The location of the property was ideal. A Little out of town but close to Custer for dinners out and other activities. The home was in a nice setting. Nice comfortable areas to hang out in the home. We loved the deck out back and spent a lot of time sitting out there.
We loved our stay! The location is great, the wooded acreage for privacy and being right outside Custer State Park, was just what we needed. We had deer in the yard most days. The kids loved the ping pong table, and we hung out in the large kitchen ALOT. We were there for the 4th of July and were able to watch the fireworks from the yard, by the fire! Would definitely stay again!
This place was perfect for our family of five. Plenty of room, amazing and quiet neighborhood with deer grazing in the back yard, and close to just about everything you’d want to see in the Black Hills.
This house and property were ideal for our family. Such a beautiful setting and plenty of room for everyone. It was the perfect place. We plan to book it again next year. So peaceful. Everything was exactly as described.
Very nice property wildlife in the yard every evening and every morning we were on bikes was very easy to get to had a nice garage to keep them in house was clean. Beds were comfortable and close to and close to Mount Rushmore and all the places you want to ride to over there on that side recommend this property to anybody.
We stayed with 8 adults and the house was very comfortable and had everything we couple possibly need. The large kitchen was great. We spent our mornings and evenings on the desk watching all the deer. We were there for an ATV trip and we were able to get everywhere with our wheeler and never had to trailer. Lots of space for parking. We had 4 large trucks with trailers and we still had room. Highly recommend!
We were very impressed with the cleanliness and beauty of the property. The hosts were very responsive to any questions we had. On a wonderful piece of land on a quiet dead end road.
Very nice accommodations. We really appreciated the large fully stocked kitchen and enjoyed dining out on the deck. The ping pong table and rope swing were a bonus hit with our family! Great location in Custer allowing for day trips to all of the Black Hills parks and attractions. We would definitely visit again!
The home was at a great location. There was plenty of room for our family to spread out. The owners of the property were also very helpful with questions about the area. I would highly recommend.

Great House
Huge kitchen. Lot of area for everyone to be. Great deck, great house and awesome location!
House was great for a group of friends to work and explore in the afternoons. Quick to get into town, explore the state parks etc. Lots of wildlife passing through the yard daily.
This spacious house was perfect for my HS and college children to have their own bedrooms and space out when needed; however, they had tons of fun coming together in the family area and playing pool. The location was perfect for our itinerary of Custer State Park, Mt. Rushmore, Sylvan Lake, Needles Hwy and Iron Mtn. Road, Crazy Horse, and Devil's Tower.
Very nice convenient home that met our needs. Plenty of outside parking, quiet neighborhood and close to downtown Custer. New grill on outside covered patio!
This home was perfect for two families of 4. Plenty of room for everyone to spread out but also hangout together. The pool/ping pong table was a huge plus, as were the many board games. The location seemed remote yet was only 3 minutes to downtown Custer. We had a wonderful stay!
The pictures that we looked at prior to booking does not do this place justice. This was a perfect place for us! We came up for the Sturgis Rally and did not want to be in the middle of the rally. The house was immaculate, and everything was just as described. Beautiful, large kitchen, spacious rooms, very comfortable beds. Sitting on the back porch, drinking coffee and watching the wildlife. I highly recommend this house. The owners, Lonnie and Sarah were great to work with, and if we needed anything, they were there.
described
The perfect house for us, comfortable bedrooms, spacious dining areas, and a nice comfortable large living area to relax in at night. Close to everything, we were able to get to all the national parks, monuments, state parks, and historic spots we wanted to see within a few hours drive, AND Custer was adorable - if we visit this area again we would certainly choose this house to enjoy. Thanks for your wonderful hospitality.
We had family from both of our sides meet here as it was a great location in the middle of us both. We had a relaxing weekend of playing games and watching movies together in a perfect location. It’s far enough from town to feel isolated, but only a 5 min drive into town if you need to grab anything from the store or grab some food. I highly recommend this for small family hangouts or a group of friends!
This property is central to all the things a family wants to do. The location is about 25 minutes to most attractions, 45 to Rapid City. The house is amazing and the grounds are beautiful and large. There are plenty games and activities at the house itself. My entire family gives it an A+.
3 couples, including one with a 3-year-old boy, stayed for 1 week. Plenty of room inside to spread out or sit and discuss the day! We did spend most of our time on the covered porch, which accommodated us easily! Beautiful kitchen and home has 2 areas to eat inside if desired. Watched turkeys and deer daily from the porch. City of Custer is reached very easily for forgotten items as well as vacation socialization. Entering Custer State Park is also easily within reach!

About the host
Hosted by Sarah Schryvers
The original home was built in 1987. We built an addition and renovated the entire home in 2011. I have a large family that enjoy coming to the Black Hills. We renovated to accommodate large groups of people. We enjoy 4 wheeling and often leave from our home to access the many trails in the Black Hills Forest Service. I also enjoy cycling and will use the Mickelson trail but will also take my road bike out from the bottom of our subdivision. Hiking is a family past time. There are many trails in Custer State Park and in the Black Hills National Forest. Harney Peak is a short drive and offers a moderately challenging hike with beautiful views at the top as your reward. We golf at Rocky Knolls 9 hole course in Custer. We also golf the Southern Hills Golf Course in Hot Springs, SD. It is a beautiful 18 hole course on nearly 6000 acres.
Why they chose this property
Proximity and Spaciousness! You will feel like you are miles away yet you are very close to all of the things you want to do. I have stayed in VRBO properties and have found many of them to be compact. This property is anything but compact.
What makes this property unique
The covered deck is definitely a plus. It is not unusual to have evening rain storms. You can even enjoy the rain without getting all wet, unless that is what you want to do.
