Top Custer Hotel Reviews

Best Western Buffalo Ridge Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Custer was a great location to see the SD badlands and Mt Rushmore. Room was clean and comfortable. Staff was nice and helpful. Breakfast was very good."

At The Edge Of Solitude Where Stars Are Bright And The Air Is Fresh

10/10 Excellent

"This property is amazing. The views are wonderful and the organization and care the owner clearly takes for the cabin and the grounds is evident immediately upon arrival. The flexibility to open the windows and have fresh air, or use Heat/AC as needed is also very nice. The cabin is well stocked with everything you need and also incredibly clean. It was a wonderful, relaxing time to stay here. I plan to return!"

Elk Haven Vacation Cabins

10/10 Excellent

"The ElkHaven Resort cabins are convenient to everything around Custer State park. I could get anywhere within 30 minutes. I especially enjoyed the Sylvan Lake area. Only 5 minutes to downtown Custer (and Mt. Rushmore Brewing Co.) The cabin was perfect for a multi-day stay as it was away from the crowds and noise. You could feel alone from the world with an evening drink on the porch. The only negative was the evening sun through the large window made the front room very hot. I highly recommend this place for an out of the way yet convenient stay. I was a solo traveler this trip but it would also be great for families."
