Great location. Walking distance to downtown shops/restaurants and centrally located for our families Black Hills adventures. The Custer State park pass was a big plus. Was great to have our dog be able to come with us.
Property served its purpose of a place to stay with the kids and dog. Location was convenient and property overall was clean and well stocked with supplies. Property could use some general upkeep. Fence needs some work, shower has clear signs of quick fixes. Certainly not a luxury stay but a comfortable option for traveling with pets and being available last minute.
Cute little house. Made our stay in Custer comfortable.We even got to grill and hang out without feeling stressed like you would in a hotel.We would recommend this place for others.
It was an easy walk to town and close to senic roads and Custer State park. The pass for the park we got with the rental was a nice touch. The fenced in yard was nice for our dogs.
The first thing we noticed was the cleanliness of the property. The neighborhood is quiet and safe. The fenced yard was perfect for our dogs. Beds were very comfy and house is stocked with all of the essentials.
We loved the town of Custer and this charming house was right in the heart of it. We were able to walk to restaurants and shops. The location was also a perfect jumping off point for seeing the sites in the Black Hills. We went far and wide and decided our favorite excursion was a day in Custer State Park, where we saw Bison and Prairie Dogs and a host of other wildlife. It was awesome to come home each day to the peaceful little cottage where we ended the evening with a movie and then to bed. The matresses were heaven!
This property was perfect for our 3 night stay in Custer. My daughter had her own room which she enjoyed. I really liked the fact that I could sip my coffee while sitting on the porch in the morning. My wife really liked the bed which was far more comfortable than the hotel beds we slept on the few nights before.
Just about everything in Custer is within walking distance of the cottage.
It was perfect.
The location was perfect, close enough to walk to every where in town if others wanted to drive to a further destination. It was a quiet neighborhood and the home was clean and comfortable. Everyone agreed the beds were heaven! The only thing I would add is a small dresser in each bedroom and more towel bars or hooks in the bathroom. We would stay there again.
Owner very helpful and accomadating to our needs. Fair and reasonable! Thanks for giving us this opportunity to see South Dakota!

About the host
Hosted by Adam VonFeldt
We are the VonFeldt’s. A family of 5 that loves travel and adventure. My name is Adam and my wife’s name is Savana. Our three kids are Link, Avalon, and Riggins. Both Savana and I grew up in the midwest, but moved and met in Arizona after college. My work is remote, and Savana is a teacher, so we are able to escape the summer heat in Arizona and road trip back to the midwest every summer to visit family and friends. Over the past several years we would travel through the Black Hills of South Dakota and fell in love with it so much that we decided to get a vacation home in Custer. We are thrilled to share our Cute Custer Cottage with you.
