Our son got married at Sylvan Lake on 8.18.2023 and we wanted a place to hang out and have some fun in the area before the wedding. This cabin was in a great location (close enough but with a secluded feel), gave us plenty of space for the 8 adults we had (family and friends), and fun items to keep everyone busy (bags, fire pit, nice large table for nightly card games). The host, Diane, was very responsive and accommodating - helped make our wedding trip perfect! Would definitely recommend.

We are a group of four couples, who get together once a year for a weeks vacation. This year we chose Custer and the South Dakota Black Hills area. The cabin was great nice and roomy had lots of anemones and the beds were very comfortable. We felt like we were right at home and enjoyed Ourselves immensely

Our family got together in the Black Hills and found this property to be well situated to the many activities and sites we wanted to see. It had the rooms and amenities we needed to facilitate our stay. The owner was also very responsive to any requests we had during our stay.

We recently stayed at the Evergreen Lodge. We were celebrating my parents 50th wedding anniversary. We needed a lot of room.and space for everyone and this place didn't disappoint. The home was beautiful and the property was great. We had a nice view. It was close to so many places. Diane was fabulous and she really went out of her way to make sure our stay was great. I can't recommend this place enough. It was fabulous. We can't wait to go back.

Great home ideal location to Custer state park, mt Rushmore, crazy horse, wind caves National park.

Loved our stay at the Evergreen Lodge! The location made for a perfect week and the cabin was nice and roomy. We enjoyed the wildlife around;every morning we saw deer right in front. Communication with the host was excellent & her recommendations of places to visit did not disappoint. Great vacation spot!

We spent 5 nights at this wonderful property. Everything was as-advertised. Communication was great. There were 13 people, ranging from 16 to 100, plus another 4 day visitors. There was plenty of room for everyone, with two separate couch locations upstairs and another downstairs. The highlight was probably when we had a group on the very large balcony overlooking the other group playing the provided cornhole and sitting on the Adirondack chairs at the firepit. Great times! The view over the meadow is so relaxing. We had no problems cooking for this large group. The fridge in the garage came in handy for larger items. Twin washers and dryers were also a plus. This was our third time staying in large houses near Crazy Horse, and the family commented a few times that they liked this house the best. Do be advised that the main living area is upstairs. It was a bit of work for our 100-year-old, but she got it done. On a side note, be sure to visit Dave's Rock Shop in town, as it's very affordable and fun to look around.

Great property and great owner. Everyone loved the Evergreen Lodge. Diane was very accommodating and kept us informed of the weather issues that we’re heading our way. It was a very enjoyable stay in spite of the snow storms.

This property is unique in respect to having three separate “hang out” areas - basically 3 living rooms with The Best couches! Add in 4 bathrooms and ample bedrooms - it’s a very nice space for a larger group. The kitchen was too small for us, but anytime besides the winter that would be remedied by the outside dining area. The host was especially easy to communicate with! Highly recommend!

We stayed in November when it snowed. The house is very warm and comfortable. We filled every bedroom with family and there was plenty of room. The owners were very transparent and wanted us to know about any possible discomforts based on our numbers. That was very appreciated. I would return without hesitation. Thank you.

We had a great time and totally enjoyed the house. The house is beautiful and well appointed. The owner Diane was a pleasure to deal with. We will definitely book another stay. House is in a great location to see all the sights in the area.

My husband and I and 4 other couples rented Evergreen Lodge for a week while visiting the Black Hills. The location was perfect for everywhere we wanted to go and to get back to at the end of the day. It was only 2 miles from the town of Custer. The property is a absolutely beautiful. The house is not new but it was such a pleasant experience. We spent every evening around the large dining room table because the home was so cozy. The owner/manager Diane was easily accessible by email and answered all my questions and was so accommodating. I would highly recommend this beautiful lodging for a large group when traveling to the Black Hills.

Great location, quiet and clean

We all loved this house. The layout made it easy for our large group to sprawl when needed. The location was perfect for all of the things we wanted to see. I would highly recommend it.

Loved the location and the meadow in front of the house. Nice that town of Custer was only minutes away. Great central location for visiting different places in the area. We hiked Badlands, Cathedral Spires/Harney Peak Fire Lookout, Devils Tower and Sunday Gulch ... all spectacular.

We loved our stay at Evergreen Lodge this week. The owner was awesome before we even arrived and quick to answer questions before/during our stay. She was even able to connect us with a mechanic when we had issues! The cabin was spacious and well laid out for our large group (extended family unit including grandparents, 3 kids/spouses, grandkids ages 10-23). There was space for us to be together as well as spread out when we needed a little space. The cabin had so many things above and beyond what was expected - we even had a smores basket kit which was highlight. The outdoor space and view was amazing and we spent just as much time outside as we did inside. The location is perfect - close to caves, Mt Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Keystone, Custer State Park. We all loved our time there and would definitely stay again if we were to return to this area for another vacation.

Our family of eleven has rented many different houses for summer vacations. Evergreen lives up to its billing in all respects. It is clean, modern and spacious. Perfect location to visit the many places of interest in this area of South Dakota.

Excellent property for a group of families or friends. Close to attractions, groceries, gas.

Cabin was perfect-Everything you need for a family vacation. We were very happy with our stay

Amazing Log Cabin and Location but the inside is worn out and needs TLC and the cleaning crew needs to keep it cleaner at check in. Has Holes in the ceiling and Bugs everywhere. We Killed probably 25+ bugs/flies and its freaking winter time.

The kitchen/dining area needs to be bigger for this cabin to work better with bigger groups. Other than that - the cabin was clean, the beds were nice, and the furniture was very comfortable. Diane is very responsive if you have questions after booking or during your stay.

The house looks great but the management is poor! Not as clean as we think.

Perfect location. Very spacious and clean home. Plenty of room to roam. Near park and town , Rushmore, Crazy Horse etc. great amenities

We were a party of 11 and the house was just the perfect set up! We definitely recommend this property. The kids especially enjoyed the deer!!

Diane was easy to work with and flexible with our large group. She kept us well informed of everything with the property. The property was nice and cozy and right outside of town; not too far to grab some last minute items. I’m glad we decided to go with Evergreen vs other cabins and resorts. The only negative thing I’d say is when we got there, there were some dirty utensils but that was easily fixed by just washing them. Nothing too major that we couldn’t handle to make it a bad stay. I would stay here again if I come back to South Dakota.
