Great place to book
Don’t hesitate to book here. We had 5 in our family and compared to a hotel this was so much better for us. Place was clean, owners were great, and we were close to Rushmore, Custer, and the other local attractions.

This is a cozy little place. It is nice but be aware the cabins are small. Has a very neat little tap room that is quite fun. The owners are very sweet and welcoming. Very easy access to Mt Rushmore and Crazy Horse.

Phenomenal
What a great place to stay. This was easily the best place we stayed at during our time in the Hills. Lora and Dan are great hosts and made our stay even better. Make sure you spend some time in the taproom as they have some local brews to choose from. We can’t wait too stay here again.

Best stay ever!
We stayed at one of Dan and Loras cabins and we loved it! The cabin was very clean and in the perfect spot for a peaceful stay. They gave us a great dinner recommendation, which we tried and loved! They are very nice and make you feel at home. I would 100% recommend the Black Elk Resort to anyone looking for a nice getaway in the black hills.
