About this house rental
Grandma's is my folks retirement home just south of Custer, a converted pole barn on five wooded acres, wrapped by another 5 acres of wooded County easements. Plenty of parking for trailers and toys, one 50 amp RV hookup adjacent to house. Quiet subdivision road provides a nice place for an evening walk, or you can stroll down to the golf course. Easy access just off the highway, about two blocks of smooth dirt road, and one garage bay available for parking in case of hail. A large front porch for sitting and relaxing and for watching the deer, birds, turkeys, and cottontails, or just sitting with your morning coffee or afternoon cold drink. Weber gas grill on front porch. Side patio on south side of house. Sleeps up to 8, dog friendly. High speed fiber optic internet, bedroom 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 Rocky Knolls, our local municipal 9-hole golf course. Lots of room for croquet or badminton. Game table in loft. **(NOTE: I'm currently residing in my tiny home/camper 30 yards from house at NE corner of property while repairs from the winter wind and hail storms is ongoing, and while addition of upstairs 3rd bathroom and other major property projects are being completed. For 2026-2027 season, second bathroom is located a few steps into the garage and labeled "Outhouse." Construction is halted during summer season. My quarters are arranged for total guest privacy so you have complete run of the property, I can't see or hear you, I value my privacy too! I'm a commercial driver and am often away from home. If it's necessary to water porch plants or maintain yard areas, or for my petsitter to stop by, etc., I'll let you know in advance and/or ask your permission. I try to schedule any visit when guests are out touring for the day. I do NOT enter the house unless the guest asks me to do so.)**

The home is beautiful it is quiet and super close to town which made it very convenient! We got to see baby birds, bunny rabbits, and deer on the property almost daily. I would like to address some of the other reviews of this property just to clarify for anyone new. Yes the owner lives on site in a camper next to the home while the home is being rented out. It does not specifically say that in the listing but that is accurate. We didn't even hear her. She was very respectfuland courteous but she is there, So just know that going into the home. As for the blinds and the bathroom window complained about by another review.... They are literally talking about one side of the blind 1/2 an inch which only showed the frane. Who left that review needs to find something better to do with their time then to complain about that. Yes the AC's are a little loud but if you're from the south you don't need them, my husband and I slept in the downstairs bedroom without the air conditioner on basically the entire time we were there. If you are from up North or should I say further north you may require them but we had an entire other family that stayed there with us and they took the upstairs, they are from North Dakota and did use the air conditioners and did not have any complaints about the sound. The upstairs has two bedrooms and a sitting area which makes it perfect for multiple families or families with children they can go upstairs and play games while the adults are downstairs.

We had a nice time at “Grandma’s House in the Woods”. It was quiet and peaceful. Perfect for an evening of relaxing after a long day of side by side riding through the hills. The house was extremely clean and the kitchen was well stocked with all the items to cook and eat meals. Laundry room was available to use. The host was very courteous and helpful and always responded timely to our texts. We highly recommend it.

This is an amazing property close to several things within the Custer area while still feeling out of town. It was nice to turn into the secluded area after a busy day. Seeing deer early in the morning from the kitchen and porch was also very exciting. The host was helpful, friendly, and easy to communicate with. Even prior to travel they were reaching out to ensure our stay was the best it could be. The property matched its description and beat our expectations. The washer and dryer worked well. The kitchen was clean, setup nicely , and we enjoyed the farm fresh eggs in the fridge waiting for us. The three sleeping areas upstairs with a bedroom on the main level worked well for our stay. We also enjoyed being able to bring our dog with on our trip. We had a wonderful time and would book again without hesitation.
