One Level Log Home on 3.5 Acres, Beautiful Views, Newly Updated

Description:

Beautiful three bedroom, two bath, log home with new modern amenities. An open floor plan that allows family and friends to inclusively prepare meals while enjoying wonderful views of the natural beauty from every window and the crackling of the fireplace and/or while watching the 65” television with free Wi-Fi internet access. Two king size beds and one queen over queen bunk bed.

For those looking for alone time, there is an open air three season reading room ideal for phone calls, work or simply reading a book in an oversized leather chair with a cup of hot coffee or a chilled adult beverage.

The kitchen has pots, pans, plates, utensils, etc. to create memorable vacation meals and offers a healthy economical alternative to eating meals at local restaurants. Also, unlike many of the rural homes in the Black Hills area, there is excellent well water available from the tap. In fact, most folks choose to bottle our fresh ice cold tap water for their day trips.

COVID-19:

Please follow the current recommended PPE protocols during the time of travel.

Weather Considerations and Access:

The weather in South Dakota, although unpredictable, is beautiful. The air is fresh with moderate temperatures during the summer months. Occasional afternoon showers will not be an access concern, unlike many rentals in the Black Hills having miles of dirt roads, because the house has a paved driveway. No cause for concern with the summer hail as the house has an overly large attached two car garage available for parking your personal car, motorcycle and/or the rental car.

Wildlife:

Almost daily, deer frequent the yard in the evenings, bluebirds abound and squirrels playfully chatter from the trees.

Additional Amenities:

We have fishing poles available for kids to enjoy the free fishing, for those 12 years of age or younger, in the many nearby lakes, without parents having to invest in this gear for a one time vacation outing. Lawn chairs and coolers are also made available. For those with toddlers or babies, we provide a Pack-n-Play and a booster seat for the car.

Local Access:

The house is less than 1 mile from the community golf course, 3 miles from downtown Custer, 3 miles from a new 76 bed community hospital, 6 miles from the Custer State Park entrance, 9 miles from Crazy Horse Memorial, 20 miles from Mt. Rushmore and 72 miles of beautiful Black Hills riding to Sturgis. In fact, the best riding in the Black Hills is in the Custer area through the Needles Highway.

Great Custer SD home
What a wonderful updated cabin. Very comfortable, with everything you could want. With a 3 1/2 acre yard, it is very private, yet a little over a mile from town. I’m very impressed. I definitely will utilize this home again.

Great House, Top Notch Location
We had a great time in Custer, attending the Buffalo Round Up and visiting nearby sites. The house is in a great location for all Black Hills festivities. Our host kindly allowed early check in as we had been camping nearby. We had 7 adults and one baby, and the house had plenty of room for all. While the house was clean, there was a fly problem, which probably seemed more predominant because we had a baby. We had to continue to clean these throughout our 3 day stay.

Rest and Relax after Exploring
We stayed in this wonderful home for a few nights while exploring Custer State Park. What a blessing to come "home" to this comfy, clean, beautiful house after busy days outdoors! I highly recommend this home. Easy check in/check out process. Plus, the three season room was perfect to take break and read a book!

We loved our stay here. As other reviews stated it had ton of extras in the house but we were still shocked how stocked the house was including games and kitchen supplies. Our dog loved the house and the nice dog beds. We will make sure to rent this place again on our next stay.

This VRBO has it all!
Our stay was amazing; not only was the property beautiful, but also very clean and upkept. The owners thought of everything from laundry detergent to shampoo to condiments. Being so close to town was a great advantage as we were able to cook breakfast and dinner at the house after a long day of activities. Everyone slept great as the beds were extremely comfortable. Best of all we are heading back after a week of vacation with no laundry as the house had a washer and dryer. Our kids enjoyed playing in the backyard and we enjoyed peaceful mornings on the 3 season porch sipping coffee. If we could come back every year we would!

Fun in Custer
Overall, this house fit us perfectly, offering many of the same comforts of home. It was a great place to stay, and we truly enjoyed our time here. The space was clean, well-maintained, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. However, I must mention one concern. During our visit, the temperature was close to 90 degrees, and while the living area had air conditioning, the bedrooms did not. This made the nights were slightly uncomfortable. Despite this, the rest of the experience was fantastic, and I'm still giving it 5 stars because everything else was excellent.

Family Trip in Custer
We stayed at this cabin for four nights with five people. Our group was two children, 9 & 13, two parents and one grandparent. Location of property: Fantastic proximity to all the fun activities and sights in the area. Cabin is in a nice residential area about a 1/4 mile off a main highway. Neighbors are 75-150 yds away so we had plenty of privacy, but didn't feel totally isolated. Outside area: Two decks on either side of the house gave opportunities for outdoor dining. We did use the grill which was nice. Plenty of buffalo grass, and a fun swing for kids to run around and play. Inside: Kitchen, dining, living room are all open (as in the pictures). Lots of natural light, the table accommodates 6 people easily. EVERYTHING you could ask for is stocked in the kitchen. Three bedrooms occupy the other side of the house. They are all on the same hall and share walls with each other. The bedrooms are large, have nice closet space, comfortable beds and nice hotel quality linens. There are two full bathrooms (the listing isn't quite clear). One has a bathtub the other is just a shower surround. We thought the bathtub and shower could use a refresh--but everything was very clean and functional, so this criticism is picky. The host has provided everything you will need--towels, blankets, a stockpile of family games, simple toiletries are in abundance. We really enjoyed this property and would definitely recommend it!

Good times at a great place
This log home was the perfect place for us to stay. Rooms beds and the kitchen were just what we needed. Well stocked (three different ways to make coffee). Never turned on the large TV ( that pulls down to a better viewing level ) above the fire place. Great location! Arlene is easy to communicate with. I’d recommend it to anyone. Bart & Rebecca Stone

One of the best
This was are fist Vrbo and the host knocked it out of the park with the little extras that were provided for condiments. This experience may take us to rent Vrbo instead of hotels going forward. The wildlife and scenery around the cabin was beautiful. The host answered all questions quickly. If ever in the black hills area check out this place.

This is an amazing home and property. The house sits on an incredible lot so there’s lots of room and great views.

We are group of 8 ( 6 of us out of Europe). We are very happy we had an opportunity to stay in this house. It gave us a chance to meet Nancy and get in touch with the owner, very pleasant and attentive individuals. The house by itself help us to relax and radiated good energy. This was such a great stay. Property is clean, kitchen very well stuffed, neighborhood very safe, view from the porch is amazing. We will be back if possible. We are highly recommending this cabin.
