Be hopefully you don’t get a first floor location i thought there was a stampede above us at 5am. Other than that the bed was pretty comfy the orange comforter kind of screams at you but I flipped it to the calm green side. Also weird smell when you walk in. But nice it’s close to Mount Rushmore.

Clean, quiet, and great location! Great stay!

Check-in was a breeze, and the staff was helpful and accommodating of our needs. The room was clean and the bedding fresh, the bathroom and towels were bright and white, and the room was spacious for two. The location was convenient to the airport and to Mount Rushmore, and had good hiking nearby. All-in-all, an excellent stay! Good job, Rockerville Lodge and Cabins!

Great bungalow in the perfect location!

Enjoyed a three night stay in a bungalow. Great location as it was 20 minutes to Mt Rushmore and 20 minutes to Rapid City. Restaurant and Saloon across the street with live music at night. Fire pit area was also a big hit with the kids as well as the small playground. Area was safe and well kept. The bungalow while cozy was a great value and the hosts were helpful, funny, and accommodating. Simple continental breakfast, the brownies were a huge hit. Overall, loved the spot and would definitely recommend while visiting the area.
