My favorite places to stay in the Southern/Central Hills. The cabins are cozy, quiet, and always clean. This time I brought my side by side, and parked my trailer down below. Never worried about its safety.

It was so nice getting away from the usual hotel experience. A quaint cabin in a wooded area. We sat out on the deck and enjoyed some conversation while listening to the birds chirp. We highly recommend.

The room was very clean and had a beautiful deck with table and chairs. I loved the fact that it was like camping with the nature of it all without the fuss. The only reason I gave it a 4 was because of the noise of the shower next door. We got a cabin that was attached to another and when they took a shower the next morning it was really loud.

This resort was not what I expected I read the reviews before I booked but let me tell you it’s not all what they say first the coffee pot was broken second the fitted sheet kept coming off so I was sleeping on plastic third the shower is very small and no water pressure fourth the walls are so thin you can hear everything from the cabin next door and the people next to us kept talking so we couldn’t sleep or get rest if you want peace and quiet do not rent those cabins pay a little extra and stay in a nice hotel even if you have to travel to get to Mount Rushmore

Restaurants and shopping are down and around the corner. The cabin appeared new. Perfect stop when visiting Mount Vernon. Beware of local fog overnight so sleep in nothing to see until it lifts. GPS will take you to a business site. Keep going to the new camp on the right. Friendly staff are available for questions if needed. Would stay again.
