Top Big Thunder Gold Mine Hotel Reviews

Rushmore Express Keystone

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great time at our stay here! Only complaint, the sink and water did have a sulfuric smell to it. Other than that we had a great stay"

Keystone Boardwalk Inn and Suites

10/10 Excellent

"My partner and I stayed for one night as we traveled through the Black Hills National Forest. This inn was older, but remarkably clean and the mini fridge worked well. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The price is pretty affordable considering it was the first weekend of Sturgis's big motorcycle festival."

Powder House Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay here. We stayed in a deluxe family cabin for two nights. It is a great location close to state parks and national monuments. The restaurant had decent food. They need to work on the salad though. Breakfast was great. We loved our little cabin and are considering coming back with a larger group. Great grounds well maintained beautiful pool, free EV charging and ice when we check in the woman at the front desk helped us plan our itinerary. We didn’t realize there was a place called Custer State Park great wildlife and driving through the Black Hills really cool sites."

Comfort Inn & Suites Mt. Rushmore

8/10 Good

"The clerk at the front desk, Adam, was helpful. When we arrived in our room, we found a group of bugs, maybe 20 to 30 of them, gathered on the outside of the window but inside the outer screen. We let the front desk know. Adam came up within 5 minutes and sprayed for the bugs and was able to get rid of them. The breakfast in the morning is decent. One thing to be aware of the parking is a little tight and the spots in front of the building with yellow lines are for city employees."

Keystone Escape w/ Amazing Mt Rushmore View!

10/10 Excellent

"This place was exactly as others have noted. It was clean, well-stocked, great location with being close to town, but also feeling secluded in the woods. Neighborhood is very quiet; we never saw anyone else. Beds were comfortable, view of Mt. Rushmore was fun. We loved sitting out on the deck. Check in and check out was very easy."
