Comfortable & Homey

My family and I enjoyed our stay at Laramie Bluffs. A nice location off the beaten path and away from the busy town of Custer. The owners were very nice and accommodating. The space was cozy (as expected). The air conditioner had to work really hard, and the cool air didn't circulate well even with 2 ceiling fans so cooking with the stove/oven wasn't a great idea.

The perfect spot for our fall getaway!!

We had a wonderful and relaxing time at this property. It was our second visit here as we had stayed here several years ago. We had lots of space for the two of us, comfortable beds and a kitchen to bring or make meals at the rental unit. It was also so close to all of the attractions we wanted to visit. The Laramie Bluffs Mountain Getaway was perfect for our fall “leaf peeping” getaway! Thank you Gary & Linda Fellows!!
