We really enjoyed this quirky little place in the Black Hills. I loved the two separate rooms in the choice with two queen beds. Staff are helpful and pleasant and everything nicely met expectations.

This is a unique property with individual bungalows. Very cute and in good repair. The beds are comfy, the room clean. They have their quirks. The floor in ours was tilted a bit, so you walked quickly to the tiny bathroom. Took the hot water a few minutes to arrive and the air conditioner didn't do much to cool the room. We just opened the windows and let the evening breeze in. But a great value with lots of character.

This experience was something I was looking for. I wanted to know what it would be like to lodge in an environment that my late parents would have experienced in the late 1940s & early 1950s. This is the real deal. Very well maintained without losing the rustic feel. Staff Excellent. Please Note: interested travelers - spend a little more on a larger cabin area. You will not regret it. This place is adorable.

Good base camp for Sturgis activities
This Motel was good for what it is-a place to spend the night. The owner was great and flexible. My only concern as a motorcycle rider in a group was the gravel parking lot and not having a pool to come cool down in after a long ride but that was known ahead of time and still worth it.
