Perfect base camp for our South Dakota adventures. Located in a convenient area for us to access the country we needed. Simple rooms with everything we needed to stay a week. Easy checkin and checkout! Convenience store within walking range plus the TeePee cafe for breakfast or lunch just across the parking area. Look forward to next year!

Disliked: Amenities
The air conditioner did not work well. The room at its lowest was 78 degrees. The staff did give us extra fans but it didn’t help. There was a microwave but no utensils. A coffee maker but no coffee cups. One roll of toilet paper for two nights for four people. Not satisfied at all.
