About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

4 BR, 2 BA-With Only Deer for Neighbors, Short Walk to Downtown Custer

Tucked into the granite outcroppings in the edge of Custer is a secluded log home on a private acreage. It is surrounded by pines and granite outcroppings with no neighbors (except wildlife) insight. You’ll have complete privacy, yet is within walking distance to downtown Custer with ice cream, restaurants, and music venues.

The home is a 100-year old rustic log cabin that has a large modern addition opening out to wrap around decks that where you can watch the wildlife and enjoy the view. The updated family room had vaulted ceilings and a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. The kitchen is newly upgraded and well equipped for family-style cooking. The den has a large TV and foosball table to keep everyone entertained after a day of sightseeing and hiking.

Custer is the perfect, central location for your Black Hills getaway:

Mt Rushmore-20 miles
Crazy Horse-7 miles
Custer State Park-14 miles
Wind Cave National Park-18 miles
Jewel Cave National Monument-13 miles
Sheridan Lake-20 miles
Sylvan Lake-7 miles

Great location
The house was very spacious, especially the deck!! We loved that it was so close to town but just up the hill far enough that it felt secluded. We had a great time visiting Custer state park, the Badlands, the Black Hills, Mount Rushmore, Deadwood and other area highlights. Communication with the host was quick and helpful

Hideaway cabin in Custer
Nicely appointed cabin up a hill on a wooded lot overlooking Custer. Nice deck, wildlife. (Deer and chipmunks), kitchen, and location. Only downside was traffic noise when out on the deck.

Pine Beetle Burn Gathering
The cabin on the hillside had stunning views and exceeded my expectations! The home is spacious and well laid out for entertaining. We were 3 couples and had plenty of space for everyone to be comfortable and play games. The foosball table and the gas fireplace were the indoor highlights that were enjoyed by all! It was a comfortable walk downtown with deer and turkeys on the way down the drive. I will be staying at this home in the future for family and friend gatherings! The hosts were very responsive making the whole trip a breeze.

Custer basecamp
Fabulous house. Fabulous views. Great response time from managers. Centrally located to Mount Rushmore, Crazy House, Keystone and too many more attractions to name here. Would definitely stay here again with family and friends. We were traveling with two developmentally disabled adults. One who needs wheelchair accessible entries and showers. We were able to back up the van to the ramp on the side of house, get out her van ramp and transfer her easily from van to house. Accessible shower and large bathroom in master were perfect for her limited mobility needs with plenty of room to work in. Decks offered beautiful views of Custer and the surrounding areas. Quiet relaxing place to eat and visit. We used the gas grill one night with no problems. The first evening we arrived there was a small doe in the front right off the deck. We watched her for about an hour. Perfect place to come back to after a day of sightseeing.

What a wonderful place to stay. We took our kids for a little getaway in between Christmas and the New Year. We had a fantastic time and the place was just as described. There were 6 of us and we had more than plenty of room. Beautiful scenery and fun wildlife to look out for. We would highly recommend.

Birthday Celebration
The perfect location to celebrate my 50th birthday with my family. Home had the right amount of room for the adults kids to hang-out after a day of visiting the Black Hills. The kitchen was well equipped with good quality appliance and dishes. Enjoyed the view from the hillside and how secluded we all felt being so close to town. Jody was so helpful and quick to answer any questions. We really appreciated her response when we experience a glitch with the hot wwater and sped in trying to get it fixed. I will definitely bring my family back to this home for another fall exploration next fall.

Secluded and Peaceful
This was a perfect set up for 2 couples. The 2 separate seating areas worked great since we woke up at different times. We were able to have quiet time before getting ready for the day. It was a great location which gave us quick access to the highway to go to many of the local attractions in the Hills. We stayed in November so didn’t use the deck, but it would be great for others if staying during warmer weather. Kitchen was supplied with everything we needed. Beds were comfortable and it was very clean.

Great Get-a-Way!
This property was perfect for a fall trip... we spent most of our time relaxing... reading on the decks, hiking, walking, going on drives... the cabin was well-appointed with everything we needed. The weather was absolutely perfect. The location was perfect as well - definitely felt like we were out of town and in the hills, yet just a short walk to downtown Custer! Would definitely stay again. Thanks!

Wonderful location and home!
Everything was even better than expected! We were centrally located to many parks and activities. Minutes from downtown Custer but house feels far away from everything, very private. House is fully stocked, Jody has done a great job making you feel at home and was great at responding. Enjoyed watching the birds, chipmunks, squirrels, and deer from the decks. Would definitely stay here again and highly recommend!
