I am a seasoned traveler and am in the process of booking my Summer vacation to Wyoming and South Dakota. I absolutely love tripadvisor.com and appreciate all of the comments that my fellow travelers have submitted for various hotels, restaurants, etc. I'll be staying in the Mount Rushmore area for a few days during my upcoming vacation and decided to...

I had one rule: NO CHAINS. I picked BCL because of some stellar online reviews...not just about the what a great... More

I've stayed here many times and would highly recommend staying here to all my friends. It's quiet and peaceful with amazing views. It was very clean and the staff was amazing. Anything you need they have! They go above and beyond to make sure you have everything you need. I can't wait to go back again this year!

Where to begin, you all know the motel where "they'll keep the light on" for you....well this is it only better!! When I first called Tammy to "check out" their accommodations I was impressed by her friendliness and to find out she was not only the owner but the operator as well. In this day and age that in itself... More

would give 3.5 rating - Stayed one night in early September. Nice and helpful staff, lovely hot breakfast more like a B&B (scrambled eggs and bacon, as I recall). Nice to talk to other lodgers over breakfast. Small and friendly place. Location was convenient. BUT... the carpet in our room was really filthy - very stained - the air conditioner... More

The Battle Creek Lodge is a nice little hotel in Keystone. My partner and I had done some checking on this place before we booked it. I have to say the reviews from on line were dead on spot. To start with we wanted a place that was not over the top in price but was also not a hole... More

When we checked in, Tammy gave us excellent dinner recommendations and information about Mount Rushmore's evening lighting ceremony. When we mentioned we would probably need to depart before breakfast is available at 7:30am, we were graciously told to stop by earlier. Upon checking out at 6:30am, we were given PopTarts, granola bars, grapes, mini-muffins, etc. for the road! How nice... More

We stayed here for 3 night in early Sept. We were going to stay in Rapid City but changed to Keystone because it was closer to the 3 main attractions we wanted to see and I liked the reviews I saw on trip advisor. I have no complaints. The beds were the closest in firmness to ours at home and... More
