Comfortable base for area activities

We enjoyed our 3 night stay. It's a nice clean little cabin and very easy to access. We especially enjoyed the front porch and patio furniture with sun umbrella - a great place to have meals. It was central to almost all of our vacation activities. The hosts were very responsive to any questions or needs. Highly recommend for 1-2 people.

Cute little cabin close to center of Custer

My husband and I enjoyed a wonderful three day visit to Custer in September. This small cabin is very cute and perfect for two people. The owner and staff were excellent as was the location. Just outside town, we enjoyed the peacefulness and beauty of the Black Hills; yet close to everything. We also loved our visits by the little bunnies and deer. Would definitely return !

Wonderful little Gem.

It is not a five star resort. It is a small worn tiny home. But it is a perfect little private romantic quiet place to stay. Denise was very quick in responding. Everything that was needed was there. We have been traveling to the Black hills every year for 26 years and this is way better than a hotel. There are RV sites next to the tiny cabin but there were no RV's during our stay.

David, thank you for the very supportive review...we appreciated having you stay with us and considering the amount of visits you've made over the years to the area, we were fortunate to have you stay with us. Since this was our first summer owning and managing this property, we decided not have any RV's so we can focus on the Lodge and Cabin for 'year 1'. Regards, Star Lodge Staff

Summer Fun

My husband and I had no issues with finding the property and check-in instructions were detailed so getting into our little cabin was easy. The cabin was small and perfect for my husband and I. It has a queen size bed. We have a king at home and it was super helpful to discover a trundle bed under the queen. My husband and I both had our own beds and slept amazing. We traveled with our mini poodle. Her kennel fit perfectly under the cupboard. The land around the cabin is perfect for an evening walks with your pet or family. The shower had a rain head on it. Good water pressure and stayed hot. The cabin had shampoo, conditioner, body wash and lotion to use. No fan in the bathroom but property provided a candle. The owners are very nice and super helpful. They provide continental breakfast. Parking for the cabin was easy. Activites around Custer will keep you busy. Wildlife loop in custer state park was amazing. Watch for ticks.

Great place to explore the southern Black Hills are

My wife and I enjoyed our stay at Eagles Nest and we would definitely stay again. The cabin was very clean and well appointed. The bed was comfortable. The kitchen, while small, had what we needed to cook our meals which we did exclusively. The property manager and staff communicated very well and were helpful. In one situation where we found ourselves in a bit of a jam they went out their way to help us out and come up with a solution.

Custer Cabin Experience

We loved staying in this quaint cabin.y husband and I were on a vacation to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary. This property is at a prime location as it is only a few miles and easy drive to all the major Black Hills tourist attractions. We appreciated that we could stay to ourselves in the cabin but the owner and other guests were fun to interact with and we also had access to the lodge! Great location, wonderful service, overall fantastic experience! Deb and her crew work hard to make it a wonderful, comfortable stay!
