The cabin was great! Clean, well stocked and extremely cute. Even though there was multiple cabins around us we still felt like there was a lot of privacy. We would definitely book again when we are in the area.

Recent stay

Everything was fantastic! The approach from the highway is a little quick and we had a few locals get upset that we were slowing for the approach but not much to do about that. From a cybersecurity perspective I would’ve liked to see individual networks for the cabins instead of a single unsecured guest network, but that’s not common for most places, in fairness.

Mount Rushmore vacation

The entire experience was OUTSTANDING, the property manager was very helpful and professional. The location of the property is close enough to the sites while far enough away from other vacationers and tourists. And very quiet. I'd DEFINITELY STAY THERE AGAIN!!!!

Quaint and peaceful location right off the highway outside keystone. It was the perfect size for our family and the hosts gave us great recommendations for the area! We would highly recommend Sylvan Lake along with the lighting ceremony at Mount Rushmore. We definitely hope to come back!

Spring break getaway

We traveled to South Dakota for spring break and we Visited crazy horse, Mt Rushmore, Custer state park, mammoth site in hot springs, the town of lead and deadwood, drove the scenic byway from spearfish south, and ended our trip with a drive through the badlands before we headed home.

I wish we could give this place a 6-star rating! We loved our cozy cabin and all the amenities that came with it. The owners were extremely knowledgeable about the surrounding area and gave us great advice about how to plan our daily excursions. The cabins had absolutely everything we needed to cook our meals at the end of the day. It was very quiet at night and mornings on the porch were beautiful. Highly recommend this place!

Rustic Ridge is an awesome property run by great people. It's centrally located between tons of attractions, great hiking spots and 20 minutes from Rapid City. The cabin was very clean and comfortable, and priced very reasonably. I will definitely be returning.
