Wonderful stay
Loved the house and especially the deck. Everything you possibly needed she had and great supplies. House was very clean. The house is very close to Custer just minutes away. Seen deer and lots of wild turkeys. The hosts were great and answered your questions very quickly. We wish all the best to them and Thank you for everything you have done for us.

Best VRBO
We have stayed at many VRBOs and this was the cleanliest, the best stocked with essentials (hand soap, paper towels, ziplock bags, etc.) that we have EVER been to. The kitchen was fully stocked like someone lives there at all times. Stocked with spices, small appliances for your convenience too (our favorite was the waffle maker). They even have filtered water from a drinking water faucet (which is RARE), everything was labeled and organized. Not to mention the amazing chef's kitchen with high end appliances. We loved our stay and is the PERFECT location if you're looking to do any of the attractions around Custer. Thanks Stan and Shirley

About the host

Hosted by Stan & Shirley Burgers

Host profile image
We have always enjoyed vacationing in the Black Hills with our children over the years. As we near retirement we chose to build this home in the Custer area to be closer to our children and grandchildren who now live in Colorado.

Why they chose this property

We spent about 5 years searching for just the right place to build this home and hope you will enjoy it as much as we do. It is close enough to Custer, Hill City & even Rapid City for all of our needs, and yet secluded enough to provide the peace and quiet that we long for as we near retirement.

What makes this property unique

We do hope that you will enjoy your stay at our "piece of heaven" enough to return from time to time and to share what you liked about your stay with your friends and family.
