Reviews of #2 Trout Cabin at Ponderosa Place highlight a clean, cozy base in Custer with a convenient, quiet location for visiting Custer State Park, Mount Rushmore, and Crazy Horse, often described as a good fit for couples.
Guests consistently note very clean interiors and well stocked kitchens, plus handy touches like a patio, grill, and fire pit. Cabins are small and best for two; some mention thin walls, loud portable AC units, weak lighting, and a small fridge, while beds are generally comfortable. Hosts are described as responsive and helpful, though one review found check in communication confusing. Overall, expect a tidy, compact cabin in a convenient spot.

We loved our weeklong stay at Ponderosa Place, so much so that we've already rebooked for next year. This is an ideal location - close enough to walk to downtown restaurants but far enough away for a quiet night's rest. (Bonus: no light pollution in this quiet neighborhood - the stars are brilliant at night!) Our cabin was quite comfortable and well appointed. I appreciated that there was a hair blowdryer in the bathroom. My husband and I both appreciated the coffeemaker and Folgers coffee each morning. We enjoyed sitting on the deck in the sunshine. We locked up our bikes to the 'hitching post' out front - quite convenient. Crystal is a gem! She helped us check in early and explore other cabin options for next year's stay. This is a five star stay; you won't find a better place in Custer.

We really enjoyed our three nights in the trout cabin. Everything was very clean, the grocery store was convenient to access, we loved the bed, the patio was great, and having cable was a nice touch these days when typically it's just the Roku. We met lovely neighbors next door and enjoyed talking with them outside around the fire. Custer was a great central location! I'd stay here again and recommend it to others!

We enjoyed our stay in Custer. The cabin was close to town and we enjoyed sitting outside in the patio. We met people at the fire pit from the other cabins on the property. The cabin was clean and cozy and we liked all the amenities . Especially the 3 ring binder with recommendations for restaurants. Custer was the best place to eat, the restaurants served delicious food in a laid back atmosphere . We would definitely stay there again on the next road trip.

The cabin had more amenities than we needed. The bed and futon were very comfortable. The kitchen was clean and everything worked well! The location was within easy walking distance of downtown and driving distance of all the places we wanted to visit like Custer State Park and Black Elk Peak. There was a grocery store practically in the back yard.

We came for a few days to enjoy this part of the Black Hills and lodging at Ponderosa Place was perfect for our needs! Our cabin was very cozy for the 2 of us with our grandson. It was well stocked to meet any of our needs, and is located such a short distance from Main street in Custer, yet still set within a quiet corner of town. We were just minutes away from Mount Rushmore, the Crazy Horse monument, the Needles highway and Custer State Park! What more can you ask for? We loved it!

Kitchen had everything needed and a few extras but lighting was weak there and in living space. Futon couch could be more comfortable. Bedroom was great with lots of room and storage. Outside was really nice with table and comfortable chairs and umbrella. Parking was very convenient. Loved location close to restaurants and shops but residential. Had three young deer in yard one evening.

Nice property but below advertised expectations. And way below quality for price paid. Positives: Very clean. Comfortable. Owners easy to contact and helpful. Very quiet. Great location. Negatives; Check in procedure difficult and poorly communicated. Room had very poor lighting and not very good heating and air. Refrigerator very small. Couch/futon very uncomfortable. Honestly is good room but over priced. If you can get this at the right price i would recommend.

We loved our weeklong stay at Ponderosa Place, so much so that we've already rebooked for next year. This is an ideal location - close enough to walk to downtown restaurants but far enough away for a quiet night's rest. (Bonus: no light pollution in this quiet neighborhood - the stars are brilliant at night!) Our cabin was quite comfortable and well appointed. I appreciated that there was a hair blowdryer in the bathroom. My husband and I both appreciated the coffeemaker and Folgers coffee each morning. We enjoyed sitting on the deck in the sunshine. We locked up our bikes to the 'hitching post' out front - quite convenient. Crystal is a gem! She helped us check in early and explore other cabin options for next year's stay. This is a five star stay; you won't find a better place in Custer.

The cabin at Ponderosa Place was perfectly situated to have an amazing vacation experience. Situated close to Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Custer State Park and Wind Cave National Park, the cabin was perfect to explore the area. Badlands National Park is an hour and a half away and I would recommend the drive and stop at Wall Drug store to anyone going to South Dakota. This vacation was my favorite that I have had in the continental US. I can’t recommend this cabin or the city of Custer more. We had a great time and I hope to revisit one day!

We came for a few days to enjoy this part of the Black Hills and lodging at Ponderosa Place was perfect for our needs! Our cabin was very cozy for the 2 of us with our grandson. It was well stocked to meet any of our needs, and is located such a short distance from Main street in Custer, yet still set within a quiet corner of town. We were just minutes away from Mount Rushmore, the Crazy Horse monument, the Needles highway and Custer State Park! What more can you ask for? We loved it!

This little cabin was great for my Daugther and I for a school trip. It’s very close to custard park-a nice central location. Clean, welcoming and well supplied. The little treats left for us by the host were thoughtful and appreciated. Thank you!

Clean and comfortable. Was a perfect spot to enjoy visiting Mt. Rushmore, the Crazy Horse monument, Custer State Park, and the Badlands.
