Beautiful property, very clean, friendly staff, great location away from the hustle and bustle of Keystone, yet just a 2-minute drive down to Keystone. Breakfast was good, not great, I guess I expected a little more - it was comparable to what you'd get at a typical hotel chain. The restaurant was very good - wish we would have eaten there more than one night. We loved the little hike around the property, with the little bridge and the deer we saw every day. The hot tub was an amazing way to end the day, with a view of Mount Rushmore in the distance, especially after dark with it lit up. It was very quiet - not the typical hotel where you can hear people above you walking or out in the hallways. We will definitely stay here again if we come back to the area.
