What guests think
Across the reviews, #4 Elk Cabin at Ponderosa Place is praised for very clean, comfortable cabins and a walkable location near downtown Custer and attractions, plus family friendly touches like outdoor seating, grills, a fire pit, and a swingset.
Guests highlight friendly, responsive hosts and easy check-in and communication. Rooms are cozy with rustic decor and practical amenities, though a few note thin walls, a very small shower, and an uncomfortable sofa bed or soft mattress. Overall, expect a simple, well kept base that's convenient for exploring the Black Hills.
