What a lovely motel and what lovely owners !
Rarely seen a cleaner hotel or motel and so stylish.
Rooms have a decent size, nice and updated decor, small but stylish bathroom, fridge.
Very good beds and everything so perfectly clean.
We loved it and recommend everyone passing though Custer to do the same experience.
Anyway, you are much better of here than in the overpriced hotels and restaurants in Keystone if you wish to visit Mt. Rushmore and Custer State Park.

Immaculate, retro Mom & Pop motel. The proprietors are super-nice and friendly and the little porches and patios outside the rooms gave me a chance to meet some other guests and sit up far into the night talking. I just completed a month-long journey through the U.S. I stayed at some fancy places and some discount places -- The Rocket was my favorite. Plus, close to Custer State Park, the George Mickelson bike trail. Mt. Rushmore, etc.

I was leery about booking here, however as soon as I saw the cute place my fears dissipated! This is one of the CLEANEST motels I have ever stayed at. The staff is excellent and accommodating. The rooms are small but adequate. The blast from the past decor make it even more quaint. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this little GEM! Would definitely stay here again!

When we first saw the Rocket Motel I though we were on Route 66 somewhere in New Mexico. Fortunately, it was far better than anything you’d find on R66, even when it was at the peak. The folks who remodeled the Rocket Motel did an outstanding job. The place has great curb-appeal, nice staff, and very clean and comfortable rooms with a blast from the past. Location is perfect in downtown, close to all restaurants, bars, shops, and brewery. Highly recommend a stay at this establishment.
