About this property

Granite Springs

Summary:

Step into the Tenderfoot Valley and feel the Black Hills beauty surround you.



The Space:

Step into the Tenderfoot Valley and feel the Black Hills beauty surround you. This beautiful cabin hosts a gorgeous creek with a pond and is bordered by the National Forest on two sides. Enjoy the wildlife and views of the granite cliffs and forest from the covered deck. The Granite Springs cabin is a perfect combination of convenience and being in the forest. It is privately situated on more than 5 acres of meadow, pines and rock outcroppings between Hill City and Custer.



There is just a short distance (just 1/2 a mile) from the highway to this home, leaving very little gravel for motorcycles guests. Hike, bike, or run on the neighboring Mickelson Trail and unwind in the evenings on the beautiful covered deck. It's not hard to see why guests of the Granite Springs cabin never want to leave this gorgeous refuge! The cabin features a full gourmet kitchen, inside and outside dining, covered deck, 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.



Master bedroom has a queen bed with an attached 3/4 bathroom
