Our room was clean, hot tub was nice. Location was very convenient! Beautiful area to hike in! Love the Blackhills.
This was not a cabin but a motel room- we were supposed to have a queen bed but it was a double. We had a little kitchen but did not look like the pictures on Expedia. Very expensive for a motel room, but it was the 4th of July.

Older motel was decorated like a cabin. It was clean. I didn’t open the tote that was in the room; it looked like it had sheets and towels inside. I suppose to facilitate a quick turn over.
The person at the desk when we signed in … must not have been having her best day. To put it nicely.

Great property! We loved the private cabin (#209). Everything was very clean. Also - we greatly appreciated the fact that they allowed us to shorten our stay by 2 days due to unforeseen circumstances that kept us in our previous destination for 2 extra days. They didn’t have to be flexible, but they were and they refunded us 2 nights. In all honesty, we wish we could’ve stayed the 4 nights we originally planned on staying. Loved this property!

Everything was clean. Staff was very friendly. Wish they serve breakfast earlier than 7 am. We had to travel at least 30 minutes to any of the events. Also the room could use a kuerig instead of a coffee pot. Overall the stay was good.

This was the perfect place to explore Custer, Wind Cave and mammoth site. The staff was great and our kids loved seeing all the deer and rabbits outside the room every day. We will definitely be back.

Good Enough

The hotel was good enough and close to town. The room was a little dark which didn't feel inviting to us, possible just a difference in taste. The room was clean but the beds and comforters were not very comfortable. The breakfast was not worth going to. Over all a good stay but we'll try something else next visit.

There should be ceiling lights. The place is very dark. The lamps use up the outlets, and using an extension cord is just not good. The stairs are up to the bedroom steep, unsafe at night going down to the restroom. The upstairs beds are not accessible from the interior and it’s hard to cool the loft. A Murphy bed is a good option under the stairs. The rock stairs outside and the wood stairs are not conducive to bringing in luggage. The round toilet needs changed to oval/elongated for the guys. Not a good set up for the gentlemen in my family. Would be good to have some other breakfast options, eggs protein or something. Sausage gravy is nice though. Staff is amazing and I loved seeing little Jewell at the front desk. Nice family place.

We had a wonderful stay with our family of 6! The space was perfect. Could have a little more lighting inside. Very accommodating! The closing time of 8:00 for the pool and hot tub was disappointing. It didn’t allow us much time after a day of exploring/sights and dinner.

Perfect location for all of the attractions! Cute little town with several dining options! Front desk was friendly and accommodating! Our cabin was clean and surrounded by woods which we loved! The only thing is they are not queen beds wish we would have brought a blow up mattress for a little more sleeping comfort! They may have had cots available but we never asked!

The Crazy Horse Monument visit

Arrived fine, but found the office hard to locate at first. Cabin was great. Would have been good to better understand the cabin view before I booked but the sound was distant from traffic so ok. Parking was first come, first serve, but didn't pose a problem for us. The description said it included breakfast, but it was muffins, etc -- a
to go meal only. Very clean, and we liked the deck very much for a quiet sit after sight seeing!

I thought the cabins were adorable and cozy. The pool and hot tub were clean and clear. The property was well maintained. The cabin room has a king size bed which takes up most of the space, so it is designed for people who travel with little amounts of luggage.

With a 'cabinisque' feel to our room (1 bedroom / 2 full ). It was very comfortable. We even used the pull out - and with the firm foam it was actually quite comfortable as well.
The staff was very friendly. It is close to town (walking distance if you want). Easy access to Rushmore, Jewel Cave, Custer St Park.

We enjoyed our stay at Rock Crest Lodge. It was convenient to the Custer State Park, Wind Cave, Jewel Cave and the Crazy Horse Memorial. The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. The pool was nice after a day of hiking. The lodge is close to lots of food options, but is located in a quiet part of town.

Contrary to the listing, there is no daily housekeeping. If staying multiple days, new towels can be obtained at the office and trash placed outside the door. That was fine. However, one thing we really missed was towel racks for wet towels in the bathroom.

Overall we had a nice stay.

In the online description, it said hot tub. Hot tub and pool were closed during our. They even advertised the hot tub on the outdoor sign. We stayed in a standard room with a king size bed. The room was very, very small. The cabins may be nicer, but the standard room in the motel was way overpriced. The breakfast was cereal and mini muffins, and instant coffee. That’s right, instant coffee. The staff was very nice, and the room was very clean. The heater was poorly working, and my husband had to jam towels and jackets underneath the door to keep the cold air from coming in. There is no place in the bathroom to hang wet towels.
We checked out a day early, However, I doubt we’ll get a refund. I would not recommend this property at the price we paid which was $185 a night. This was a 79.95 room at best.

Almost all staff was super friendly and personable (only one staff member was a little less enthused), but overall, just awesome people! Everything was clean and up-kept. Laundry area was available on site too, which was very nice!

If you have kids that don’t swing great, bring floaties for the pool. The entire pool depth was 4.5 feet, no shallow end.

Lots of options within walking distance for shopping and restaurants.

We would definitely stay here again!!!

It's a small, conveniently located motel that is set back from the road a bit. When we arrived, the paperwork and our room keys were waiting for us. Check in was done in seconds. The room was smaller than standard but contained everything one wants such as mini-fridge, microwave, hair dryer. The bathroom had a real exhaust fan that worked, not just a vent cover that does nothing like most hotels. The bath/ shower was in nice condition and the showerhead was fully functional. The TV, and wifi worked perfectly. The king size bed was comfortable. The price was right.
Definitely a great place to stay at and a good value.
