Such a great place to stay. Even with the bike rally going on, it was super quiet. The check in staff was very helpful - as well as the checkout staff. The cabins were cozy and quite adorable. Would definitely stay here again!!
We stayed in a cabin up on the hill. It was just what we were looking for. Private, more room than a hotel room. The cabin had a king size bed, couch, table and two chairs, a small sink and counter in addition to the bathroom. It still had plenty of room. The staff at check in was very friendly and clear on instructions. Would definitely stay here again.
We had a great stay here! Maria took good care of us when we arrived and upgraded us to a larger cabin when we realized the one I had booked wasn’t quite big enough. Beautiful view. Great service. We will be back!

The hotel was is a great location and the staff was really nice. The bed in our room needed to be replaced and the AC was loud.
We had a cabin up on the hill. It seemed new. Everything was clean. Very nice layout and spacious. It was a cute place to stay. Table on porch as well as table in the room. Extra sink which is always helpful. Breakfast was a continental grab and go, but it served the purpose adequately.
My only suggestion would be to add a light on or over the table. It was difficult to see as we were studying our maps and brochures and also dark in the morning as we ate there.
Highly recommend.
Everything was clean. Staff was very friendly. Wish they serve breakfast earlier than 7 am. We had to travel at least 30 minutes to any of the events. Also the room could use a kuerig instead of a coffee pot. Overall the stay was good.
Great property! We loved the private cabin (#209). Everything was very clean. Also - we greatly appreciated the fact that they allowed us to shorten our stay by 2 days due to unforeseen circumstances that kept us in our previous destination for 2 extra days. They didn’t have to be flexible, but they were and they refunded us 2 nights. In all honesty, we wish we could’ve stayed the 4 nights we originally planned on staying. Loved this property!
My wife and our grand daughter stayed 2 nights in one of the duplex cabins. This was our third time to stay at the Rock Crest. The check in lady was very nice and furnished us enough quarters for the coin laundry on premises. The room was nice and clean, the beds were comfortable. We made our own coffee and did not go to the breakfast which was offered. The family in the other duplex were very nice folks. The cabin was convenient to Custer State Park and Mount Rushmore. My grand daughter enjoyed the animals in the park, bison, prairie dogs, deer, pronghorn antelopes, wild turkeys, and most of all the begging donkeys in the park and also the deer walking around our cabin which she fed and talked to.

Room was clean but dated. Spreads were old and pullout dated. Did not provide fresh linens unless you went to office to ask. Location was excellent for sightseeing.
