There is a cozy loft, comfortable living space, everything you need kitchen and dining area and a super comfortable main bedroom. Two bathrooms with the most adorable shower curtain give you everything you need! Stays nice and warm and opens up to a front deck that has a view. Some traffic below as you are not too far from the main road. However, the placement of the cabin really helps! And plenty of trees around. Definitely recommend!!

This mountain lodge is situated off highway 16 in Hill City, SD. It's conveniently located within 10 miles from Mount Rushmore National Memorial.

This trip we had 14 people in our group. We got there about 6:30ish. A prime rib special was to run from 4:00-8:00. I understa d they were out of it. We ordered a pizza instead. Our group ordered at 1 time. We ordered a total of 5 pizzas. Our hole group had eaten their pizzas and we had not received ours yet. I was told they only have 4 pizza ovens. We ordered a deluxe pizza and that takes longer to cook. We asked for our pizza to go then. Unfortunately when we got back to our cabin it was not the pizza we ordered. Yes it was a deluxe but was not thin crust as ordered. Server was very rude about the whole ordeal. We will not be staying here again!

The restrooms and showers at Black Elk Resort are beautiful,very clean and much larger than the shower in our Van so we used them nightly! They also have a laundry room. Bring your quarters. They also have many cute cabins although we did not have a need for them on this trip. We will be staying here again on our next trip to South Dakota and Custer State Park!

Mt Rushmore, Custer state Park, Crazy Horse etc. There is a beautiful covered patio area with BBQ's you can use & a nightly camp fire. Also, a bar, which we didn't frequent. Reality, we were disappointed from the moment we pulled in. The grass was NOT green like the pictures. I realize it was end of season, but, it was 90°! Why not water the lawn? We stayed in the front of the park, right next to the main road. Loud!! Not happy. The website pictures certainly don't show that! Our sights were so slanted, we had to use all of our blocks to jack up our trailer so we were level. Not happy. The water was BROWN! We had to use our water filter & run the water for quite awhile before it was semi clear. Needless to say, we bought bottled water for cooking & drinking. The water was ok for a few days, then almost zero water pressure for showers. By the last day, the water turned disgustingly brown again. Our water filter had turned from clear white to dark brown. Wish I could post a picture of it. We would never stay there again, due to these issues. Just want people to be aware, websites are not what they appear to be.

Black Hills Rentals is a collection of privately owned cabins of various sizes available for rent…read more Unlike many of the cabin rentals in the area, these cabins are spread out over several acres, not all bunched up together - so they are more quiet and secluded. Further unlike other rentals, they are located well off the main highway so road noise is not an issue. The owners are very friendly and gratious - easy to work with for reservations. The cabins are all relatively new, extremely clean and well equipped for any length stay. If you are looking for a truly tranquil and special experience in the Black Hills, it would be hard to go wrong with what these folks have to offer. Check out the selection of cabins on their website! I stayed at the Renegade cabin (about 4 miles west of Custer) and enjoyed its rustic feel and modern conveniences. It would be great for a couple or a young family of 3-4, but for larger parties I'd suggest some of their other properties. The kitchen is well equipped, a combination VCR/DVD player is available for entertainment, as is a small stereo with AUX and USB inputs for your CDs, iPod, etc. I was a bit concerned that this cabin was not shaded but I was amazed at how the logs insulate the inside. Even when the temps outside got up to 90 during the day, it remained comfortable inside, with ceiling fans to help keep the air moving around. It was the perfect Black Hills escape for me and I highly recommend them!

Most are full sized, year round homes and we have some smaller fully equipped cabins for smaller families. Each home or cabin has it's own lot that range from almost one to six acres!

We have been proudly serving the vacationing public since 1994, and we hope you are able to become part of our growing group of very loyal guests. Your hosts, John and Patricia

The beds were comfortable, the kitchen, fridge and stove allowed us to prepare meals (we didn't use the grill outside but would have if we weren't touring so much). We appreciated the TV with cable, the "living room area" and the covered porch area where my wife sat out and had her coffee each morning. This spot was perfect for day trips to Custer State Park, The Mammoth Site, Mount Rushmore, Deadwood and so many others. The only minor issue we experienced was that we came during an unprecedented heat wave, and there's one air conditioner for the whole unit. They do provide fans, but this meant we couldn't close doors at night without rooms getting warm. All pretty minor and not something that would matter during normal seasonal temps. We'd definitely recommend this place. It is very affordable and provides plenty of room for your family.
