I loved this hotel! It was cozy and clean. A major highlight was the restaurant which was very close and had reasonably priced food. It is in the middle of so much and close to the town of Keystone which is unique. The only negative is our room/cabin had a lot of road noise but not a big deal.

We stayed in a single cute and cozy cabin (#25). Although it over looks the parking lot and is close to the road, we loved it. The restaurant is magnificent!! Just make sure to use the call ahead seating. We will definitely stay again!

We enjoyed our stay as the place had a cozy, cottage-like feel. Our room was clean and comfortable, and the staff was amiable. We also had a delicious dinner at their restaurant. I recommend staying here because it's very close to Mount Rushmore.

The web site showed ideal pictures, the room could use a refresh in decor. The worst part was the air conditioner which sounded like an airplane landing above your head every 15 minutes throughout the night. The prospector cabins ( 6 side by side) are a stones throw from a very busy noisy highway. The restaurant was great and the staff went above and beyond the call of duty. The location was beautiful, set in the mountainside and 5 minutes from Mount Rushmore. Overall it was a nice place to stay.

High recommendation!, Loved it! Restaurant was A++
Highly recommend this place! Loved the privacy of our own cabin with an attached porch! Clean and cozy! Note the pool was not heated,so pretty chilly, even in July. The owner was very friendly! The restaurant was such a wonderful surprise. I had pan fried walleye and my husband had prime rib. It was the best meal out we’ve enjoyed in a very long time! We also ate breakfast before leaving and it was delicious!
