You'll have sightseeing choices galore when spending time in Lead. Homestake Gold Mine is a good place to begin here, but there are plenty of other interesting attractions to explore. Deadwood Mountain Grand, Cadillac Jacks Casino, and Tin Lizzie Gaming Resort are near the inactive mine site and will round out your day nicely.

9.2/10 Wonderful! (1,003 reviews)

Parking was fine! Room was clean, however it was not consistent In housekeeping. Breakfast was not the best because they only had sausage no bacon any day-we were there for a week. Everyone on staff was friendly & nice, especially Karissa!!

8.6/10 Excellent! (426 reviews)

For the price, I felt this hotel was very cheap in every way. Breakfast quality was subpar and the same for cleanliness of the room and hotel. For older people, there is no elevator. I had better experience at smaller motels but then the price was half the cost this hotel changed.
