"Staff were SUPER! Hotel was great, clean, perfect location for Rushmore. I would recommend this accommodation to anyone heading to the Black Hills."

ClubHouse Hotel & Suites - Rapid City

"Exceptional stay! The breakfast was incredibly rich and delicious. Our room was spotless and well-maintained. I especially loved the bedding—the linens were soft and the mattress provided the perfect amount of support for a great night's sleep. The staff were also very warm and welcoming. Highly recommend this hotel to everyone!"

Rustic Rock Haven - Horses Welcome

10/10 Excellent

"The cabin was just perfect for the 2 of us and our dog, and the location in Custer State Park was just what we were looking for, in a weekend visit. The hiking trail on the property was a great surprise and the view was spectacular. Deb, our host, was so friendly and accommodating. We had a great time exploring the black hills, including the Custer Wildlife Trail and the Needles Highway. "
