This wasn't for me. I should have researched it further before booking. I thought it would be ideal for a couple looking for a quiet, luxury getaway but it was mostly families with small children. It was not quiet at all. The staff I encountered was fairly new to the job and did not provide the level of customer service I expected from something described as "luxury". We ordered a bottle of wine and received a different, more expensive bottle which we exchanged but they still charged us for the more expensive bottle. Had to speak with 4 different people and in the end they corrected the receipt but still billed us the higher amount. There were many little things that just didn't fit with the luxury label - no bucket of ice was provided to keep the wine chilled, no one cleared dishes the entire time we were seated in the cafe, the board games were missing a substantial amount of pieces, the person who showed us around the site mumbled and seemed completely disinterested in her job, and the evening activities ended at 6:30pm. I expected better. On the plus side, the tent was clean and the bed was comfortable but if you are over 6 feet tall, you'll need to sleep diagonally.

Chose tent with king bed and private bathroom. Perfect! Used the wood stove as temp went down to 36 at night. Tent stayed toasty but hubby had to add wood during night. S’mores were a nice treat. View of My Rushmore awesome. Staff very pleasant. Food in restaurant limited but good although especially breakfast very pricey.

If you’re into camping, this is a great way to get introduced to it or go “glamping“. Loved our stay there, the first night, though was really cold. They have heaters in the tents, but they use the local wood, which is pine and it burns out really quickly so I had to wake up every couple of hours to restock the fire. If I would’ve just stayed under the covers, though, I would’ve felt fine. The food at the restaurant is so so but there are wonderful hiking trails and so many different things to do. It truly was a great way to visit Mount Rushmore.
