Except for the Western Conifer Seed Bug infestation that appears to overwhelm the staff and maintenance group, this would have been a 4 star experience. We had multiple bugs in our room each day. Even with doors and windows closed they found a way in and made our outdoor terrace overlooking Mt Rushmore useless. Staff seems to feel if you stay there you need to accept some insects. Take that into account when booking.
