About this cabin rental

Located in West Custer Township, this lovely cabin for $422 per night is a great choice for your next vacation. Golden Valley Ranch is a wonderful single story 3 bedroom, 2 bath log cabin sitting at the back of 7.02 acres surrounded by National Forest Service on 3 sides . The inside of the home is open and light plus there are views from just about every direction you look. There are two king sized beds, a smaller bedroom with a trundle (two singles) along with a queen sized sofa sleeper in the living room. All bedrooms and living areas have ceiling fans. There are two small ponds on the property fed by a natural spring that bubbles out next to the deck. The National Forest is out the back gate for those of you who want to ride four wheelers. A nice large deck with table and chairs is accessed from the kitchen door and has a gas grill for those cooking adventures! There is a wooden bridge that crosses the small creek at the upper pond so you can walk to enjoy the outdoors in the meadow. Enjoy the variety of wildlife and view from the front deck. Deer, fox, turkey and marmots are common sights. The veranda (all glass windows) front porch is a wonderful place to sit and enjoy the scenic beauty for morning coffee or evening beverages. It is 1-1/2 miles to the entrance of Custer State Park and Stockade Lake. The tall pine trees, the wildlife, the seclusion, bordering National Forest and being close to the town of Custer make this the ideal place to stay. Come see for yourself.

We arrived to a thunderstorm with heavy rain and hail. Then the weather cleared and we saw how beautiful the property was. So quiet and peaceful it made you want to just sit and relax. Thank you for sharing your cabin with us.

The location of this house is fantastic! You feel like you are in your own hidden oasis. The house was clean, spacious and comfortable. It was so quiet that we slept with the windows open every night! We really appreciated the extras that came with the house (I.e. seasonings, coffee, board games and puzzles, etc.). We would definitely stay here again!

Everyone who entered the cabin were impressed. It was clean, comfortable, and located in a beautiful area. There was wildlife to watch, deer, rock chucks, and lots of birds. I would recommend this property to anyone wanting a great place to stay. We had 8 sleeping and many friends and family show came to spend time. I would go back in a minute.

Staying here made me want to move to South Dakota--but would need to return to the South in the winters. This was more than we could have asked for--the starry nights, the wildlife, the quiet and privacy-perfect. We had wonderful communication with our hostess and could not have asked for anything else. Thank you for a wonderful VRBO stay.

If you want peace and quiet, this is the place. If you want a lot of scenic drives, this is the place. Elaine and Kirby are awesome hosts, both with knowledge of the area, and responsiveness to communication. They definitely make you feel like Family. Will definitely stay here again. Cabin and surroundings are beautiful, don’t think I’ve slept this well in a long time. My hat’s off to Elaine and Kirby for such a great experience and rental. Best Regards, Rich Derby

It’s private but easy access to Custer. The surrounding landscape is nothing short of awesome. Great hiking trail, wildlife, and a deck where we spent a lot of time. The house is generously supplied with kitchen equipment, quilts and places to relax. The three season front porch extends the full width of this log home.

The property as shown on VRBO was as we expected. Home was clean, well furnished and had ample staples for our stay. We enjoyed the tranquility of the location & spent most of our ‘at home’ time on the deck looking at deer and small animals. The proximity to Custer and the southwest Black Hills attractions was ideal. Only a short hour trip to Deadwood/Lead area. We highly recommend this property for a family vacation in the beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota.

This house is exactly like it was pictured and described. It was perfect in every way. Elaine and Kirb thought of everything we would need during our stay. It is the perfect location to a avoid the hustle and bustle. Watching the deer, marmots, sitting by the fire and listening to the creek was relaxing. Definitely our favorite house by far out of the six years we have been coming to Custer.

This cabin provided everything we were looking for and more! It was spacious, clean, cozy, and had a homey, cabin-feel. There were plenty of dishes, pots, pans, spices and other materials one might need to easily prepare a meal. The host, Elaine, was very responsive and even went out of her way to provide a shower chair and collasible chairs for my my disabled mother. The pull-up external entrance to her room only had one step and there was a walk-in shower. The view near the cabin and the fire pit were a bonus, as well as the fact that it was easy to navigate to and from off of a main road. There were plenty of incredible things to do close by and it made for a very memorable trip - my mom's favorite was the wildlife loop where we drove through a herd of buffalo. And for those who are looking for fishing, there are 2 amazing lakes and a few creeks very close to the cabin. We caught the most fish that we have caught in years! Pike, blue-gill, crappie, perch, bullheads and trout. I HIGHLY recommend staying here!! THANK YOU for opening up your vacation home to us!!! We greatly appreciated it!

After too long being apart, our family of siblings & their spouses decided to meet in the Black Hills. I found this cabin bordered on 3 sides by National forest & it sounded perfect. This was better than perfect! We walked into a beautiful cabin in the woods, stocked with everything we would have in our own homes, minus a trip to the grocery store! Coffee, hot chocolate, popcorn, & more awaited us. We had enough toilet paper & other paper products for the entire stay. When an unexpected snowstorm blew in, we talked to the owners to learn where the snow shovel was, how to get off the property if needed, etc. We LOVED being snowed in for a day & a half! And we had no issue getting out. This is truly a home away from home. A perfect cabin in the woods. Thank you Elaine & Kirby!

We had a fantastic stay, everything was immaculately clean on our arrival, and the location was great for what we had planned to do. There were yard games for the kids, a great two track out back of the house for running, and comfortable chairs on the porch to relax after a full day. If we ever come back for another visit we would look this property up again!
