Perfect location to explore the Black Hills

Great location. The cabin was clean and the firepit was well maintained. Our kids loved to play in the forest behind the cabin. I would book this place again if I return to the Black Hills.

Graduation Trip

Had a great 2 days. It was close to mount Rushmore and crazy horse. Fell in love with South Dakota and this place was part of it. Very quiet stay and had a deer come right next to the house. We would definitely stay here again.

Great location

The house is beautiful and in a great location. Plenty of beds for our party of seven but enough seating in living and dining room. Very clean but need better lighting in bedrooms. Thank you for letting us stay in your lovely home.

Beautiful Home in the heart of the Black Hills

We had a four night stay in this beautiful home. The kitchen is well supplied with everything you may need to do your own cooking. Our favorite gathering spot was the covered deck. It was nicely furnished with table and chairs and had a large gas grill. The Master bedroom is very large and the secondary bedrooms are small. We could make this work but it has the potential to be an issue for some adult groups. Our one disappointment was the state of the living room furniture. There was an electric recliner that did not work, a floor lamp that did not work and none of us were able to sit for any length of time on the sofa due to it being uncomfortable. Gratefully, we were outdoors for much of our stay and for the most part enjoyed this home. The location is also great as it sits outside of Custer just a couple of miles. We had great access to the sites of the Black Hills.

Black Hills getaway

Check in and check out we’re super easy. Plenty of room for everyone. Loved the deck for morning coffee. Close to everything we wanted to do. Bonfires at night were relaxing. The big grill on the deck was perfect for dinners. 👍

Vacation to South Dakota

Beautiful house. Saw Deer just about every day. Our grandson and granddaughter enjoyed climbing the hill back of the house. Good Location if you want to visit Black Hills, Custer State Park, Mt. Rushmore and other sights in the area. Custer is only a couple of miles away and some great places to eat. Plenty of shopping.

I hesitate to write a glowing review as I hate for others to occupy this house, however our stay her

I hesitate to write a glowing review as I hate for others to occupy this house, however our stay here was magical. We stayed over Christmas 8 people total. The size and quality of the house was fantastic. The scenery was indescribably beautiful. The kitchen was amazingly well outfitted enough for us to prepare a complete turkey and ham Christmas dinner. The price was an astounding value. We hope to utilize this wonderful place again. Thank you RVR staff for a family Christmas that we will always treasure! It was so easy to make this reservation, and questions were answered quickly by the knowledgeable, friendly staff.

Piece and Privacy

This is a great property just a few minutes from Custer but still private and in an area that gives you the natural feel of the Black Hills geology. The house had everything we needed, was clean and comfortable. I will say the entertainment system was far more complex than needed for a vrbo. Also watch that porch lamp at the front door, I smacked my head twice on that thing. Overall this is a great place, We loved it and had a great time here and will definitely return.

We loved the house and property and location from town. We visited at the end of April, (off season). Overall a great place and great stay, I would say the entertainment system is far more complex than needed for a VRBO. Also watch your head on that front porch light, it scalped me twice. The code that we received to open the front door did not work. I called and left a message with the staff after hours and received a call back in just a few minutes. They gave us a second code and we were in.

Great Location

Enjoyed our stay! So close to all the sights. Nothing like waking up to watching the deer walk right past. The home was perfect. Plenty of room to spread out. I think it was one of our favorite stops on our trip.

The property and location were wonderful.

The property and location were wonderful. The basement had a smell of odor like water hadn’t been run in a while causing the line from the washer to have an odor that was way less than pleasant to sleep through. We loved that we were able to hike outside and were excited when it was cool enough to sip coffee on the amazing deck each morning. We were a bit disappointed that we were told it came with a garage but it was locked and the key pad code to get the keys were not given to us and did not match the keypad for the front door. Overall, though, it was a wonderful vacation and we’re glad we chose this home.

Wonderful location

Everything was good..didn’t realize there was no central air..the two hot days we ran the window air conditioner from primary bedroom with fan blowing into main room. The 2 lower bedrooms stayed cool. We never did figure out opener to garage but didn’t need it. We loved the privacy..campfire fire pit was awesome and the kids loved the backyard fort! The kitchen was well stocked. Thx for a great vacation!

Rental property

Overall we enjoyed our stay, but some improvements could be made to the rental house. 1. A hand rail needs to be installed on the other side of the staircase because the stairs are dangerous where you make the curve going down. 2. More seating needs to be provided in the living room. A hard wooden bench is worthless! 3. The big hole at the edge of the driveway is dangerous and needs flags or cones put around it. 1 & 3 are possible law suits waiting to happen! We did love the serenity of the property. Just a few suggestions before someone gets injured.
