Comfortable cozy home! Perfect for our trip to the Black Hills. The kids loved the outdoor area .. and we got to cookout and start a campfire one night. The home had mostly everything we needed.
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.
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!!
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!

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!
The Quietness rock views off the beaten path. very nice little place

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! ☺️
