Ryan and Bailey provided excellent service. They do not take reservations, and lodge guests do not receive priority seating, but you can call ahead to be added to the waitlist.

While the breakfasts were satisfactory, the dinner fell short of our expectations. Upon our arrival, we opted for the prime rib and baked potato for my wife, which was decent but not outstanding. I chose a fish special, which was walleye baked in breadcrumbs and pesto with vegetables. Unfortunately, the pesto lacked any discernible flavor, and the fish was overly bony. The mixed vegetables seemed overcooked and lacking in taste. In contrast, both breakfasts were simple but enjoyable. The first breakfast featured a ham, cheddar, and mushroom omelet with sourdough toast and potatoes, while the second included a breakfast burrito and hotcakes with eggs, meat, and potatoes. Overall, I would rate our dining experience at this restaurant as average, with the breakfast offerings and prime rib being the highlights.

I ordered the sampler platter while my husband indulged in the large porterhouse steak. The service was efficient and the option to call ahead was convenient. We called 45 minutes before our arrival and our table was ready within minutes.

The restaurant staff was very friendly and they serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner with a wide variety to choose from. The only downfall was that the pool was full of bugs and we were looking forward to that. I still highly recommend!

The rooms were spacious and we were only 8 minutes away from Mount Rushmore which was the main reason we chose the hotel. The restaurant was delicious but beware that it can get very busy as soon as they open for dinner. The only downside was when we went to the pool which looked like it was not cleaned and had lots of bugs in it. I looked to see if there was a net to clean the pool but there wasn’t so we didn’t stay. The staff was friendly and I definitely recommend!
