My daughter and boyfriend were travelling from Kansas to Canada (SK) and had Mt Rushmore a must see on their travels. They hoped they'd find a place in Rapid City, but no luck, no rooms and what ones were left were WAY out of their tight budget. SO they thought Keystone would be a great place, but ran into the...

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review. Your family was very sweet - and we were glad to have them, regardless of the hour they arrived. We are thrilled that they enjoyed their time with us, as limited as it was -- and we hope that if they pass our way again, they will stop by. Having a "family"... More

Although I had a reservation, I did not get to stay here. My two adult sons and I visited this beautiful area recently and planned to stay at the Battle Creek Lodge. When we checked in and I walked into our two queen bed room I was pleased and upset simultaneously. The room was fresh and clean and delightful but... More

This is a jewel of a property. Very quaint with a super and sincere staff. Cine & Tammy are ready to meet your needs. Here we are a year later and remembering what a great stay we experienced in this converted firehouse. Very close to the town making it an easy walk. They offer a total variety in their breakfast...

Stayed over Memorial Day weekend. Location was off the main street nestled against the hills. Rooms were average and the beds were excellent. The rooms with 2 queens are a little larger. Breakfast was enough to get you started- perfect for families. Tammy is gracious and quite helpful. Support the local businesses, stay here and avoid the chains

Clean, comfortable, and quiet. Hostess was helpful, friendly, and a good cook! Close to everything in Keystone, and a short drive to a vast # of things to do in this area. We didn't stay indoors much, just so many things to do. It was fun to sit on the porch and watch the chipmunks run around in the early... More

We have stayed at the Lodge twice now and have found it and the staff nothing short of warm and inviting. We have been spending time in the hills every year for the past 20 years and I would have to say they are some of the best we've met. While the lodge is an older building with lots of... More

Never actually stayed here, which I know is weird, but feel compelled to write my first review ever. My family travels much per mine and wife’s work. Based on these reviews, I picked this motel. Spoke with Tammy not once, but twice to book, then re-book when plans for a three-week western swing kept changing. Finally the trip, to include... More

Wow! Thank you! Although we are disappointed that you are not going to have the opportunity to visit us this year - we are glad that your experience with us has been good. I will admit, we struggle with the issue of "On-Line Reservations" as it becomes more popular every year. However, at this point - I just don't feel... More

We are a family mostly of visitors from out of state and came to south Dakota for a graduation about 3 hours from rapid city.

This is a very comfortable, convenient, and economical place to stay when visiting the Black Hills. We especially enjoyed the upper-level balcony with its cushy furniture and small tables. There is another patio on the side of the building that folks also used and liked. The breakfast was much better than what is referred to as a Continental in the... More
