to get firewood was just inside custer at gas station. Dry, bagged up, and uber affordable. King size bed comfortable, could have window open and no road noise. Tv set up for you to log onto your personal Netflix or prime account. Kitchen was moderately stocked. We cooked all our meals at cabin. Grill on deck is very convenient. Setting peaceful with easy access to whatever you may want. Michelsson trail was a beautiful leisurely walk with abundant wildlife. We started each day with a 3 to 4 mile walk. Put things in perspective and allowed for a re-boot.Homemade treats left by owner were delicious and a thoughtful touch. Would not hesitate to stay there again.

Great stay during Sturgis week!

Very quiet, set back off the road. This cabin had everything you may need. Kitchen was stocked well although we didn’t use much. (Except for the yummy homemade treats left by the hosts). The bed was very comfortable. Hosts had many good suggestions for restaurants and sites to see. We were gone all day every day but really enjoyed relaxing in the cabin at night.
