About this property

Cabin W/Guest Quarters on 5 Acres....Great for 2 Families - 1 Mile from Town

Due to bedroom layouts - may not be appropriate for children under 12

A true "cabin in the woods" experience. 5 private acres but one mile from the town of Custer. The cedar house has ceramic tile floors throughout, leather furniture, new kitchen appliances and LOTS of windows.

The main house sleeps 2 in the master bedroom, 1-2 in the attached 'western room' (accessed outside from the porch) and 1 in a portable twin. The guest house sleeps 2 in the main studio room and 1-2 in the small bedroom.

The master bedroom is furnished in aspen log with a queen bed and master bath. A utility room off the kitchen sleeps 1 in a twin bed w/access to the main bathroom and its own entrance. The porch outside the utility room gives access to the 'western room' which has a full size bed with beautiful rock and cedar walls (not appropriate for children under 12)

The Guest quarters is setup like a studio apartment (minus a kitchen) but with a bathroom/shower. The main room has a queen size bed, sofa, tv, armoire, small fridge. The second room has a full size bed a separate entrance and all the character of a cabin setting. (not appropriate for unattended children)

The property has 2 security cameras outside. One on the carport and the other on the northeast corner of the house

We also have a pak'n play and a booster chair w/tray.

There are 4 covered porches the favorite and largest is partially enclosed with comfy wicker furniture. It's a favorite spot for morning coffee, watching thunderstorms or sipping cocktails in the evening. From any porch you can enjoy the view, peacefulness and wildlife.

Custer is in an area known as the 'heart' of the hills and local attractions include Mount Rushmore, Custer State Park, Jewel and Wind Caves, the scenic Needles Highway. It is also 6 miles from Crazy Horse Mountain, several lakes and approximately 45 miles from historic Deadwood and the Rapid City airport. This area also attracts motorcyclists especially during the Sturgis motorcycle rally. We also welcome hunters for deer, elk and turkey season. In the fall Custer State Park hosts the famous Buffalo Roundup and Arts Festival.

Cozy Retreat
Being from the flat lands of Illinois we had a lot of goals to check off. Our cozy retreat was just perfect! It was close to town for supplies, central to all our destinations and serene in our down time.

I live in beautiful Colorado foothills.

Why they chose this property

I fell in love with the Black Hills after several trips to the Sturgis motorcycle rallies. The hills and rock formation are beautiful, peaceful and scenic with lots of history. I love the small town slow pace.

What makes this property unique

Most people can't decide if they should stay and hang out at the cabin or if they should go sight seeing or tour other area attractions. It is so relaxing you won't want to leave!!
