Top Big Thunder Gold Mine Hotel Reviews

Powder House Lodge

8/10 Good

"We had a great three nights stay the property is absolutely beautiful the water pressure in the shower is amazing and in the evening wild turkeys walk through the property."

K Bar S Lodge, an Ascend Collection Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean and waiting for us, even with a late check in. I requested a mountain view and the deck was huge with two chairs and a table, perfect for coffee in the morning. I was not impressed by the breakfast that was included. I went down with about 30 mins left of service and everything was empty and the staff was trying to refil as quickly as possible. It was not mentioned in the description of the resort, that they had a dining option. We ended up going to a nearby place before we checked in. We only stayed one night, but the off the beaten path location was perfect and would love to spend a 2-3 days there."

Keystone Boardwalk Inn and Suites

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed our time there, staff was very friendly at the front desk. We talked to them on numberous occasions. the property is located in a great location to everything in Keystone. WiFi is a little weak, and property seems a little dated, but good for what we needed. We will absolutely stay again when we are in the area."

15 min to Mount Rushmore, Black Hills.

10/10 Excellent

"Just perfect! All the superlatives apply. Nestled in a ponderosa pine forest with a wonderful view, it was the perfect place to return to after a “ hard day” being a tourist. Lisa and Mike are wonderful hosts. Communication was easy. The home was so clean and comfortable. Perfect for a couple. Lisa was so gracious in providing us with real farm to table eggs from her chickens which we combined with a steak we grilled in the provided bbq. We loved our first trip to the Black Hills and intend to come back to further expand our explorations of the area. And we’ll definitely be staying here again!"
