We stayed for a week at the Black Hills Mtn Lodge with our 4 kids ages 2-12 and had the most amazing time. The location is one of a kind: beautiful, comfortable, quiet, and secluded. We found this to be central and convenient for our South Dakota activities. The lodge is gorgeous, very well equipped, very clean, and everything is quite new. The hot tub was wonderful to relax in after a day of activities and our kids also really enjoyed the arcade. Communication with the host was prompt and helpful. Tips: get groceries in Rapid City as there is no grocery store in Keystone that I am aware of. Highly recommend an all wheel or 4 wheel drive vehicle to get to the lodge, even in the summer. It is on a well maintained forest service road, but still quite a climb with several tight turns and drops. We absolutely loved our stay here and would recommend this place to anyone!
This home is amazing. We travel frequently and have stayed at some great rentals, but itâs clear the owners have gone above and beyond with this property. We were greeted with a personalized thank you card and bottle of wine on arrival. The home has a heated bathroom floor, heated toilet seat đ, binoculars for wildlife viewing, and popcorn with popcorn bowls for the theater room. The views are amazing. The house was perfectly clean and very welcoming. Weâd absolutely stay here again. The only thing weâd do differently is not rent a tiny compact carâ-our rental struggled going up the steep portions of the gravel road.
