Beautiful Home on 1 acre just outside of Custer backs up to forest service

Come and enjoy our NEW vacation home in the southern black hills. Our home is located in picturesque Custer, SD. The home sits well back from the road (paved) on 1 acre and backs up to US Forest Service property. The main floor of our home includes master bedroom with king bed, 2nd bedroom with a queen bed, bathroom with tub & shower combination, laundry, fully equipped spacious kitchen, dining table, and living area with TV. The second floor has one bedroom with 2 full size beds, full bathroom with shower, and sitting room which contains a queen size futon and TV. This home is well suited for families, but not ideal for groups containing more than 6 adults. Home has a large wrap around deck with outdoor furniture and a Weber gas bbq. This is a great way to enjoy the beautiful evenings in Custer. There are many fire restrictions in Custer County so for your protection and ours there are no open fires on this property. This property does not have air conditioning, however the upstairs has opposing windows with box fans. The fans do a phenomenal job cooling the home on the rare occasion AC would be required.

This property is the perfect jumping off spot for all of the activities available in the Black Hills. Located just minutes from Custer State Park, Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse and Jewel Cave just to name a few. This is the perfect place to enjoy a relaxing stay while enjoying the natural beauty of the area.

Great house and location

This was a fantastic house for two adult couples. Plenty of space, great location, and fully stocked kitchen. We loved having the deck to relax in the cool weather in the evenings and have coffee on in the morning. The host was extremely prompt with communication and the pictures in the listing were exactly as seen. We would highly recommend this place.

Over all great!!

Over all it was a great place to stay, road noise was a little loud. There wasn't enough shower towels for everyone but we were able to find beach towels to use. We did have to go buy toliet paper because there wasn't enough left for us for the amount of time we were there. The kitchen was definitely stocked with everything a person could want or need. Beds were very comfortable.

Cozy Acre was a great place to stay. Every attraction you might want to visit is right around the corner. The small town feeling of Custer really helps you escape the rat race.
