This is a very well maintained and thoughtfully furnished and decorated cozy cabin close to everything but tucked away down a gravel road providing a sense of privacy set in a naturally rugged Black Hills landscape with beautiful starry dark night time skies. It is very pet friendly, has very comfortable beds, and is very clean. We would definitely stay there again!

Absolutely loved the stay here! It’s quiet and out of the way, yet so close to town. So nice to have a kitchen and living space to add to the comfort. Would go back again!

The check-in to the cabin was easy and the communication with the powers was great. The property was well-kept. The cabins had everything needed to cook all your meals and supplied everything you needed for your stay for showers. It was a great location to get away from town but also close enough to go into town and visit all the areas that you wanted to. Will definitely return.

Love every moment!
The place was in a great location. The cabin was clean and provided everything we needed and more. We loved the view from the deck. Saw deer and a number of blue birds. Close to Sylvan Lake where we caught trout. We will be back!

I love that these cabins are off the main road so you feel like you are out in the country but really you are only a mile off the highway going through Custer. Kitchen well-stocked, beds comfy, nice bathroom. WiFi and a small tv were nice too.
Great communication with the owners. Very friendly.
I hope to return again someday!!

This was a great place to stay. The cabin was comfortable and in a nice quiet location.
Loved this place. Great for our little trip to see Crazy Horse and Mount Rushmore. Beds upstairs could be a little better but everything else was great. Quiet location and pet friendly.
As advertised. Comfortable accommodations. Full kitchen.

Such a beautiful cabin! Honestly easier to book on their website than using hotels.com. Had some issues with air flow inside but keeping the windows open helped! Definitely a pleasant stay! ☺️
