Great bungalow in the perfect location!

Enjoyed a three night stay in a bungalow. Great location as it was 20 minutes to Mt Rushmore and 20 minutes to Rapid City. Restaurant and Saloon across the street with live music at night. Fire pit area was also a big hit with the kids as well as the small playground. Area was safe and well kept. The bungalow while cozy was a great value and the hosts were helpful, funny, and accommodating. Simple continental breakfast, the brownies were a huge hit. Overall, loved the spot and would definitely recommend while visiting the area.

We loved our stay here. The rate was very affordable, yet the room was still very nice - clean and pleasant smelling; full kitchen and full size fridge; ceiling heater in the bathroom; two large, clean, and comfortable beds; and a somewhat rustic look. It's only about a 10-15 minute drive to Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse, and Custer State Park from here, so it's conveniently located. The staff was also very friendly. The only slight negatives are that the office is located across the one-way highway, so getting to and from is somewhat difficult (merging, crossing two lanes of traffic and turning >90 degrees within about 200 feet), and the breakfast is limited to coffee, bread, English muffins, two fruit (bananas and oranges), and cereal (i.e., nothing cooked); however, what is available is fresh and tastes good. If the limited breakfast keeps the cost down, I'll take it. The lounge area where breakfast is located is rustic and comfortable too. Overall a great facility.

A/C- heater was very noisy. Took the cover off to see if something was in the fan and filter looked like it hadn't been cleaned in at least a year. Notified owner, said they would have maintenance take care of it. Overall fair to good value for what we paid and close to Mount Rushmore.

I flew to Rapid City to visit my mom and attend the P!nk concert in Souix Falls. Unfortunately the concert was canceled, so I decided that we still needed an adventure. I was going to book a hotel when I stumbled upon the cabins! I will NEVER regret my decision! I booked for 3 nights and ended up adding an extra one! The staff was incredible, the cabin was clean and so QUIET! I haven't slept that good in years! We played games, talked, and bonded. This was so good for our mom/daughter relationship and helped with healing old wounds. We are now planning more quiet trips like this and less grand noisy ones. Thank you Rockerville for the absolute perfect "staycation" we will be back!
