Grandma's House in the Woods, only one mile from Custer

My folks' old place just south of Custer, a converted pole barn on five wooded acres of peace and quiet. Plenty of parking for trailers and toys, one 50 amp RV hookup adjacent to house. Easy access, garage parking may be available, a large front porch for sitting, sipping, and relaxing and for watching the deer, birds, turkeys, and cottontails. Sleeps up to 8, dog friendly. High speed fiber optic internet, room 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 the golf course. A third full bath is being added this Spring.

We had a great time staying at Grandma's Cabin. It is centrally located to so many beautiful sites in Custer, SD. It was clean, and had everything we needed. Vicki, the host, was so sweet and attentive. My only complaint was that we didn't know the second bathroom was in the garage.
