Wonderful
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
Place was clean and well organized - only complaint was that the address on the website did not match the address for the actual location and we ended up parking at someone else’s resort, it was fine and they redirected us and said it happens all the time.
My favorite places to stay in the Southern/Central Hills. The cabins are cozy, quiet, and always clean. This time I brought my side by side, and parked my trailer down below. Never worried about its safety.
This resort was not what I expected I read the reviews before I booked but let me tell you it’s not all what they say first the coffee pot was broken second the fitted sheet kept coming off so I was sleeping on plastic third the shower is very small and no water pressure fourth the walls are so thin you can hear everything from the cabin next door and the people next to us kept talking so we couldn’t sleep or get rest if you want peace and quiet do not rent those cabins pay a little extra and stay in a nice hotel even if you have to travel to get to Mount Rushmore
Nice cabin feel. Quiet, very near Mt Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Black Hills. Clean and spacious. Outside picnic table on porch was nice for breakfast and coffee in wooded area. Very relaxing.
It was so nice getting away from the usual hotel experience. A quaint cabin in a wooded area. We sat out on the deck and enjoyed some conversation while listening to the birds chirp. We highly recommend.

Little cabin was clean and tidy. Conveniently located.
Fast and easy check-in, staff was very nice, cabin was very clean and comfortable. Would recommend this place to anyone! We hope to stay there again if we make it back to that area!
The room was very clean and had a beautiful deck with table and chairs. I loved the fact that it was like camping with the nature of it all without the fuss. The only reason I gave it a 4 was because of the noise of the shower next door. We got a cabin that was attached to another and when they took a shower the next morning it was really loud.
