Everything was very nice. Great location, the rooms are very well maintained, and the breakfasts are excellent. The one suggestion I would make is the water for taking showers at night was barely better than warm both nights we were there.

We were pleasantly surprised! The lodge is in a perfect location for visiting Mt Rushmore and walking into Keystone. Great breakfast, nice lobby area, well maintained. Our room was a little dark/dated, but we spend most time outdoors so it wasn’t an issue. Would definitely book again.

Great beds, pillows, breakfast. Far in dinner food was also excellent along with the assortment of drinks they served. Location was great, five minutes from town of Keystone where we spent most of our time. Love the fire pit at night with about 20 Adirondack chair sitting around watching the kids play in the field was awesome. This is one of the best places we’ve ever stayed at in the country from start to finish.

This is a great little hotel nestled off the beaten path. Very scenic, homey and comfortable. Outdoor chairs and tables and hot tub. We were able to sit outside and enjoy the views - can even see Mt Rushmore lit up at night from the balcony. Great breakfast every morning, friendly and attentive staff. Will come back.
