About this property

Grandma's House in the Woods, 3/4 mile to Custer

  • Grandma's is my folks retirement home just south of Custer, a converted pole barn on five wooded acres, wrapped by another 5 acres of wooded County easements. Plenty of parking for trailers and toys, one 50 amp RV hookup adjacent to house. Quiet subdivision road provides a nice place for an evening walk, or you can stroll down to the golf course. Easy access just off the highway, about two blocks of smooth dirt road, and one garage bay available for parking in case of hail. A large front porch for sitting and relaxing and for watching the deer, birds, turkeys, and cottontails, or just sitting with your morning coffee or afternoon cold drink. Weber gas grill on front porch. Side patio on south side of house. Sleeps up to 8, dog friendly. High speed fiber optic internet, bedroom AC units, full kitchen, commercial W/D, lower level handicap accessible including main bathroom and master bedroom. Minutes to Custer State Park, Crazy Horse, Mt. Rushmore, Mickelson Trail just across the highway. One mile to restaurants, shopping and gifts, pharmacy, grocery store, service stations. Trail rides, fishing, boating, hiking, helicopter rides, and adventure vehicle rentals and bicycles close by. Property backs up to Rocky Knolls, our local municipal 9-hole golf course. Lots of room for croquet or badminton. Game table in loft. **(NOTE: I'm currently residing in my tiny home/camper 30 yards from house at NE corner of property while repairs from the winter wind and hail storms is ongoing, and while addition of upstairs 3rd bathroom and other major property projects are being completed. For 2026-2027 season, second bathroom is located a few steps into the garage and labeled "Outhouse." Construction is halted during summer season. My quarters are arranged for total guest privacy so you have complete run of the property, I can't see or hear you, I value my privacy too! I'm a commercial driver and am often away from home. If it's necessary to water porch plants or maintain yard areas, or for my petsitter to stop by, etc., I'll let you know in advance and/or ask your permission. I try to schedule any visit when guests are out touring for the day. I do NOT enter the house unless the guest asks me to do so.)**

We had a delightful stay at Grandma's House in the Woods. The check-in and check-out process was smooth. The home was clean and comfortable. The owner replied quickly to any questions that we had and had a repair person on the property the same day to fix one small problem with the internet connection. She contacted me about one item I left at the home, and made arrangements to mail it to me. We enjoyed the amenities and the location was lovely outside of town in the ponderosa pine forest. Would highly recommend to other guests considering a stay.

Grandma’s House was perfect for us!

We really enjoyed our stay! It was nice to be away from all the crowds, but close enough to everything we wanted to do. We enjoyed the quiet of the country feel and being able to all be together. There were 8 of us and we had plenty of room!

Exceeded Expectations!!

Grandma's House was the perfect place for us to stay during the Buffalo Round Up. It was close to town so we could easily go into Custer for whatever we may need and to check out the local shops. Very relaxing to sit on the patio and just enjoy the setting.

Wonderful Custer location

This home is on a beautiful acreage just outside of Custer. We saw deer wandering through every morning. It is a very peaceful, relaxing location and Vicki, our host, was always accommodating. The home had everything we needed for a four night stay and was very comfortable. We would stay here again.

Spacious Custer house

The house was welcoming and clean with all of the amenities we needed. Front porch was a perfect place to rest and relax, and we saw wild turkeys, deer and bunnies in the yard! Location was great, very close to Custer and just a short drive to Custer State Park. Highly recommended, especially for those traveling with dogs

Stunning, tranquil place in Custer

Excellent and well kept place. We will definitely come here again in the future. We came during the Sturgis rally and we would have not been that relaxed if we had stayed in a hotel. Staying at Grandma’s gave us some nice tranquil environment while still being close to all the amenities and the attractions that we wanted to see.
