We liked the food and drink options available. The tent was terrible for sleeping- the bed was creaky and noisy, the wind was whipping the sides of the tent against the bed making it impossible to sleep.

Great for campers that can't be too far from the washroom. A bit of a trek to get up to, but it's all worth it. Close to shopping and the Mt. Rushmore area.

Between camping and glamping

A great experience as long as you know what to expect. Did not expect lack of electricity in tent, only small battery powered fans to beat the heat. Very rough terrain to tent, dangerous for elderly. Tent and bathroom clean, except for cowhide on the floor. Staff great, loved being able to bring our dog to dinner. She rated the stay “incredible”!

Last minute decision to stay here as always wanted to try a glamping experience. Exceeded our expectations. Really enjoyed the location and the facilities, both our tent and the lodge areas. Surprised at the quality of food available which was appreciated as allowed us to further enjoy the resort. Staff pleasant and helpful. Had a huge rain storm complete with thunder & lighting which made our tent so cozy. Fire / stove worked perfectly (I guess some guest were not as comfortable on operation as quite a bit of whining on the cold in the morning). Minor suggestion, how bought plastic wine glasses or plastic stemless glasses. Plastic water cups although understand the need tough to enjoy a glass of wine in the wonderful atmosphere in a water cup. AND cut to single toast for avocado and use real avocados as the green goo poor replacement. Cut portion and improve quality. Goes with your other items (yes, I’m in the restaurant industry). Haha!

Just be prepared for how basic this is and definitely know what the temperatures are going to be. The tent is barren and you’ll find minimal comfort inside. We froze at night - could literally see our breath in the morning bc no one can wake up every hour or so to put a new log in the little stove. There wasn’t even a little clicker-lighter, so we ran out of matches trying to light kindling at 3am. No robes or slippers to keep you warm while trying to make fire. In the day, it was uncomfortably warm and all you get is a hockey puck-sized fan that plugs into a USB. The toilet situation is, let’s say, extremely intimate. Where our tent was located, we could hear every car on the gravel at all hours. However, there are bright spots: the staff is wonderful and the central lobby/clubhouse tent was very nice with live music, an observation deck to see Mt. Rushmore, and fire pits with s’mores. Personally, I just don’t think you can fairly call this glamping. It absolutely wasn’t.
