A value in many respects. Quiet, clean, lovely setting, excellent customer service and a perfect location for spending time at Custer State Park. We chose a cabin with cooking facilities and enjoyed the flexibility of being able to prepare some of our own meals, especially the fresh-caught trout from successful afternoons of fishing at Custer. Quick access to the town... More

We expected something really basic and were most surprised.This was very clean, comfy and rustic. Great value for the money. We had a basic room with no tea/coffee, cooking facilities, so you need to provide your own or go into Custer. We were most impressed with the accommodation and would certainly recommend it to anyone who enjoys peace and quiet... More

It was such a treat to stay in cabin #10. Great views with lovely babbling creek outside the living room and bedroom windows. Quiet, very clean. Everything we needed was provided. Just brought our own food and we were good to go. We will be back!

This was our first visit to Calamity Peak Lodge and we were very impressed and enjoyed our stay. David was a great host. There was plenty of room for 9 people (split between cabins 4 & 5). Everything was clean and the beds were very comfortable. Our kids and grandkids are already talking about when we can go back. We... More

This ended up being our favorite lodging during our two week trip. We stayed in Cabin #5 for three nights. Two bedroom, kitchen. Satellite TV and WiiFi. Very rustic and definitely not fancy, but this is the sort of thing we enjoy while visiting National Parks. Convenient for Mt. Rushmore and the Black Hills. A day drive for The Badlands.

Great 3-night stay at this pleasant and well-located lodge. Family-owned, David was a great host. I'd happily stay here again. ROOM: As a solo traveler I took the "small" #1 room near the lodge office. I found it to be comfortable, bright and well cared for with plenty of room. The bed was surprisingly nice and the bedding was soft.... More

After riding from the Badlands to Custer, SD. We were not at all disappointed with our stay. The owner when I called took my name and told me I didnt need a credit card to reserve. Shocking. The room was small but very clean, the bed was so soft and the sheets felt new. TV Cable beautiful view, Wi Fi... More

My wife and I stayed for 12 days in Sept. 2009. The cabin was very clean. On the 5th day the manager (not the owner) came to the door in an absolute rage and declared that we had destroyed the entire cabin. It was a very spooky experience. After ranting for a while he left. We have stayed in MANY... More

My husband and I are staying at Calamity Peak Lodge. I could not find any reviews on this place when we came but wanted to give a thumbs up to the lodge for anyone traveling on a budget. We have stayed in two separate rooms, as the larger room was not available until the second day of our trip. David... More
