A unique experience if you are tired of staying in the hotels. Huge step up from camping but so is the cost. This property was within short drive to the center of Keystone and Mt Rushmore. The staff is very enthusiastic and tries their best to be accommodating and helpful. Some of the amenities could use some improvement.

Short stay at Mount Rushmore
We stayed two nights here while visiting Mount Rushmore (part of a multi-state road trip), two adults and two children. These tents are so fun! Our first day, temps were in the triple digits and the two fans offered were pretty small. We opted to go have dinner somewhere cool. They said it wouldn't cool off much, but it really did! Sleeping wasn't a hassel at all! And the beds were some of the most comfortable beds we've ever slept in. Staff were all amazing, informative, helpful, personable... we enjoyed speaking with everyone we came across. Kids really enjoyed the free smores kits! Our second night, there was a good storm. We even stayed out in the first bit of rain just to make smores! It was really fun listening to the storm in the tents too! The place was extremely clean for being tents, too. Highly recommend a fun experience like this!

Under Canvas is an experience like no other. Grounds and the breathtaking views were stunning. Amenities were everything you could ask for from a ‘glamping’ experience. Star gazer tent was perfect - it rained during our stay and the rain on the roof was relaxing - once the clouds cleared the stars were so clear and bright and made the experience. The bed and in tent amenities were perfect. The staff was beyond excellent. They take you on a tour when you arrive and go over everything in detail you need to know during your stay, then they assist you with loading up your luggage and take you by golf cart to your tent. They offer complimentary s’mores - unfortunately due to the thunderstorms we weren’t able to take advantage of this but such a nice touch. This won’t be our last stay. If you’re unsure because of the price - it’s so worth it. My boyfriend and I are so glad we did this.

This wasn't for me. I should have researched it further before booking. I thought it would be ideal for a couple looking for a quiet, luxury getaway but it was mostly families with small children. It was not quiet at all. The staff I encountered was fairly new to the job and did not provide the level of customer service I expected from something described as "luxury". We ordered a bottle of wine and received a different, more expensive bottle which we exchanged but they still charged us for the more expensive bottle. Had to speak with 4 different people and in the end they corrected the receipt but still billed us the higher amount. There were many little things that just didn't fit with the luxury label - no bucket of ice was provided to keep the wine chilled, no one cleared dishes the entire time we were seated in the cafe, the board games were missing a substantial amount of pieces, the person who showed us around the site mumbled and seemed completely disinterested in her job, and the evening activities ended at 6:30pm. I expected better. On the plus side, the tent was clean and the bed was comfortable but if you are over 6 feet tall, you'll need to sleep diagonally.
