About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Log cabin (renovated in 2021) nestled in a beautiful valley within the Black Hills National Forest. The cabin is secluded with only one other rental cabin on the property (Cabin 1, VRBO #2418812). Your morning view will often include white tail and mule deer coming down the hillside to graze in the meadow. Within minutes of Custer State Park, this charming studio cabin includes amenities of a full kitchen, spacious bathroom, internet and Dish TV, gas grill, and can sleep 4 guests with a queen bed and queen sofa sleeper. After a day of enjoying all the Black Hills has to offer, spend your evening relaxing around the fire pit.
In 2024 our internet provider finished their fiber optics installation, now providing us with high-speed internet service.
The Cabin is located at 12554 Hazelrodt Cutoff which is 3 miles from Custer, SD, 1.2 miles south on Sydney Park Road, county oil, 1.9 miles east on Hazelrodt Cutoff, county gravel, then left at the HIDDEN VALLEY CABIN sign, follow the driveway to the second cabin on the right.
Great cabin for a couple or a family up to 4. This cabin along with cabin 1 would be a great option for two families to enjoy their vacation together.
We have a trail camera, when it is turned on it only covers the parking area and the fire pit (not the cabins or the area around the cabins). We generally turn the trail camera on to see when our guests arrive and to monitor the fire pit since the property is in the middle of the Black Hills National Forest.

During your stay at this cabin, you'll be close to French Creek. Free WiFi and a kitchen are available in the cabin.

Air-conditioned cabin with kitchen, sofa bed and TVs
Free WiFi
On-site recreation includes a playground
10 minutes by car from Black Hills National Forest and 13 minutes from Custer State Park

Secluded Cabin in the Heart of the Black Hills offers its guests barbecue grills and a garden. The front desk is open around the clock.

This Custer cabin is smoke free.

Perfect Get-Away

The charming cabin was quiet and off the beaten tourist track yet close enough to enjoy all the Black Hills had to offer. It was well equipped with everything we needed and the hosts were friendly and attentive.

Family vacation

The little cabin was perfect for me and my 3 teenage kids. The location was great, and private. The property was clean and well maintained, as advertised. The owner was quick to respond to my one and only request. Overall, was exactly what we were looking for and needed. Every activity and site we were wanting to see/do was nearby. We would definitely recommend. Thanks

Great Location

This little cabin was wonderful. One thing that the listing does not clearly state is that there is another cabin right there next to it that is also vrbo, not a problem just nice to know. It was a quiet, clean, comfortable stay, also with a great location being only a few minutes from Custer but also out in the woods. We would definitely stay here again.

Secluded and peaceful

This is our third time staying here. Cabin 2 is a perfectly appointed studio with everything you could wish for. It’s scrupulously clean and the hosts have done everything to make it comfortable including installing A/C. It’s super quiet yet only about 10 minutes from downtown Custer. Enjoy a peaceful morning with your coffee on the porch listening to the birdsong!

Wonderful cabin in a gorgeous setting

The cabin was just as described in the listing. The cabin and all of the kitchen equipment appeared new. There was a TV and the WiFi worked very well. Check in and check out procedures were very clear. The location is very convenient to the surrounding attractions and easy to get to. I highly recommend this cabin.

We were so very pleased with the cabin, the amenities, the location, the privacy and the owners of the property. Very clean and the location is fantastic. Close to everything you would want to do in the Custer State Park area. We will rent from them again and we have already given referrals to friends and family. Loved our stay. You will not be disappointed.

Black Hills Getaway

My husband and I traveled to Custer, SD, to explore the Black Hills, Crazy Horse, Mt. Rushmore and Custer State Park. These attractions are all within minutes of this cute, little, secluded cabin. It offered all the comforts of home. Check in was super easy! GPS directions are a bit funky, but the owners provided us with proper directions and we had no problems finding it. There is a grocery store and gas station within minutes. Beautiful scenery and some wildlife!

This was our 2nd time staying at this property and it will not be our last! It is a beautiful, secluded cabin just a few minutes’ drive from Custer. The cabin has everything you might want and the bed is very comfortable. Everything is exactly as portrayed in the photos. The hosts were extremely responsive and gave us great suggestions on things to do. I highly recommend this property!
