Top Sylvan Lake Hotel Reviews

EverSpring Inn & Suites

10/10 Excellent

"Great location, friendly staff, warm cookies on arrival, breakfast included was yummy too! Only thing we had a problem with was no elevator? I know it’s on 2 floors but we were on the 2nd floor and our luggage was very heavy to have to carry up a flight of stairs. Maybe not a problem for younger folk or light travelers but it was hard for us."

Lodge at Palmer Gulch

10/10 Excellent

"😊"

Cozy cabin near all the attractions in the Heart of the Hills! Pet friendly!

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay here! It was very comfortable and a great base for our adventures."

Secluded Stay in a Wonderful Creekside Getaway

8/10 Good

"Enjoyed the open spaces"

Grandpa’s Place. Exclusive, Stunning, Private Log Home. Firepit & Pond.

10/10 Excellent

"This was a beautiful place to share with our kids and grandkids. Every family grouping had their own bathroom. We all enjoyed the paddle boat and kayak. The dining table fit all 10 of us very comfortably. Lots of extras in the kitchen. All slept well in the peace and quiet and enjoyed the phenomenal view of the stars from the deck. It seems so off the beaten path but it was yet close enough to nearby tourist activities. Joy was easy to reach and addressed our slight issue quickly. We felt so blessed to have this home available for our use!"

The Hynes Cabin – A Spacious Renovated 1925 Classic with Stunning Views

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful time at the cabin, we had a couple small things come up but the host was very accommodating. Would highly recommend this place!"

Tenderfoot Creek Cabin | 2 Bed, 1 Bath

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the cabin. Location wasn't very clear that there would be loud highway noise. We were constantly on the go but if we wanted to hang out on the deck or yard it was very noisy. All amenities were used and worked great except the living room tv but that wasn't a deal breaker and I'm sure was fixed by the next reservation! We will recommend this place and the Black hills retreat company to all of our friends and family! Thank you 😊"

Rustic Rock Haven - Horses Welcome

10/10 Excellent

"Great cabin with great location to visit the Black Hills, Custer State Park, and Mt Rushmore. Hosts are great, and made us feel at home. Perfect location if you are traveling with pets as there is excellent area for them to safely get exercise."

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms were spacious and comfortable. Just was very organized and appreciated her quick response. Views are top notch. Attention to detail with the landscaping was an added benefit. Loved our stay."
