The perfect place for a Black Hills adventure!
This was perfect for our family of four. They have pretty much anything you could need to feel completely at home. We so enjoyed coming back to our mountain home after enjoying all of our vacation activities. The hosts are also very attentive, especially if you have any questions.

Wonderful Location!
Great central location. Stayed for 3rd Annual Mickelson Trail Trek. Very clean. Hosts were very accommodating. One suggestion: might consider putting some WD40 on bedroom door hinges for early risers. Wonderful stay.

Sleeps 6 not 8
The place is very clean and we enjoyed our stay. The only problem is that it is listed for 8 people and there is only space for 6!! Very disappointing. One of our group had to sleep in the floor.

Home was perfectly situated to visit Custer state Park, Crazy Horse Monument, and both Jewel & Wind Cave. The kitchen was well stocked and the place was roomy and quiet. It could use a coffee table and some bedside lamps, but otherwise it was perfect.

Best place to stay in Custer!
This is the perfect location to easily get to all the fun attractions around Custer as well as being able to enjoy what the town of Custer has to offer. The house is close enough to the main street downtown that you can walk to restaurants and bars, but far enough away to be super quiet at night. The house itself is very well maintained and they have literally everything you need to enjoy your stay.
