George S. Mickelson Trail, South Dakota hotel rooms at the Independent

"I think this is the best place to stay! Very comfortable beds and pillows. The water pressure is insane- its like a spa! I'm picky about cleanliness and this place was spotless. You can easily walk to downtown in 5 minutes to eat breakfast or dinner. We didn't eat the free breakfast, but I did get coffee every morning to walk to downtown and it was good. The ice cream pie at the Alpine Inn (in town) is soooo good! We got it to go twice and ate it in front of the fire outside the hotel. Tip: if you eat dinner at the Alpine Inn- go later like 8pm- we only had to wait 20 minutes but at 5:00 the wait is 3 hours!!! Also, highly recommend the thai fusion restaurant, Lemongrass. You can walk to it from the hotel and they have live music on their patio on Friday and Saturday. The food is so good!"
