We stayed at this hotel on a recent trip to Mt. Rushmore. While the rooms are slightly above average, its setting within the Black Hills made me not want to leave. The hotel is close to both Mt. Rushmore and Custer State Park. Breakfast is inlcuded and I recommend you have it. Fresh waffles with berries and egg burritos were... More

Nice tucked away area with lots of room to wander around. Here for a wedding and was a beautiful area for a great day. Hotel staff were great, rooms were clean, and noise was at a minimum. I suppose the wedding dance was a little loud for some but hey it's a dance. We stayed for two days and would... More

This is the place to stay in Keystone, SD! It is conveniently located for travel to Mt. Rushmore, Custer State Park, and other destinations in the Black Hills. K Bar S is about 1/4 mile outside of Keystone - it is SO well worth staying here instead in the midst of the touristy town. The setting is rural and peaceful;... More

This hotel is about 1/4 mile from the main highway but what a difference that distance makes. The property is nestled against pine tree covered hills. We saw deer and wild turkeys wandering around the place. Request a room with a view of Mount Rushmore. You can only see the profile of George Washington, but it is delightful to sit... More

Stayed here with a group of 5 of us. We stayed here while on a road trip visiting Mount Rushmore, Jewel Cave, Badlands, and Missile Silo. We arrived late in the day and had no problems checking in and getting our room. The room had a private balcony and two queen beds. Nothing special about them comfortable enough. No wifi... More

Love it is located away from the touristy area but close to attractions. We stayed 1 of two reserved nights as our family got sick on vacation (strep, not from anything on location). They were great about cancelling 2nd night. I requested a monument view when reserving online and it was granted ~ thank you! I thought breakfast was perfect... More

Beautiful setting among the pines with a slight, profile view of Thomas Jefferson. Rooms are standard, nothing exciting, but, the balcony made up for any shortcoming. Fan tied to same switch as the light in the bathroom is irritating. Coffee all day is nice in the main lobby. Breakfast would have to improve to be to Hampton Hotel's level.

We stayed at the K Bar S for 6 days in May and could not have been more pleased with it. It is "up the road" from Keystone so you feel like you are in the country. The buildings are well suited to its location and reminded us of many of the State Park Lodges we have in our native... More

We spent a relaxing, peaceful weekend getaway at K Bar S Lodge. Close to town but felt secluded. (So glad we chose this over "in town" hotels!) The room was good sized, comfortable and the view from the balcony was wonderful. It overlooks a big meadow (deer grazing), wooded hillsides and a view of Mt. Rushmore that's lit at night.... More

This is a classy, upscale lodge just one mile outside of Keystone SD with awesome views of the cliffs & woods. Everything looked brand new. There was no microwave or frig in the rooms but the beds were great. Staff was friendly. Had a good hot breakfast served in a huge octagon shaped glass gazebo where you can watch the... More
