We stayed in a star gazing tent, and it was awesome. The clouds cleared and we saw stars and satellites! The property is very cute with lots of hiking trails. Lots of activities offered like s'mores and music. The tent was clean and it was nice to have hot water to wash our hands and take showers. The bed was comfy. We had so much fun exploring and taking in the sights!
The wood burning stoves leak smoke into the tent. We heard smoke alarms going off in other tents throughout the night. We called for maintenance, but they were very busy so we cancelled the call, and bundled up when the temps dropped over night. Not a big deal for us, but we did not want to be jolted awake by an alarm so we "toughed it out". Minor feedback for an overall lovely stay.

Loved it! One of the most special stays of our road trip and I will try to stay in more Under Canvas venues in future trips to the US. It was especially fun for our 8 year old daughter. The tents are very comfortable and we were a short walk to the showers and toilets which were cleaned every 5 mins it felt like. Great restaurant with good choices for breakfast and dinner. Lots of games to play and also free s'mores to roast. So nice to be in all that nature. and very close to Mount Rushmore which was why we came.
The only thing is they add 50 cents or a dollar every time we charged something to our room. Something which wasn't mentioned when we arrived.

We loved the location of this hotel, the gorgeous view of Mt Rushmore and the Black Hills from the terrace and the well appointed tents. We also really enjoyed eating at the hotel - good options, friendly service, nice outdoor seating and a range of board games to play while you wait. Great atmosphere. My kids loved that every night there were materials for s'mores to make at the various fire pits around the property.
The hotel felt understaffed and we were often waiting for someone to appear to help us with check in, check out, ask about activities they offered or other things related to front desk. I felt the price was a bit high for what was offered.

Everything- the tents are SO cozy, beds and blankets were very comfortable, the facility provided everything we could‘ve needed (extra blankets, usb-c portable charger, towels, etc), beautiful views, main area was super cute and fun with lots of games and things to do, cute mt rushmore viewing area under the stars, super helpful and nice staff, safe from animals
the zipper to the tent is a little noisy when you need to go use the community bathroom in the middle of the night, but this can be avoided by booking the tent with a bathroom inside

A great novelty to stay in a tent / cool camp like this. Greta fun with kids and a super base for visiting Mount Rushmore. The fire pits with smore kits were great, lovely food in the main tent and great views of the M Rushmore.
Can get very hot in day and very cold at night in the tent… advise you bring some firefighters / proper gas click lighter to manage the fire if needed.

We loved being able to see the stars as we slept and we only stayed for a couple days this time but we plan on booking for a longer duration next time.
Next time we will definitely request one king mattress as opposed to 2 mattresses pushed together since my partner and I enjoy cuddling and one of us kept falling into the center divide between the mattresses haha.

We ate dinner at the restaurant, the food was very tasty and very fresh. The atmosphere of the entire place was very comforting, we were traveling for our 2 week family vacation, only wish we could have stayed longer, but it was the perfect place to be.
Can't think of anything other than it misted rain and we couldn't see Mt Rushmore light up, but we wouldn't change a thing.

Very cool experience. Staff was kind and accomodating to a special request.
The three little lanterns weren't quite enough light. There was a hole and a hornet nest above our bed, luckily it didn't rain and we didn't see any bees.

Great glamping experience! Enjoyed the private bathroom arrangements within the tent. Very nice and helpful staff. Excellent dining tent! Perfect location for Mount Rushmore in attractions around in the area.
There is no electricity, but we did not mind because the charging blocks that were provided did the trick.

While the location, and view of Mount Rushmore was mind boggling, the staff is what truly sets this location apart! The entire crew is not only very professional, and knowledgeable but genuinely good natured and kind! Our entire stay felt as if we had our own private staff! HIGHLY recommend Under Cover @ Mount Rushmore!
Matches were soggy because of the rain that area experienced over the previous weeks. Matches should be sealed in an airtight container.
