Needles Nest: Secluded Cabin with Hot Tub

Needles Nest offers a serene natural setting for large groups who seek a peaceful retreat with all the conveniences. The cabin has central A/C, a hot tub, and plenty of room to spread out with 5 bedrooms (2 have king beds) & 2 bathrooms.

FAMILIES: Needles Nest is kid-friendly with air hockey, foosball, board games, books, highchairs, 2 family rooms, & a large TV. Plus, all ages will love exploring the property & watching the deer & wild turkeys that visit often.

UNBEATABLE SETTING: Enjoy a cup of coffee or a quiet evening on the wrap-around deck that provides beautiful views of 3 acres of whispering pines, majestic granite outcroppings, and wildlife. The firepit (when wildfire conditions allow) & hammocks are perfect places to unwind under the stars.

PERFECT LOCATION: Countless mountain adventures are nearby: Custer State Park, Mount Rushmore, cave tours, Crazy Horse, Needles Highway, & Mickelson Trail. Plus, there’s an abundance of hiking, fishing, kayaking, UTV off-roading, and swimming just down the road. After a busy day of touring, get off the beaten path and come home to the comforts and tranquility of Needles Nest!

DISCOUNTS: Ask about reduced rates for small groups (<6) Nov-April.

VIDEO WALK-THROUGH: Search "Needles Nest: Custer SD Vacation Rental" on YouTube for a video walk-through.

Please note: Due to a short, steep hill on our gravel road, AWD is recommended if there’s ice/snow, and it’s not motorcycle-friendly.
