About this property
American Pines Lodge, 5 miles from Mt. Rushmore
American Pines Lodge is a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home that can sleep up to 12 people with a queen bed in each room, a sofa sleeper in the living room & 4 portable cots. There are 2 full bathrooms, one being a master bath with a soaker tub, fully furnished kitchen, living room area with satellite TV & DVD player, as well as front & back decks with propane BBQ grill & yard area with a fire pit. This is a side x side duplex & we, the owners live in the other unit. There is a dual locking door between the 2 units. Located just 5 miles from Mt. Rushmore & 2 miles from downtown Keystone, American Pines Lodge is close to most major attractions but sets on 4 acres of mountain meadow in a beautiful valley with Battle Creek running through the property. Our other listing, American Pines Cabin, is also on the same property. There is a playground & basketball court available for our guests. Hiking & biking trails are accessed right off the property as well as ATV/UTV rentals through Black Hills Wilderness Edge to get off the beaten path & experience the Black Hills. Come see why we've been blessed to call the Black Hills home & want to share it with you.

About the host
Hosted by Becki Groven

We are a small family owned & operated business specializing in offering personal, friendly service. We own a cabin rental business as well as a ATV rental business in the area because we want to be able to be home when our 3 boys get off the bus, we want to be able to play & work together, & we want to raise our children with strong ethics which included hard work & playing in the great outdoors!! Our love for God, country, & family is why we do what we do & at the heart of our business. We've been blessed to call the Black Hills home & would love to share it with you. We'd love to have you stay with us, JAROD, BECKI, AUSTIN, CODY & KYLE
Why they chose this property
Becki's family is originally from Keystone. She has relatives that helped pioneer the town as well as help carve Mt. Rushmore. Jarod's family is from the Wall & Kadoka, South Dakota, the Badlands area. Beside Mt. Rushmore being the National Monument, Keystone is full of living history of the miner era that once made the town thrive. The Black Hills is also full of geological history & a favorite for rock hunters, which we are, & rock climbers, which we aren't:). The small hometown atmosphere of the Black Hills as well as the many diverse sites & attractions makes this the perfect place to make memories for a lifetime, again & again.
What makes this property unique
Hiking right out the front door, driving through the Pigtail Bridges, making S'mores over an open fire, playing tag with the kids in the backyard, 5 minutes to Mt. Rushmore, cliff-jumping at Horsethief Lake, looking through unique shops in nearby towns, going on a cave tour, laying on the grass & looking up at the stars, rock collecting, fishing at Lakota Lake, swimming at Little Falls, exploring Ingersoll mine, playing at the city park in Keystone, participating in small town parades & events, enjoying being together with our family.
