We spent 4 nights at K-Bar-S on our recent (and first) trip to the Black Hills. It was a delightful facility in every way. The included breakfasts were a perfect way to start each day, and the hotel room layout was perfect. Nice patios with each room, and there are large patio/table areas between each building, perfect for hanging out... More

Ask for a King with a view to be able to look at George Washington on Mount Rushmore from your room. The room was a great size and having a balcony was a plus. The washer and dryer were complimentary and they sold single size Tide detergent boxes at the desk. Breakfast was free and was awesome. Lots of variety... More

My husband and I just spent a week at the K Bar S Lodge with a group of 32 people. The Lodge is off the beaten track a little and the setting is lovely and peaceful. Yes, you can see Mount Rushmore in the distance (George Washington is very easy to spot, the others not so much) but there is... More

Great views, lovely property, nice breakfast, wonderful staff! Only gripe: room doors are self-closing and they close with a BANG. Our sleep was interupted by the tour group's slamming doors at 6AM.

We just got back from a recent trip to the Black Hills. Based on the reviews, I had decided to make the K Bar our base. I was so happy with the decision, as the lodge was a peaceful refuge from the tourist towns of the Black Hills. The lodge is set among pine trees with wild turkeys and other... More

We spent 2 days here. All aspects were excellent. The Breakfast buffet included unique items like cheese omelettes and strawberries, blueberries, whipped cream for the waffles.

Travelling for 6 weeks for our honeymoon K bar S Lodge fell nothing short of perfect. When we arrived after a long drive we were greeted by friendly staff who informed us we were to have the best room in the house. And they were right. Our room was amazing. So quiet and peaceful with a great view. From our... More

We enjoyed our stay at the K Bar S Lodge. The breakfast buffet every morning was GREAT. the hotel was clean and close to Mount Rushmore. We were there in October, which is the "off" season. The town literally closed-up at 8pm, so we were wishing for more activities at the hotel. It would have been nice if the hotel... More

K Bar S Lodge is a great hotel in Keystone. We stayed here during our honeymoon in August 2008 and had a great time. We could see Mount Rushmore from our hotel room. Our only qualm would be the price, as I think we paid $250 per night, and although it was very nice, it was nothing extra special. Maybe... More
