About this property
A remote cabin surrounded by Pine, Birch and Aspen trees, five miles to Deadwood
One mile of gravel driveway leads to The Rustic Cabin; this driveway can be rough at times and is privately maintained. The cabin is situated on 30 private acres surrounded on two sides by the Black Hills Forest Service. There are hiking trails leading into the woods directly from the cabin and if you are lucky and walk quietly you will see deer, jack rabbits, turkey and possibly elk depending on the time of year. Recently we have had black bear sightings in the hills, so be aware if out on a hike.
Take a break from technology as there is No WIFI and limited cell service. Instead in the evenings enjoy star gazing from the porch or gazebo. Or take a short drive to the historic gambling town of Deadwood five miles north on Hwy 385.
Inside, you'll find a fully equipped kitchen with a stove, oven, dorm size refrigerator, beverage refrigerator, coffee maker, kettle, toaster and a grill on the covered front porch, allowing you to easily prepare delicious meals. Relax in the living room and unwind with the Bose wave radio or a movie on the DVD player. There is a view of the pond and gazebo from the covered front porch of the cabin. During the dry months of July & August the pond is very low as it fluctuates due to the water table.
Because the nighttime temperature range in the mid 50’s to 70’s we do not offer air conditioning.
There is trailer parking for your ATV, side x side or motorcycle trailer. Just go past the driveway that leads to the cabin then straight ahead towards the gazebo to park your trailer.
The Black Hills motorized trail system can be accessed at the Steel Wheel Gas and Convenience store located 1 mile south from the cabin on Hwy 385. A permit is needed to use the Forest Service trail system. Permits are available for purchase at Steel Wheel. As of July 2024, Forest Service closed trail 538.1G and trail 247.1E which were used to access the motorized trail system from the cabin.
Our home is also on the property, and you will see it first as you cross through the gate. The cabin has its own driveway access and is separated from our home by the small pond and gazebo. Our nearest neighbor is 1/2 mile away.
Bill designed and built the cabin which he finished in 2018. The cabin measures 12 × 26 with a 10 x 12 loft, a full bath, kitchen and a queen size bed in the loft (an earlier guest commented that the open stairs are steep). The living room area has a reclining couch and a comfortable recliner. The Samsung smart TV’s reception is by antenna with a few local channels.
Enjoy the convenience of being minutes from Deadwood and centrally located to all the famous attractions the Black Hills have to offer. Whether you're seeking a cozy retreat or an adventure-filled getaway, our cabin is the perfect destination.
