Nice room. We had booked a mountain view and balcony which would have been excellent had the weather not been cold and misty (but the hotel cannot control the weather!). The view was of Mt Rushmore and we did get a glimpse of a profile of one of the Presidents. We had dinner at the Bar and really enjoyed the Chicken Club Sandwich and Pulled Pork Sandwich.

The. Property is in a beautiful setting. The bed wAs comfortable. F w it a poor rating because there wAs not hot water for shower either in the evening or in the morning. Both of us got sick from dinner at the lodge. Left a day early. Yes, they did try to fix the water temp, but I don't think they knew what they were doing.

We had a great stay at KBar S Lodge! The property is beautifully spread out, offering a peaceful setting and lovely views of Mt. Rushmore from several spots around the lodge. Our room was clean and comfortable, and we appreciated the quiet, scenic surroundings. The complimentary breakfast was decent, with a good variety of options to start the day. The breakfast area itself is cozy and well-maintained, making it a pleasant spot to enjoy a meal before heading out to explore. Would definitely recommend this lodge to anyone visiting the Keystone area!

Great location

Beautiful property close to Mount Rushmore & the town of Keystone. Our room faced Mount Rushmore where we enjoyed sitting on our balcony to take in the monument lit up in the evening. The free breakfast had a great variety of food. The staff very informative and friendly. The room & bathroom older, but clean. My only recommendation for the hotel is to update the rooms. Otherwise, great location on beautiful wooded property.
