Perfect for Family and Friend Group

Nine of us stayed here for our family and friend out west trip. Plenty of room for our 3 vehicles and 2 Harleys. Bikes were kept in garage. Layout upstairs was perfect conversation area for whole group. Deck was great too. We could even see Custer’s 4th of July fireworks display from the deck. A communication from host Lori.

Custer is wonderful!

This property was perfect for our family vacation to the Black Hills. We had very minor problems that we were able to take care of ourselves, so we had no need to communicate with the owner. The house is so close to major attractions, and the house provided a pass for Custer State Park. The Purple Pie House was too close— we visited often!

Great Stay!

This house was a great home base for us as we explored the area around Custer. It was close to everything and had plenty of room for us to make it our home away from home. The owner was very responsive and made our stay enjoyable.

Our family enjoyed our stay at this property with all its amenities. The owner has the home stocked and supplied just like a home away from home It was so convenient to Custer State Park, Mt. Rushmore and Crazy Horse Memorial. Even though it is located in the town of Custer we saw deer in the yard multiple days. I would not hesitate to recommend this property to family and friends who are visiting the area.
