One Level Log Home on 3.5 Acres, Beautiful Views, Newly Updated

Description:

Beautiful three bedroom, two bath, log home with new modern amenities. An open floor plan that allows family and friends to inclusively prepare meals while enjoying wonderful views of the natural beauty from every window and the crackling of the fireplace and/or while watching the 65” television with free Wi-Fi internet access. Two king size beds and one queen over queen bunk bed.

For those looking for alone time, there is an open air three season reading room ideal for phone calls, work or simply reading a book in an oversized leather chair with a cup of hot coffee or a chilled adult beverage.

The kitchen has pots, pans, plates, utensils, etc. to create memorable vacation meals and offers a healthy economical alternative to eating meals at local restaurants. Also, unlike many of the rural homes in the Black Hills area, there is excellent well water available from the tap. In fact, most folks choose to bottle our fresh ice cold tap water for their day trips.

COVID-19:

Please follow the current recommended PPE protocols during the time of travel.

Weather Considerations and Access:

The weather in South Dakota, although unpredictable, is beautiful. The air is fresh with moderate temperatures during the summer months. Occasional afternoon showers will not be an access concern, unlike many rentals in the Black Hills having miles of dirt roads, because the house has a paved driveway. No cause for concern with the summer hail as the house has an overly large attached two car garage available for parking your personal car, motorcycle and/or the rental car.

Wildlife:

Almost daily, deer frequent the yard in the evenings, bluebirds abound and squirrels playfully chatter from the trees.

Additional Amenities:

We have fishing poles available for kids to enjoy the free fishing, for those 12 years of age or younger, in the many nearby lakes, without parents having to invest in this gear for a one time vacation outing. Lawn chairs and coolers are also made available. For those with toddlers or babies, we provide a Pack-n-Play and a booster seat for the car.

Local Access:

The house is less than 1 mile from the community golf course, 3 miles from downtown Custer, 3 miles from a new 76 bed community hospital, 6 miles from the Custer State Park entrance, 9 miles from Crazy Horse Memorial, 20 miles from Mt. Rushmore and 72 miles of beautiful Black Hills riding to Sturgis. In fact, the best riding in the Black Hills is in the Custer area through the Needles Highway.

One of the best
This was are fist Vrbo and the host knocked it out of the park with the little extras that were provided for condiments. This experience may take us to rent Vrbo instead of hotels going forward. The wildlife and scenery around the cabin was beautiful. The host answered all questions quickly. If ever in the black hills area check out this place.

We loved staying at this cabin. It was plenty large for our family and we enjoyed the peace and quiet of the neighborhood. The wood fireplace made for a cozy stay. It had everything we needed and was the perfect place to enjoy our time in the black hills.

Great Stay!!
This is an amazing home and property. The house sits on an incredible lot so there’s lots of room and great views. We have never stayed in a house that was so well stocked - everything you could possibly need or want! The house is beautiful and very clean and comfortable. Friendly neighbors and close to Custer and all the attractions. Hosts were very responsive to any questions we had. We would definitely come back!

We are group of 8 ( 6 of us out of Europe). We are very happy we had an opportunity to stay in this house. It gave us a chance to meet Nancy and get in touch with the owner, very pleasant and attentive individuals. The house by itself help us to relax and radiated good energy. This was such a great stay. Property is clean, kitchen very well stuffed, neighborhood very safe, view from the porch is amazing. We will be back if possible. We are highly recommending this cabin.

We were in town for our sons wedding and the house was perfect, family gathered together with plenty of room. The house was loaded with helpful extras. We asked if we could arrive a little early and that wasn’t a problem. They were very accommodating. We would recommend this property to everyone.

Perfect place
My husband and I both agree this vacation home is worth reserving again! The location was perfect. Many of our excursions were within a short drive, and the comforts of home awaited us at the end of our really long days. The acreage gave us privacy and quiet and opportunity to see or smell wildlife! We had a special guest, the neighborhood dog, and she accepted our treat offerings graciously and gently. Super great owners to share such a lovely home and super sweet neighbor who is a phone call away if the need should arise. Thank you to you all for a wonderful home away from home. Barefoot rating of A!!!!! My own home rarely gets that high mark.

Perfect and Stress Free Stay
From check in to check out - property manger was responsive. There was enough space for everyone, 6 people and 3 pets, to just relax and enjoy. There was only 1 TV, but that turned out to not be an issue at all. I was pleasantly surprised with how well stocked the cabin was, including, games/activities for kids and even pet beds/treats/leashes/collars. EVERYTHING was taken care of - Thank you!

Custer Trip
The house felt clean, however there was quite a bit of pet hair throughout the home. The kitchen was well stocked and we had everything we needed for cooking meals. The beds were comfortable. Our younger boys enjoyed the queen sized bunk beds. The property surrounding the home was very pretty, lots of trees. We saw a few deer. The house is a safe distance off the highway but you can hear traffic noise from the back deck/yard. Short drive into town and the wildlife loop.

The best property
This is our third year in a row staying in South Dakota for vacation. We’ve stayed at other rentals all over the states but this by far is the best one ever. Besides the location being close to everything in the hills and beyond…this place was stocked to the ceiling with amenities. The only thing we bought was meat and sides. Everything was there for us. There was games, a huge TV, so many blankets to warm up with, Pots, pans…You name it and it was there. The bunk bed was a huge hit with my four girls. The beds were great and super comfy. The back deck and sun room was a favorite place to hang out. The fact that this house is dog friendly was wonderful. We brought our husky and Boston. The husky never wanted to come inside, the weather was beautiful. Nice during the day and chilly at night. We just opened windows to control the temperature inside. The house is perfect and in our favorite town in South Dakota. We are considering moving we love it soo much. Just book the house, no regrets.

Perfect location
This location was absolutely perfect for exploring Custer State Park, Mt Rushmore and other sites. Custer itself has some great places to eat, so it was wonderful to come home to. The house is stocked with all the things you need (including generous snacks!) My kids loved swinging and playing in the yard, but the bunk bed was quite wobbly. Side note: showers are small. If you are on the last/large size, you may want to take this into consideration.

I'm not really sure where to begin honestly. This was the most perfect place for my family and I. Arlene had the cabin well stocked with really anything you can think of or possibly need! It was beautiful inside and out. Plenty of room, rest and relaxation for all 6 of us! Our fur baby also enjoyed his stay, there was dog bowls if needed and leads outside for him. I would absolutely recommend this home for anyone in the area and we will be back! Thank you for providing such a wonderful place for the family!
