We took our 3 young kids here (8,6,3) and had a great stay in the Rose Garden room. The place is immaculate. The house is a historical feature in itself and one of the individual's from Laura's books owned it. Melissa Gilbert even stayed here while in town. The owners are fabulous and welcoming of kids. The entire front wrap around porch has toys waiting for the kids- sounds tacky but it's not- still clean and lovely. But if staying in a lovely, historical house isn't enough, the breakfast is above all expectations! I had ordered the pancake man for the kids breakfast choice and had wanted to read that part of the story for the kids...couldn't find it in the books or scrambling online. Well at our beautiful little breakfast room, our host Andy brought over one of the books opened to the section about that- they read my mind!!! We sat down to fresh fruit, pink china - which my girls loved- it felt like a fancy tea! They had Ingalls trivia on the table and a CD of Pa's fiddle music playing. I had the chocolate Belgian waffle with strawberries and my husband had an omelette- both we're fantastic. Oh and choose the ham! It's wonderful. One note of caution- Hotwire and orbitz and like companies may show this hotel as full. It did for us but when we called they had rooms- even the one we wanted! So make sure you call them directly. This is soooo worth the money for a visit to DeSmet...made the whole experience extra special.

Hang on...this is a mere $10 more than a rather miserable looking hotel in town. I'll take it! This place is a knockout. Typical small town corner building completely remodeled - and remodeled well - to be a B&B. High ceilings...old time feel...nice furnishings. I loved the spacious salon / dining room. Would be nice when the fire is lit. Only thing missing, and this might be a seasonal / regional thing, is a decanter of sherry for the guests. That's always a warm touch. Our room was very comfortable. The bed was good and the bathroom - shower only - had all we needed tucked away in a cabinet. Cute faux fireplace. Kim is an attentive but not intrusive host. The breakfast for our visit was French Toast with sausage and fresh fruit. It was fine, but here is where an otherwise excellent place falls a tad short. B&Bs are more of a pampering event. Cream for the coffee should not be skim or 1% milk. Syrup should be genuine maple syrup. French Toast should be made with a dense quality bread...maybe with a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg...not just plain fried because that's pretty flavorless if you're avoiding the "syrup." HOWEVER...the fruit mix was exceptional. Best I've ever had. Every single bite was heaven. Would I return? Absolutely. It was a lovely stay. Wish we'd had more time to hang out downstairs. It's just nice to sit in a lovely room. DeSmet is a very small town with seemingly only the Ingalls attraction to draw people from afar but still...there's something charming about it. The people are exceptionally friendly.

The casino itself was so exciting with a large variety of slot machines and video machines to play at as well as several card tables (poker, blackjack, roulette.) There was staff keeping the machines clean at all times as well has bringing me a drink anytime mine got low. Our room was a double queen and it was quite spacious and very clean. The bathroom was large and clean and came stocked full of fresh towels as well as pleanty of quality soaps and shampoo. I got lunch at the deli and the hamburger they made me was phenomenal. Hand pressed patty with fresh vegetables for toppings. I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel and I will certainly be back next time I come through South Dakota.

The room and building as a whole were very clean, no complaints there. The bed and sheets are comfortable, but the pillows are fairly flat. The water pressure in the shower is incredible, but the shower curtain doesn't block it all. So, we had a permanent wet spot on the carpet just outside the bathroom door. The AC unit was incredibly quiet, we would have had no problem leaving it on high all night. Finally, breakfast was better than most, it runs from 6-10am.

It is a family owned motel, and find that Dennis and Elaine (owners/managers) are very friendly & welcoming. We have stayed in several different rooms, rooms with one bed and rooms with 2 and in the double kitchen room. EACH and EVERY time we have found the rooms to be EXTREMELY clean (I am very picky on room cleanliness and have found this motel to have rooms CLEANER than most of the Ramada's, Holiday Inns and other chain motels..this makes me happy; not cry). The beds are very comfortable and appear to be new; the bedding is clean, in excellent shape; LOVE the extra touches like the oversized large sized hiqh quality bath towels (not those small little white towels you find in the chain motels); grills are outside for guests to use in the shaded picnic area (nice to go to the local grocery & get some food & grill & relax outside). Hunters & fishermen do stay here, although we have not stayed for that, but there is a separate building they have that has a cleaning area & freezer-again an added benefit that you don't find at a chain motel. And the price is a LOT less than a chain motel and at the Hi WAy we always get a clean, comfortable room and are greeted by friendly, polite hosts who will go out of their way to make you feel welcome and try to help you in any way that you can.
