Property was very clean and maintained. The cabin was cozy and perfect for myself and teenager. Staff was friendly and helpful. Across the street is a restaurant that was playing live music, frankly I would not have known except the hotel staff shared that with me. The restaurant appeared closed by 10pm.

The staff was wonderful. Our rooms were very small. We had 4 adults in a 2 bed room and we could hardly move around with all our luggage. A hotel room has way more room. The beds were not very comfortable. Otherwise, everything else was great.

good location and price

Location and price was great. Old style motel. Great to have a kitchen in room, amenities were very limited as far as kitchen supplies. Bed was uncomfortable for me, defiantly need new mattresses. Comp breakfast was toast fruit, cereal and coffee.

Great little motel south of Rapid City. It’s just a quick drive to Rushmore and just a little further to Custer. Owners are very friendly and accommodating. The community gas grill and covered front porch with tables allowed us to save money and eat better by making our own meals. Would definitely stay here again.

Great place to stay! We would 100% stay here again if we come back this way. We were in the lodge part. The rooms were clean and appeared to be recently updated. I never once heard our neighbors while we were in our rooms. There were fire pits and grills to use. The only downside of the lodge is that it’s up the hill from the main building. Not a huge deal though! Do yourself a favor and book this place!!

Pros: it was a convenient location. Decent priced. Was was decently comfy. Cons: there are no vending machines or ice machines at the golden nugget lodge. You have to get in car and drive down road to the other building. Snacks in the main area were 2 months expired which the two gentlemen working didn’t seem to think that was an issue. No ice maker or ice trays in freezer in room. We didn’t have hot water one night. Was told probably have to wait until morning to have it. Feet were dirty from walking on the floor. Food crumbs in fridge, kitchen floor and silverware drawer. The mold and dirt around the bathroom tub knob and kitchen sink drain were disgusting. I did photos graph those. No elevator, kids running up and down deck and you can hear the people in rooms beside you walking around their room. Made coffee one morning, only half pot worth and it took 23 minutes to brew and then it looked like tinted water. Was absolutely horrible/ the decanter was also filthy. Bare necessities for kitchen so pack stuff for that. I became injured the day we left for vacation so when we got to this establishment and realized there was no elevator and we had to get our 50lb suitcase up the steps I knew it was going to be an issue. I further injured myself doing this but survived . Because of this I knew we had to check out a day early as I wouldn’t be able to drive 8 hours to our next step and I would have to split it up. When I asked the staff regarding this I was told.who cares

Very small room but beds were comfy and room was decorated super cute. Bathroom was a clean and shower worked good. Room was clean and the air conditioner worked great. The lobby was great with a huge couch in front of a fire. You could play games, watch tv and/or listen to music. Very cozy. Do NOT try to check in early. We were 30 minutes early after driving 7 hours and they told us to come back at 3:00 or we could go around back and let the kids play at the very little splash pad or the jungle gym. Other than that it was perfect for a night or two.
