We attended a gorgeous wedding at the lodge last weekend. I will start with the journey. It is about an hour from the Rapid City Regional Airport and very easy to find. A short stop at Mt. Rushmore can also be achieved along the way. The road to get to the lodge is very windy so take your time on...

We capped off our South Dakota visit with a three-night stay in a lovely log cabin at Sylvan Lake Lodge at Custer State Park. Lovely log cabin? Definitely. Very clean and comfy, kitchenette, new bathroom and even a flat screen TV! Wilderness camping 2011!! There's even housekeeping service! A bit small but adequate for us. Plus it was a stone's...

The Lodge has a very nice setting looking over Sylvan Lake. However, the trees have grown a great deal since the lodge was built so the views of the Lake are less than spectacular. I enjoyed my stay and would go back. The food was fine; service a little slow

Thank you for your review. Sylvan Lake Lodge is a great place to start your visit to Custer State Park, and the Black Hills. A lot of the trees between the lodge and the lake have been removed this year due to the Pine Beetles. While bad for the forest it has been good for the view. We hope that...

Stayed in 407. Clean, comfortable and private. Only drawbacks, windows were a bit drafty and all the smoke didn't go up the chimney. Location was perfect for touring the entire area.

Thank you for your review. Sylvan Lake Lodge is a great place to start your visit to Custer State Park, and the Black Hills. Before the rocks get hot on those chimneys they tend to backdraft, and I am sorry for any discomfort. We hope that you have the oppurtunity to visit us again.

We stayed at Sylvan Lake Lodge on September 27, 2011. I read that the lodge had updated their room in 2008 so, I was not ready for what I saw. We were on the main level of the lodge--the first floor. The hall carpet looked old and rundown. When we entered our room, my heart fell. This must have been...

Recently attended a wedding at Custer State Park and stayed in a lodge room. The lodge itself is not too big but was very nice. Beautiful common areas that looked just like a lodge should look. It appears the rooms were updated within the past few years and were nice although small. Everything we needed was in the room though...

Been reading trip advisor reviews for years and felt it was necessary to to post my first review to forewarn future guests of our experience. My wife and I stayed here from Sept. 19-21st. First of all, the grounds, the lodge, our cabin, the setting, the view, were beautiful, rustic, historic, clean, cozy, and met our expectations. Now the things...

I stayed here with my wife's family recently for a wedding. It was, in my opinion, way overpriced. We stayed in a 3-Bedroom cabin. It was dirty and VERY old. Reminded me of an old trailer house. Smelled like an old trailer house, and one bedroom had NO outlets in it. Not one, there was a lamp and an alarm...

We stayed 3 nights in a cabin at Sylvan Lake Lodge in Custer State Park. What an unbelievably beautiful park. Our cabin was comfortable, certainly nothing fancy, but suited our purposes. Our bathroom door wouldn't close all the way, but after a quick request at the front desk before dinner, it was working fine by the time we returned to...
