Stayed Sep 5, 2025Absolutely hidden gem in America if you want to stay where Custer and his officers camped on their 1874 patrol of the Black hills, this is the spectacular place for you. Catch a fish. Walk the property. Enjoy the sunrise and sit by the fire. Five star accommodations and hosts.

Stayed Aug 14, 2025We had an amazing stay at Custer Camp! We had car trouble just after passing through Rapid and our hosts treated us like family giving us a ride to the auto shop and offering help with anything we needed! Our kids kept asking if they were our family which should give you a good idea of their wonderful hospitality! We will definitely be back! Thank you!!

Stayed Jul 13, 2025My kids and I had a wonderful stay here. The hosts are incredibly hospitable and responsive. If anything was missing they brought it to the unit faster than I would have expected. The location is secluded which is great if you want to get off the grid. My boys really enjoyed the fishing pond - I did not see them much while we were there. Plenty of parking and space in the unit. The kitchen has all the utensils and cooking gear you need. Cell phone reception is very poor in the Black Hills so be ready for that.

Stayed Jun 25, 2025Our family stayed here for 4 nights and explored the Black Hills. The owners are very friendly and helpful. I would recommend this rental to anyone looking in the area! The trout pond was great for the kids! As stated in the listing, this is only the lower half of the house, as the owners live here full time. We had zero issues with the owners on site while we were there, it was actually nice getting insight from them!

Stayed May 31, 2025If there were a hall of fame for VRBO hosts, Margaret and Derito would be first ballot unanimously elected members. Margaret made us a delicious dessert while Derito cleaned, brined, and smoked us a delicious rainbow trout from their beautiful pond. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the beauty of our surroundings, but the hosts made this the best experience ever. If you’re planning a stay anywhere near Vanocker canyon this is a great place to spend your vacation.

Stayed Feb 14, 2025Our stay was fantastic! My wife and I loved everything about this place. The location has amazing views and wildlife that make you feel so far off the beaten path. The house was comfy and easy to fit right home. What truly made this experience was our hosts. Margret and her husband Derito were so sweet and kind. They checked in on us, made us pumpkin cake, and were truly so kind. It was clear they take so much pride in their space and making guests feel welcome. I will absolutely be visiting again!

Stayed Oct 17, 2024This property is amazing. The home itself is very cozy and has everything you need for your stay. The surrounding area is very peaceful and beautiful. We had a great time fishing in the pond and spending time with the residents (both animals and people). We felt like family while we were there. Hopefully we can return soon!

Stayed Aug 15, 2024Words cannot describe how much we enjoyed our stay, between the hot tub, pool table, and fishing pond, our kids were in heaven! The kitchen space made it a breeze to cook meals, and the laundry facilities allowed me to return home without any laundry to do. Dorito cooked us a trout one of my daughters caught from the pond, and Margarets homemade brownies lasted a matter of hours. A central location to all the 'must-sees' of South Dakota, this spot is a haven-like retreat. Thank you for your hospitality Margaret and Dorito, we are planning a return trip next year to visit spots we didn't have time for!

Stayed Jul 12, 2024Do yourself a favor and stay at this home away from home! Margaret and Derito create the perfect South Dakota vacation experience for you- they are the perfect hosts. They provide a lot of extras- wine on arrival, fresh baked brownies and even preparing trout that we caught in their pond! It is truly a little slice of paradise in the Black Hills and also has a bit of history tied in with General Custer stationing his men on their property during a short time leading up to the battle of the Little Bighorn. We hope to make it back to Nemo someday!

Stayed Jun 23, 2024Our stay was perfect. The hosts are wonderful people and gave us a few tips on places to go with our little girls. We absolutely loved the place. Extremely clean accommodations, beautiful property, great hot tub, and an absolutely amazing pond to fish and relax by. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and our 4 girls (0-10) loved it.

Stayed Jun 15, 2024We were very impressed with the private, serene setting where we felt like we were in the wilderness with all the comforts of home. Hosts were very friendly, hospitable and accommodating! Hot tub while watching deer walk through the woods and meadow was a big treat. Definitely recommend this location and will definitely stay here again if we vacation in the black hills again!
