Smaller than appears in Pictures

The cabin was great for our purpose since we weren’t there much. The spaces are much smaller than they appear in the pictures. The beds are very soft -too soft for me!

Wonderful Property Near Everything in Black Hills

Stayed with my husband and our 2yo and 3yo. Location was perfect. Max 1-1.5hrs drive, but most sites 25-30 mins. The kids loved the playground, seeing the ducks on the lake, and the “new house”. The adults loved the cottage setup, ease of check in/out process, info provided prior to stay and upon arrival, and the friendliness of everyone there. Would highly recommend and look forward to returning with the family again.

Great Cottage

My mom and I stayed here for three nights while we visited Mount Rushmore and Rapid City. The two bedroom cottage was clean and spacious with a nice kitchen and bathroom. There was covered parking and a nice deck with grill. I recommend these cottages.

Centrally located b/n Mt. Rushmore and Badlands

We enjoyed our stay here, particularly since it was in a conveniently located between Mount Rushmore and the Badlands. The cabin was rustic and homey in a way that reminded me of my grandma’s home (in a good). It was wonderful to have two bedrooms, a living room, and a kitchen instead of cramming our family of four into a two beds and a bucket hotel room for the same price.

So nice here

Lake Park Campground and Cottages provide the perfect location on the western edge of Rapid City for all your sightseeing in western South Dakota. Almost everything you might want to see is within a 30-60 minute drive. Very convenient. The cottage we stayed in was extremely clean with very comfortable beds, more than adequate linens provided, and a fairly well-equipped kitchen. There is an outside grill which we did not use but all cottages seem to have them. There is a microwave in the kitchen but ours was on top of the fridge so, without stating the obvious, it is not usable. Not sure why someone thought to put it there but there it was, over my head. The bathroom was spotlessly clean and the water pressure in the shower was great, with plenty of hot water. It is a little tight in there because the full-size water heater is right by the sink but after all, it is a cottage and you make due. The tub did not drain well, which was unpleasant, but you just shower faster. Our favorite part of our stay here was the deer that greeted us every morning and every evening. At one point we counted a dozen coming through. They are very sweet and seem to be used to having folks around. This well-maintained property provides a very clean, quiet and relaxing vacation spot which we enjoyed and highly recommend.

Family of four

This was a cute cabin with a lot of space for 4 adults. Loved the patio with gas grill included. Also this particular property also had a car port. Property was kept up very as well and everyone we spoke with here was very friendly and helpful. Only complaint is the hide away bed had a very thin mattress so my adult kids took turns sleeping on the couch folded up. We would stay here again.
