Rock Crest Lodge And Cabins

Nice and clean, walking distance to downtown, cozy beds. The rooms in the lodge have mini kitchens- microwave and fridge , there’s a community grill on site too. The rooms do not come with anything ie dishes, silverware etc so if you are planning to cook, you need to ask for it in the office. They supply you with styrofoam plates and plastic cutlery- not exactly what I was planning. The breakfast in the morning is OK- no gluten free options which is a bummer.

Husband and I just wrapped up 4-day stay at motel (a.k.a. “lodge”) unit (bedroom, bathroom, front room with sofa, small efficiency counter w/sink, microwave, cupboards). We had stayed at Rock Crest about 10 years ago and really liked it, but it had been newly remodeled at that time. With those fond memories, we decided to jump in and sign up for 4 days this time. Wish we had only committed to 1 day so we could have moved on. Place needs some TLC, inside and out. Our entry door had gaps all around it - weatherstripping was almost worn away. Carpet looked dirty - we did not walk around w/o shoes on. Shower curtain was moldy at bottom. Bath fan looked like it had never been cleaned. Opened microwave and it was not clean- I wiped it down. My own personal suggestions - update the old outdated bedspreads and replace the old musty curtains w/modern blinds so you don’t feel like you are in a dark cave. A general update (and cleaning) of the unit(s) would not take that much $$$ and make you feel like you are getting what you paid for. It was ridiculously expensive for what you get. Have to say that that the location is great, the people who work there are very nice and the continental breakfast was great.

We loved the spacious rooms and the balcony of the cabins. The balcony was another outdoor room where we ate breakfast and played card games at night. It was a great fit for our family of 6. My kids liked playing on the surrounding rocks by the cabins. The rooms and grounds were clean. There was a lot of stairs up to our cabin, so if you have trouble with stairs there are also smaller rooms by the office. We liked the outdoor pool and used it both nights. Internet was fast, I had do do a work video call, but it worked better on the balcony than in the cabin. Felt like a small cabin in the woods but right on the edge and main drag of Custer. We would stay here again.

We had everything we needed and all of the employees were very nice! Even the music in the lobby started our day off right. It was nice that you could get a state park pass from them if you stayed 3 days.

We loved our overnight stay at Rockcrest Lodge! We wish we could have stayed longer. The room was spacious and clean. We enjoyed the pool (although odd that there was no shallow end). Staff were friendly and helpful. We loved dining at Custer Wolf in town (a short walk). Lots to do nearby. We would definitely recommend!
