    What we affectionately called the "backyard"
    Amanda P.

    I stayed here about 25 years ago, family trip from NJ. Now that I live in CO, I decided to return and happy to see the Roost (formerly Buzzard's Roost) was still in business. The location is perfect- close to just about everything you could want to visit. The campground is small, just a handful of sites and cabins, and it doesn't feel crowded (we visited last weekend, what some consider off-season). We tent camped and made use of the bathroom and shower facilities- very nice and well kept. The owners were very kind and, though we didn't need them, provided us with contact info if something came up. A delightful stay and can't wait to come back.

    We loved the Roost Resort! Called day of our stay to book and we got one of the last spots in their small RV area. Owners were phenomenal, views were spectacular, everything was very clean, and great location to attractions and little downtown!

    Cute little cabins and an RV park too

    See all

    You truly can't beat the location of the Bavarian Inn Hotel in the Black Hills. It's close to…read moreeverything and all the main attractions. The property is beautiful and very well maintained, and the staff is wonderful. You can tell they genuinely enjoy their jobs, which makes the whole experience even more pleasant. Check-in was quick and easy. The rooms are a bit outdated in style, but they are very clean and comfortable. I do wish the bathroom had been a little larger and that it didn't have a shower curtain instead of a glass door. Housekeeping is not provided daily, but you can request fresh linens and amenities each day, and they will be delivered to your room. Overall, it's fairly priced, great for families, with plenty of parking and lots of nearby services. I would definitely recommend it for anyone visiting the area.

    HIGHLY RECOMMEND. We are a family of five with little kids and this has been our favorite place we…read morehave stayed on our many trips. Whether you are a retired couple, family, or young honeymooners- this place is a great place to stay in Custer. The staff was so friendly. There were so many family-centered activities to be outside and enjoy and we tried to take advantage of all of It! Outdoor and indoor pools, a full wall of board and card games and books, an outdoor fire pit setting to enjoy, chalk and jump ropes, a nice outdoor walking trail in nature, ball courts with balls. Our absolute favorite was ordering the cookies and milk bedtime delivery. This was something we could surprise our little kids with that they thought was so magical. Thank you for helping us build such special family memories!!

    A MUST STAY!!! Everything from cleanliness to most friendliest hospitality I've ever experienced…read more Anne was so welcoming when we arrived at SHADY REST, it was like meeting up with a good friend after years apart. She gave us the run down on best places to eat and things to do, which was very helpful. The Cabin was located walking distance from Main St. We actually drove up to Hill City, Keystone & Deadwood to visit for the day and later that eve came back through Custer without reservations for second night, called Anne at SR and she was happy to arrange a cabin for us within minutes of our arrival. Highly recommend staying here with great rate to boot. We enjoyed our stay very much in Custer. Can't wait to go back!! and of course stay at SHADY REST MOTEL/Cabins!! Thanks again Anne&John and GOD BLESS!

The cabin itself is cozy with cable tv, Wi-Fi, a small kitchen area, and a porch swing....and a Jacuzzi. Anne was always ready to make honest suggestions where to go, and she was always right. We asked if there was an ice machine, she said no, but brought us back a tub of ice from her own kitchen. The location is near everything you are wanting to visit in South Dakota. Highly recommend you stay here if travelling through, as you feel nestled in the woods, yet still part of civilization, and amazing customer service

Having previously stayed at The Bavarian Inn just up the road, we reached out to discover that they, among others, were closed. The owners mentioned their new property in town, EO Bungalows, and how they were offering enhanced cleaning and contactless check-in/out. This combination was perfect for us and we booked one night. This location features four private units with ensuite bathrooms and a common courtyard. Parking is curbside and you're just one block off the main strip, making the location very walkable. The units themselves are wonderful. Nicely furnished with very comfortable beds; a kitchette with everything you need including a toaster; a bathroom with an incredible steam shower, dimmable lighting in all areas and artwork that creates a wonderful, peaceful atmosphere. We drive an electric car and found convenient free charging available at the local Chamber of Commerce just two blocks away. We had dinner on The Custer Wolf's patio and enjoyed our first restaurant meal in months. Thanks EO Bungalows! We'll be back... looking forward to the next Tesla rally, whenever that is.

    Great stay, clean room, great bed. Fenced, shared courtyard with gas fire pit and grill…read more Kitchenette with small fridge, cooktop, microwave and sink. Walk to local restaurant/ bars. Grocery 1 1/2 blks away. Management very user friendly. Adults only no pets. A little over average price but we'll worth it Only inconvenience, if that, room and bath for the single queen is small but workable. Would absolutely stay again. ps.... great hot air balloon adventure 1 blk away.

    I stayed at the Rock Crest Lodge this summer when I was in Custer for a wedding. We requested an…read moreaccessible room, and it worked for the most part. There were a few issues...but they were manageable since I wasn't staying in the room alone. Trouble 1) When showering, you can't reach the shower controls while sitting on the shower bench. I keep seeing this in hotels, I'm not sure what they expect you to do. Most people who need a shower bench can't stand up and get the controls! Trouble 2) Tiny little closet rod, difficult to get to behind the table & chairs (and the bathroom door). It's low, to make it an accessible height, but so difficult to reach that it was almost not worth even trying! Trouble 3) Table and chairs in the room would be nice if we were cooking in our room & such, but since we weren't they were really just in the way. The table was too small to pull under when in a wheelchair anyway. Their location meant that I couldn't reach the kitchenette area anyway. If I'd been staying alone I'm not sure how I would have handled the shower, and I would have requested that staff remove the table & chairs. Just thought I'd warn other wheelchair users so they can make an informed decision. The bed was adequately comfortable, water pressure was great, the room a little noisy due to the proximity of the ice-room & the parking lot. Overall - could have been better, but could have been much worse - at least i was able to get in and out! :)

    Nice spot for visiting Mt Rushmore and Crazy Horse. Next door to two eateries. Great customer…read moreservice. The pool and playground were nothing special. We would stay here again.
