The Home was Amazing. The perfect space to visit Custer State Park. The road in and out is a little dusty... Neighbors do not seem thrilled with a VRBO in the neighborhood, but honestly we did not even see them and had zero issues. Hope to be back another Day:)

We had a great stay! We had 17 family members all together to celebrate our mom and dad/ grandma and grandpa 55th wedding Anniversary! The cabin was perfect! It is beautiful and well stocked with everything we needed!!

Beautiful setting, plenty of room for our family of 13 & very clean. This is a very well stocked home. From spices, dishes, baking stuff to a roaster & crockpot. We loved it and will be back.

The property has everything you need which is covered well in the listing. Two things i found pleasing that I thought I would share.
1. The main level fireplace is wood burning. Since our stay was in November, we enjoyed having a fire every evening. It’s also a very nice wood burning unit. (Everything on this property is nice)
2. The exterior grill and blackstone are plumbed into the main propane line. They are also on a timer for efficiency and safety. One of the biggest concerns for me when renting a cabin is the quality of the outdoor cooking and running out of propane since that is how we cook all of our meals.
