Located just two miles outside of Custer city limits, you will be enveloped in breathtaking views at this unique-luxury, log cabin home. Distinctive fairy garden landscape will entice you to never want to leave; but if you choose to venture out, you are only 3 mi. to Custer State Park, 6 mi. to Sylvan Lake, 7 mi. to Crazy Horse monument, 21 mi. to Mt. Rushmore and 36 mi. to Reptile Gardens.

Lofted, Master suite provides tub, steam shower and gas fireplace. comfort galore with kingaspen log bed. Now features an adjustable, Tempurpedic bed with dual controls. Second bedroom has king pine log bed, tv and shares a Jack & Jill bathroom with third Queen bedroom. Fourth bedroom is a twin/over full log bunk and kid friendly. All mattresses are new, luxury comfort. Half-bath is located on main floor, off a fully equipped kitchen with coffee hutch for your convenience.
Somehow the VRBO program has added an amenity of Hot tub to our description somewhere, which is not true. We have never had a hot tub and want guests to clearly understand that. We are working with VRBO to correct that mistake and evidently, that is more difficult than expected!
Guests are welcome to use pantry items, spice cupboards and frig condiments.

Note: we now have AC and furnace for your comfort! Traditionally, log homes are not built with either and have always been heated with electric cove heaters.* We ask guests to not use a cove heater at any time. We have taped over the cove heaters to help guests remember not to use them. Another advantage to living in the Black Hills: very low humidity and typically, the evenings cool off to chilly. We recommend bringing cozy hoodies.

Laundry, WiFi, land line and 4G cell reception, which is an important detail in the Black Hills. Direct TV service provides movie channels for rainy days. Chimnaya and wood supply on main deck. Our wifi is very strong and provides opportunity for catching up on work. Pets are not welcome, but children certainly are!

Our Grill is on cement deck, (there are 5 decks, each with a gorgeous view!) Beautiful, custom built blue-stained pine dining table sits in front of the wood fireplace with a grand view of the Black Elk Wilderness.

RV bay (18'x24') is available to protect your motorcycles or campers. An attached two car garage provides convenience for everyone.
When making a reservation request, please include your phone number, home address and a little note about yourself. We like to get to know our guests! Be especially careful to provide a phone number that receives text. We also recommend that two people in your party keep Robin's cell phone number handy. That way when one phone gets locked inside the cabin, you still have a way to contact us and get the codes again!

We are very responsive to communicate with guests. If you have any questions or concerns, please let us know immediately. Robin responds promptly and wants to do everything possible to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Please don't wait until you are checking out to let us know that you have a problem.

    We were very happy with our stay at Tanglewood Estate. The home was inviting with it's cabin design and thoughtful decor. The beds were comfy and there were plenty of snuggling blankets available. There were a couple rainy days during our trip and garage access for a double cab truck was much appreciated. We saw wildlife every day we were there (squirrels, turkey, deer). My grandson even named one of the deer he kept seeing.Sparky. We spent a lot of time just roaming the property and walking the small paths aroud the home looking at the small treasures the home owners placed along the paths. This home is a great central location to come back to after visiting the surrounding adventures. We would definitely stay again.

    Peaceful location, but close to everything. Big dinning room windows looking through pines. So quiet and relaxing. We loved hiking in Custer park and seeing thebison up close. Ive been there 4 times and it never gets old.

    This house worked great for a group of friends of traveling together -- roomy, clean, tons of amenities, and with many beautiful spaces (both indoors and outdoors) to gather together. The views are stunning, and the garden is charming. The host was very responsive, providing recommendations and clear instructions before we arrived.

    Property exceeded every expectation we had of the vacation home . The cleanliness was exceptional, the location was extremely rural but within a five minute drive to Custer, communication with our host was efficient. Overall it was a great place to stay.

    Very cozy cabin. Nicely decorated inside and out. Unique gardens surrounding home created pleasant ambience. Great location. Less than 10 minutes from Main Street Custer but secluded on gravel road. Very quiet and peaceful. Beds and main room furniture were comfortable. Beautiful views from the large windowed dining area. Great deck area for viewing sunsets and star gazing. N ice selection of condiments and little conveniences. All bedrooms are on the second level with about 15 steps for those that are interested. One of the best vacation homes we have stayed at.

    This home was amazing! Beautiful views of surrounding woods full of deer. Very spacious rooms with comfortable seating, cozy beds, and decks. Well supplied kitchen for easy meal preparation and a dining area that served as a spacious game table as well. Having a washer and dryer was a lifesaver. Cabin was convenient to Custer State Park, Crazy Horse, Wind Cave, and a short drive to Needles Hwy, and Mt Rushmore. Grandkids loved it here!

    If possible, this excellent property was BETTER than advertised. Beautiful, huge log home, immaculate, incredible solitary-woodsy feel. Furnished very comfortably, and has up-to-date appliances, etc. Access to owner was immediate if questions were needed by us. It had a very homey feel. We hated to leave.
