This property was in a great location. We enjoyed our stay.

We were a family of thirteen( including five kiddos (Under the age of 6) and this home met all our needs. Located at the end of the road, the property has spacious back yard and the home is designed with a separate suite upstairs with fully equipped kitchen sitting area and spacious bedroom and bathroom
Downstairs offers theee bedrooms, two which are quite spacious. Living room accommodated us very well. This cabin is very close to the lake and there are areas to fish, which our family really enjoyed. There iare wildlife sightings of deer frequently and we even saw a blue heron! Also storks and an eagle too.
My only suggestions include updating the kitchen pots and pans, as a few were in need of replacement and to add additional silverware and steak knives. Also, the stairway going to the upstairs are open on one side and not safe for little ones to navigate. Offering a baby gate along with adding some type of wall/railing would solve this problem. We were able to block entry to steps with furniture/pillows but kids still managed to sneak through at times. In summary, I would return to this place in a heartbeat and will be recommending to others who are contemplating a trip to this beautiful state! Thank you for making our trip such a wonderful one!

Family gathered from several states to visit the South Dakota National Parks/Mt Rushmore/Crazy Horse. This location was fantastic - the house was clean and well laid out for family & kids. There is a playground just across the driveway and the lake is nearby. It was also a great home base for day trips out to the nearby parks (Black Hills, Mt Rushmore, Custard State Park, Crazy Horse), which we toured during the day.
The check in process was smooth. The home was quiet and in good repair. It was a great spot!

All of our family except for one meet there for the weekend. Rapid City is about half way for everyone so we planned for a fun weekend. We all enjoyed our stay at the house. The deck was great in the evenings for barbecues and watching the deer. The guy that checked us in was just great and helpful. The kids enjoyed the playground and the paddle boat. We will be meeting there again.

70th birthday celebration
We had a wonderful time celebrating my husband's birthday there.
House was very clean and spacious. Deer were seen many times which my grandchildren loved. Scott and staff were very nice and only a phone call away if we needed anything.

Great family retreat
We were in town for my son’s college graduation. This house was perfect for our extended family of 10 with room to spare. The south side deck was amazing for our gathering. The grill worked amazing. We had plenty of room to spread out and plenty of bathrooms! Plus, added benefit was all the wildlife. I would highly recommend this lodge. It’s adorable!

Beautiful Space
The space was gorgeous. There were plenty of places to sleep and hang out. We had issues finding the place on GPS and so did others when we received deliveries to the address. Overall it was great. We were there for a bike event, and a few bikes staying in other places broke down so on the day we left those people had their bikes taken back and rode home with me. That morning I was accused of having 20 people staying there the whole time which was not true and left a sour taste in my mouth on an already stressful day.

Spacious cabin
This cabin had plenty of room for our group of 11. We loved the area, the lake, the deer going through our front yard. We enjoyed supper on the nice large deck. And I loved that it was right in Rapid City, close to so many things. We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect home for family gathering
We were a family of ten including 6 adults & 4 children from 2-5. The cabin worked well for us all. Plenty of room yet cozy. Nice quiet area. The kids enjoyed the playground & wildlife on the lake. Close to many attractions. Would definitely love to stay here again.

Great cabin/lodge
A wonderful place to stay. The campground is on the edge of town but is still quiet. The Deer Glen Lodge is on the edge of the campground and is relatively private. The lodge has plenty of space and is well stocked. All of the people I dealt with from the campground were very nice and helpful.

Black hills vacation
Black hills vacation—Staying in Rapid City was a great spot for us because we did things in Custer and close to Deadwood so this was a nice central location. The property was great only downside was that the water heaters couldn’t keep up with demand. The outdoor space was great the garage was nice and handy for the kayaks my family brought would’ve been a good place to store bikes if we brought those overall we were very happy with the accommodations.

Family Reunion
Our group size was significantly smaller due to the current conditions, so there were only 4 adults that stayed. However, had the entire group been with us we would have been more than comfortable. Nice layout, very clean, great location.

4th of July Family Vacation
It was a great vacation! Best place we have stayed at after several years of vacationing in SD! The only thing that would have made it better is if they offered a discount for so many nights, like a flat rate for a week instead of per night.

Perfect
Family gathering for our anniversary. The house was clean, very comfortably appointed, and had a well equipped kitchen. Location was ideal for us with four children included. Really was a delightful week made even better by the excellent accommodations and the friendly staff. Highly recommend this house and this resort.

Nice and spacious
We had a group of 12 that stayed here. It was a spacious house with plenty of beds. Pretty dated style and decor, but it was adequate for our needs. Only disappointment was that check out was 9 a.m.

What a beatiful Cabin!
Absolutely beautiful area, the cabin is surrounded by plenty of lush grass for playing. There are two kitchens stocked with anything you may need for cooking and entertaining. The upstairs offers privacy for younger families or children. The wrap around deck offers plenty of grills and seating for enjoying family time meals. The campground itself is in a great quiet location central to every attraction in the area. Another plus is the grocery store and down town attractions are just minutes away. The cleanliness is impeccable and the staff, including the owners Scott and Sherry, as well as the manager Chace, (and Monte in the office! Very knowledgable about the area and places you should visit) are more than accommodating should you need anything during your stay. I highly recommend this campground and this cabin in particular for family get togethers or a rental to share during the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally!

Home away from home...only better
Deer Glen has everything you will need to make your vacation as effortless as possible. Pots, pans, dishes, towels, and all appliances make this an ideal home base for a vacation to the Black Hills. My family and I found the facilities to be spotless with upscale heavy log furniture in the living, dining and sleeping areas. The mattresses were comfortable and we always had more than enough space to seat everyone at the dining table (two big benches on either side, with chairs on the ends; there's also a picnic table and more chairs outside). There's an expansive deck outside and a huge green grassy area in the front of the lodge where my kids enjoyed hours of playtime. The lake is just a short walk across a cute little bridge and the playground was also just along the way. (Great playground by the way!) It's a really quiet area set back from the rest of the cabins and we always had deer walking through the yard. We even got to see eagles resting in the branches near the cabin. Overall an amazing stay and we'd highly recommend this property to families or groups (lots of sleeping space!).

Beautiful Black Hills vacation!
We rented the Deer Glen Lodge for a family vacation that included 7 adults and 7 children (4 households).With two living room areas (upstairs and downstairs) we had plenty of space for adults to visit and kids to play. The house was clean and the staff was helpful and friendly. We would definitely visit again!

Exactly What We Wanted!
We just left here today and I wanted to make sure I gave it the excellent review it deserves! The campground was quiet, clean and great location for what we had planned (crazy horse, bear country, keystone).
We stayed in the Deer Glenn Lodge and it was clean, quaint, and very spacious! Plenty of room for 8 adults and 7 kids. The two grills and deck made it easy and relaxing for the whole family to enjoy being outside. It was a great vacation and Deer Glenn Lodge had a lot to do with that! And Monty was very friendly and helpful!
Great place to stay!
