"Welcome to blackhillsrentals.com"

John & Pat
Hello and welcome to our collection of delightful vacation home rentals!
This grouping
of private family mountain residences is unique to the Black Hills, if
not the Nation. Most are
full sized, year round homes and we have some smaller fully equipped
cabins for smaller families.
Each home or cabin has it's own lot that range
from almost one to six acres!
We take immense pride in these properties (and it shows). You'll see.
But, for us to continue to make
them available for family vacations, we need your help.
These properties may not suit some people or groups. If you are
looking for a "party place", or
have adults or children in your group that are destructive or hard to
manage -
then these properties are definitely not for you.
NO NON-REGISTERED VISITORS OR VEHICLES
ARE PERMITTED.
Our other guests, and our many return guests, come here not just for
the privilege of staying in one of our
mountain homes...they come for
the peace, solitude, and relaxation that our homes and the surrounding
forest and mountains offer.
While at our homes you can observe deer, turkey, endless variety of
birds, fox, coyote, wood chucks, squirrels, chipmunks, whistle pigs, and more.
This is why our homes are a "quiet zone".
We have pledged to our past guests that we will maintain these
properties in the same condition as they found during their last visit.
That means that all guests must love, cherish and protect these homes as
much as we do (and we do).
Our rules do not restrict a normal family vacation...they enhance and
expand your family vacation experience.
We have been proudly serving the vacationing public since 1994, and we hope you are able to become part of our growing group of very
loyal guests.
Your hosts,
John and Patricia

Introducing the...
The Gold Star!
A very special place in the Black
Hills where vacationing families are the only residents -
It is located a few miles outside of
Custer on a gravel road. Might be a little tough to find at first, but we
like it that way! (You will too!)
The Gold Star! consists of a
private group of solid log homes that await you at the end of a turn or two and
just over a small hill and after you turn right where you should have turned
left right where we stacked the three rocks next to the pine tree with a crooked
branch☺!
These homes are located at the end of a dead end road in the woods and have
Forest Service wilderness on two sides. They are in a secluded and
forested location. There is no through traffic other than deer. All
homes are reserved exclusively for our guests. Each
home sits on a one or two acre + parcel
of Black Hills Forest! Each home is a private residence with it's own
driveway.
The Gold Star!
is reserved for registered guests only and the vehicles shown on the
contract-
NO NON-REGISTERED VISITORS OR VEHICLES ARE
PERMITTED.
(We think that you will want to keep
The Gold Star! a
secret, anyway!)
If you want to reserve one of the homes in
The Gold Star!
you should
book it well in advance.
Yes, we are quite protective of these
(and all of our) properties...and you'll understand why...
when you spend your vacation at any of our homes at the...
The Gold Star!
shines like no other!
The following
properties are located in
The Gold Star!
(Just
outside of Custer,SD)
Renegade!
you won't wanna leave!

"...from this place you can hear the
earth speak"
Rare cedar log cabin. 1 bedroom, 1 bath, can sleep 4. Full kitchen.
A true frontier location that is only 25' from the USFS wilderness.
Don't worry, there are plenty of wide open spaces around the
Renegade!
Large spruce logs were used to build this authentic, frontier log cabin.
It is delightfully warm and cozy.
It is difficult to describe...but it gives you an unusual kind
of...secure... feeling. It takes you back to a simpler time...
back when justice was truly swift and dealt by the sound of metal
clearing leather.
Sleeps a family of four (2 adults & 2 buckaroos).
A premium quality, queen bed in the bedroom. Bedroom has it's own
access door to the bathroom.
Futon (full size with inner-spring mattress) in living room. Fully
equipped kitchen with dishwasher.
12'x20' deck faces USFS wilderness that is just a few steps away.
Another 8'x8' deck faces to the east at the entrance
door - a great place for your morning cup of coffee.
This is a memorable location for special occasions, such as Honeymoons
& Anniversaries!

by yourself...
sometimes with others...
and sometimes when being right...
is wrong."

End of the road
privacy. Heck, this is
the end of the road! The 2+ acre lot borders hundreds of thousands
of acres of National Forest Service wilderness. It is only

to the area attractions and the grub store. We are pleased to have
this classic, log home in our vacation home lineup. 3 bedrooms, 2
bathrooms, full Laundry (new HE washing machine in 2016). Living room
with large rock fireplace, large family area on lower level, delightful

feeling that this home offers is difficult to describe. Sony 53"
big screen TV home theater in one side of the family room...a pool
table in the other.
After your week vacation ends and you're moving down the driveway
on your trip home...you'll look back knowing a single week simply isn't
enough. Don't worry, it will patiently await till your next visit.

El
Dorado Ranch!

A proud historic addition to our vacation homes.
4 bedroom, 2 bath, full laundry, two level ranch style home,
accommodating up to 12 people. Knotty pine, tongue and groove
interior finish with lots of big windows letting in lots of sunshine! This is one of
the most desired scenic properties in Custer County, if not the entire
Black Hills area. A huge 5+ acre lot! The large grassland
pasture of this ranch is natural. It is exactly the way it
was when Custer and his troops walked through and camped in this same
field. The photo shows house on right. Calamity Peak (in the
background) is a mountain that towers above the property.
It's a large Western ranch style house with a huge, solid rock
mountain in its back yard! At the base of the mountain and
running the length of the property is French Creek. Excellent
fishing and gold panning is only a short drive away. This property
is significant, historically, during Custer's expedition in 1876.
Photos from 1876 show this location and "blue coats" standing where this
home is located. Situated about 3 miles East of Custer on Hwy 16,
just outside of Custer State Park. An extremely historical
country setting.
Mickelson Trail is across roadway.
It is the largest lot in our
collection...and yes, it is a small ranch.
As our guest you can walk through this
field...and dream.
