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.

The property was very comfortable. The steps were a problem for my wife because they are steep and she has an artificial knee.

Convenient location, helpful owners
We had a nice stay and it was quiet and convenient to downtown Custer. We had a couple of questions while on-site and the hosts were very responsive. They addressed any concerns we had quickly and in a professional manner.
