We stayed at KbarS during our trip to South Dakota. The property is stunning, the staff are all friendly and helpful. There was even an outdoor hot tub between lodges that had a view of Mount Rushmore. So glad we chose this resort

The hotel is just two minutes from Keystone Very nice location. The grounds are nice. Lots of deer and wild turkeys. Our room had a lanai and a lttle view of mount rushmore. You could see Georges head. About 5 minutes from Mount Rushmore. Truly a quiet and great location. We stayed in mid October. Things were going to be shutting down at end of month. The Pub/Bar was closed for season. The morning breakfast was good, staff were great.

We loved the area. The location to Mt. Rushmore and other area attractions was perfect. The room was wonderful, the view amazing (especially being able to see Mt. Rushmore from our room), and the solitude of the area with wildlife was above what we expected. Staff members were polite, helpful, and courteous. We would definitely return.

The location is excellent, the property is close to Mount Rushmore and Keystone Town area. The pillows could be replaced with more firmer ones.
