Cabins and Hunting Lodge
The Shady Rest Motel is conveniently located just three blocks from the heart of downtown Custer--nestled in the pines along the slope of a lovely forested hill. Bordered by city park on two sides, we offer easy access to play equipment for children and covered picnic areas and grills for family gatherings. All of our guests receive free passes to the Custer city pool as well as access to our own heated Hot Tub. Biking enthusiasts and those who enjoy scenic hikes will appreciate that we are just one block from the Mickelson Trail which highlights 109 miles of beautiful Black Hills scenery--not to mention downtown shopping and restaurants--all without the noise and confusion of visitor traffic.
Low rates, clean rooms, and hospitality are hallmarks of The Shady Rest legacy that date back to the 1930's. Our small cabins open for the season in early May and remain open through to the end of September. Our beautiful Hunting Lodge is open from April through November and offers great value for both large and small groups.
