Due to our late arrival, spoke with Barb who left us instructions and how to get in. Enjoyed the personal touch and concern. It definitely is a respite stop while heading off to experience this part of the west.

The property appeared small and rustic at first sight but owners are on property and also own a small cafe next door. Extremely friendly and helpful and good and fairly priced food next door. I was a solo traveler on a motorcycle and very pleased with the accommodations. I will stay there again and recommend to friends.

This is a mom and pop operation run by a couple of hard-working South Dakotans who give it their all. It’s humble but very very clean, and if you’re thirsty, there is a small bar steps from your door. Because this is family run, you should give a call before booking if you’ll arrive past about 9:30 p.m. The same folks to check you in will be up with the dawn the next morning, so they cannot accommodate late arrivals; check with them first, and be aware that they’re in the central time zone, which may be important if you’re coming from the west. My thanks for a good stay!

We will always stop here.

Let’s talk about it. We rolled in here as 3 idiots driving from Pittsburgh to Sturgis and back to Pittsburgh and we had such a good time here that we went out of our way to stay here twice. This is the best dive bar / hotel we each have ever stayed at, we were so welcomed at this place and the locals were so much fun to hang with. This place is fantastic. We will all be back and can’t wait to see everybody.
