Mt. Rushmore Visit

The cabin was very nice. It was clean, and roomier than we expected. We loved seeing the deer and wild turkeys right in the yard. Location near Mt. Rushmore and Keystone was excellent.

Pleasant, Inviting, and thoughtfully decorated!

We absolutely loved staying in this cabin! Response from the hosts was prompt and professional when we reached out with a question. Upon entry of the cabin, it was so thoughtfully decorated/arranged, things were placed in a way that was very practical for use of guests. My Children felt at home staying here which was wonderful! It was very tidy, clean, and overall a wonderful cabin. We absolutely would recommend staying in this cabin and we ourselves want to make it a point to stay here again. It's very close to Mt. Rushmore, the town train ride, shops/attractions and a great antique store all while still being in a quite/peaceful area.

What an AMAZING stay! Our cabin (Ingersol) was a great place for our little group to stay. The place was clean and well appointed. The beds were comfortable, and the ceiling fans were nice to have. We even used the grill and it fired up right away! (You do need a new grill brush however) The steam train went right by every day and the little brook babbling in front of our cabin was perfect! The ONLY issue we had was the shower was small. But I guess miners were shorter back in those days :) We had very little interaction with the staff because we were out in the surrounding Keystone area each day, but we were happy with how the property was kept up. Backwoods Inns and Cabins is a great place t call home when you are in the Black Hills / Keystone area.
