About Matt Brown and Joy Falkenburg
Dr. Joy Falkenburg and her husband Matt Brown have lived in the Black Hills since 1999. They purchased the Little Red Inn in 2013 and opened it for use as a vacation home in 2014. They live next to Custer State Park with their family and enjoy the beauty and serenity of the Black Hills and all it has to offer all year long.

Why Matt Brown and Joy Falkenburg chose Black Hills
We live just down the road from the Little Red Inn. It had been for sale and every time we drove by we thought about buying it and opening it up for vacationers to enjoy when they stayed in the Black Hills. It is in a beautiful location and is close enough to both Custer and Custer State Park to be the perfect spot for people who are visiting the Hills. It also has a fenced in pasture for horses in case travelers are here with their horses to enjoy the Hills. The granite outcroppings east of Custer and Calamity Peak are just across the road from the Little Red Inn. Calamity Peak is one of the most photographed granite peaks in the Hills.
What makes this cottage unique
Our motto is that you can 'hold your horses here'. If you are in the Black Hills to ride, bring your horses with you and leave them in our spacious pasture while you relax at the Little Red Inn. We also have a fire pit so you and the family or friends (or both!) can roast s'mores under the beautiful night sky of Custer.
Guestbook comments from the owner
We came to visit family and stayed with our family and her sister and her family. It worked out wonderful. We were able to have time for the kids to nap and we were able to eat at the house and still close enough to Custer to enjoy it as well. Lots of room inside and outside. The kids could safely play and the temps were perfect. I would come back here with my family again.

Wonderful!

Excellent rental!
We had the pleasure of staying at this location during our visit to South Dakota! It was conveniently located in a wonderful, quiet, area that is close to town! The house was well stocked and had more than everything we could have possibly needed! This was one of the best homes that we have rented through HomeAway throughout all of our years of renting for vacation! We would definitely recommend this location for your visit!
Love the Little Red Cabin
We loved our stay at the Little Red Cabin! It was very quite and relaxing. My son really enjoyed the cow, (whom he named Buddy), that walked inside a fence along side the property. We would highly recommend The Little Red Cabin.
Custer Cabin
Our family enjoyed our stay in Custer. The cabin was very comfortable with a large yard and fire pit. It was in a great central location for all of our planned destinations.
Perfect "BaseCamp" for a Black Hills Vacation
Great place exactly as advertised in Custer! We had 2 families and the layout was perfect and the house had everything we needed for our stay. From the house it is easy to access Mt. Rushmore, Wildlife Loop Road and even close enough to make a DayTrip to the Badlands and Wall Drug. It was perfect as "Base Camp" as we explored the area.
The Falkenburgs were attentive and live in the area. They were great from initial booking thru our stay. Would definitely stay here again!
Awesome country home.
Loved the location, and the setting. There were some logging trucks going in and out of the area every day that caused noise and a lot of dust. Certainly not the owners fault. We really enjoyed our time in the area. Nice comfortable home.
Comfortable cottage close to Custer and the attractions of the Black Hills
Wonderful cottage with everything you might need. Very clean, comfortable, and easily accommodated our family of five adults and three kids. The wildlife was enchanting from deer,turkey, baby birds and baby squirrel. There was a beautiful calf next to the yard that we all loved to pet. The yard was huge for playing in the day and campfires at night. Very private in the country. Close to all attractions and the town of Custer. Close to beautiful lakes for fishing. A wonderful place and helped to create a great family vacation. We will definitely return.
Map
Ideally located three miles from Custer and two miles from Custer State Park, we are centrally located to all your Black Hills activities, including Wind Cave, the Needles Highway, Mt. Rushmore, Sylvan Lake, Crazy Horse, Hill City, Keystone, Custer State Park, the Mickelson Trail, Custer, Rapid City and Iron Mt. Road. Interested in horseback riding? The Little Red Inn has fenced pasture available so you can 'hold your horses here.' We are close to Iron Creek horse camp, a premiere horse riding trail system.
For hunters, wildlife enthusiasts, and fishermen, opportunities abound! You are likely to see whitetail deer, wild turkey, elk, coyotes, and the occasional mountain lion on or around the property. Stockade and Bismark Lake are just over the hill and provide opportunity for fly and traditional line fishing for trout, perch, crappie, bass, northern, and sunfish. Buffalo also roam just minutes away in Custer State Park.
