Breakfast was coffee and donuts, "grab and go", from 7.30 . The decor in the room was fresh and very tasteful and rustic, fitting in with the setting in the countryside. The bed was very comfortable and the bedding was soft and pretty. The towels were soft and thick. Loved the communal BBQs on the balcony, plus the mini firepit and pizza oven. Fridge was fairly new. Coffee maker worked well and coffee pods were of good quality. There was a microwave.

Swimming pool was much smaller than photos suggested. A dipping pool, really. Lodges fight beside a very busy, noisy road, though it quietened down at night and we had no trouble sleeping. All lodges face the road,. One end of the building looks over the wee swimming pool towards the road and a fast food restaurant beyond..The other end looks over the carpark, to the road and the hill beyond.

If you are looking for a great location without the crowd, this is definitely it. Everything you want to see is close, just a short drive. There is not the crowds of tourists here. Nice Dairy Whip place across the road. The room was very clean. The beds were super comfortable. The door shuts air tight, blocking out noise from anyone enjoying the deck. The owner seems to work very hard at maintenance of the property. I saw him and his work truck doing things a lot. Be advised that there is no daily housekeeping. There is no ice machine, but there is an ice bucket. You can purchase ice in the lobby or down the street at the convenience store. Like I said, the location, cleanliness and beds are awesome.

Just that the floor of the shower is slick, could use a rubber mat for people who have a fear of falling in the shower.

No breakfast though advertised. We were told coffee and doughnuts were served in season. We did not realize season was a factor. Obviously we had never been to SD! Also no closet in the room was new to us.

Since answered this above, I will answer the above question now. The proprietors were kind and helpful. The view and ambience made us feel in the rustic, mountain spirit. We loved have the electric fireplace!

This was a great facility. The family that owns this property is great and very accommodating. Very down to earth and just good people. The world needs more people like them. The property was very clean and the pride of ownership is very evident.

The size of the bathroom and shower. Having a kitchenette, something had to give and the bathroom/shower was it. Very difficult to even move in the shower. Otherwise, there isn’t anything else that I could, or would even want to complain about. The other room had a full tub/shower and two queen beds so it has to be due to the kitchenette. If you don’t need two sinks, book the two queen room and you will be very happy here.

Rooms were big and comfortable Owners are super friendly Great view Dairy Twist across the road was delicious About an hour or less from many of the tourist attractions in the Black Hills

Breakfast was only coffee and donuts... Not bad Strange conversation with a guest about Bigfoot, Reptilians, the Ice Wall... that's what I get for drinking at midnight

Cary and Melissa (owners) were so kind and welcoming! Rooms looked recently remodeled, lots of really nice homey touches. Plenty of towels, blankets, snacks, Keurig coffeemaker. Cozy fireplace-heater. Very comfy! Nice movable TV with DirecTV. Location was great.

Walls were a little thin (we mentioned this), the only other guests were right next to us and a tad noisy. Breakfast was pretty sparse, but we've had worse! Shower was small, but the bathroom as a whole was large.

From the minute we arrived the owner and his family made us feel welcome. The room was recently updated and super clean. The beds were very comfortable. We liked the location and it’s proximity to all the parks and sites we wanted to see. I would highly recommend starting at Mountain View Lodge and cabins.

Not far from Mount Rushmore and Crazy Horse Monument. Picturesque location. Rustic lodge ambience.

Limited surface areas and storage space. Very limited clothes hanging facilities. Too many decorative pillows and features that took up space needed for storage. Tight shower/toilet space.

Breakfast was at check-in area. Pastries, donuts, and there is a toaster. Coffee and very welcoming. Room was clean and bed was comfy! Only about 15 min from Mt. Rushmore.

Road noise is a bit loud. Wish there was a blind on the window in addition to the curtain to insulate and help keep out noise and light.

The rooms were immaculate and updated. Very comfortable bed and pillows. The view was beautiful. The location was ideal to many attractions nearby.

The rooms dont locked automatically like other hotel rooms might. This lead to random children barging into our room on 4 different occasions as their parents clearly were not watching them. Also we were not able to enjoy the common deck space as other guests monopolized all the tables. There were tables across from each room letting one believe that that table was designated for your room, but some guests were taking up multiple tables.
