Legion Lake is a beautiful lake with lots to do and stunning views. Many people love taking the…read moreleisurely loop around the lake and to take in the views from all sides. This lake has clear waters and interesting rock formations, as you will find in all of Custer State Park. You can spend a day on the water relaxing at this lake. They have kayak rentals, stand up paddle board rentals, and canoe rentals. If you would like, you can stay at the lodge there to soak in all the best things related to Legion Lake. Legion Lake has a dockside grill menu, although we didn't eat here so I can't comment on it. I love that everything here is so convenient for a relaxing time on the lake.

Beautiful setting near the lake. The front desk was rude. They tried to make us move cabins. We…read morereserved a cabin for Thursday and Friday then my girlfriend reserved Saturday. We made sure it was the same one when we talked to the lady at the front desk she said we had to move to another cabin. Luckily we contacted reservations and they worked it out, but we missed 2 hours of sightseeing to do this. No apologies or how can we make this better. The cabin had a broken air vent and particle of wood came floating out during the night as it was over the bed. We love Custer and all the wonderful things in the area but won't be staying at this lodge again.

We had spent the morning observing bison in the southern part of the park, and we were getting…read morehungry. We were in the vicinity of the Blue Bell Lodge, so decided to give it a try. We were driving a rental car, that had a wonky license plate that was hanging on by one screw. As we walked in the restaurant manager had noticed our license plate, and offered to help us fix it when we were finished. He then sat us in a partially full dining room, which is beautifully decorated. I went with the bison chili, and it was super tasty! For me, it was a little bit on the spicy side, but I know for a lot of people they would love it that way. I asked for a side of cornbread, as I had just ordered a cup of the chili, not the main chili meal, and they were very gracious and brought one out. The cornbread was also super delicious! As we finished our meal, it had started to rain. The manager stood by his offer to help us with the license plate, and met us just up the road a bit at a place where the maintenance supervisor's truck was located so that he could get us a zip tie to fix our license plate. It was such a nice gesture, and we appreciated that he went out of his way to help us. We would highly recommend the Blue Bell Lodge!

We saw bison outside our cabin and nearby grazing in the grassy area out front. We loved having our own kitchen where we got food at a local grocery store in the town of Custer and made our own meals. We enjoyed having coffee in the mornings on the front patio and there is a picnic table you can sit out. There was a couple bunnies that we would see when sitting out on our front porch and we loved watching them! The cabins allowed for a peaceful and relaxing stay and you are right in the heart of Custer State Park. The bed was comfy and the cabins were well stocked. We only got WiFi at the main lodge but didn't really care because we didn't go to be on our phones, but instead to enjoy nature and the wildlife around us. We ate lunch once at the restaurant but feel there are our better restaurants in the town of Custer. The lodge has a gift shop if you are looking for souvenirs or gifts. We really enjoyed our stay here and absolutely loved Custer State Park.

While visiting Custer State Park, I decided to stay at this historic lodge. Apparently two…read morepresidents have stayed here, with Coolidge calling it the "Summer White House." The complements and accolades stop there. You get almost nothing for, in my case, $250/night. You get a roof over your head but that is it. You do not get: WiFi in the rooms (ridiculous in 2025 but you can go to the lobby) or room service in any fashion (ridiculous). You are expected to check out by 10 AM (ridiculous). The bathroom is so incredibly tiny that the bathroom door only clears the toilet by 1". The rooms are not very well appointed, and are instead, quite tacky. I will not be back and I encourage you to find other accommodations. If all they have to hang their hat on is that two presidents stayed there, they should re-evaluate everything.

It's a historic Lodge with lots of rooms good places to eat and a yearly summer artist in residence that you can talk to about all the arts that they're producing on site and watching the new painting.
