State Game Lodge at Custer State Park Resort

We stayed in classic Queen room 114 on the first floor for several nights. The view was nice in that we saw horned sheep and a buffalo out on the front lawns from our room twice. It was a little noisy having someone above us, so I would recommend getting a higher floor facing the lawn. The hotel itself is in a great location for seeing wildlife and looks great from the outside. The inside was a little dated and on the smaller side. It was nice being able to hop in our car and drive the wildlife loop whenever we wanted to though. Overall, if you plan to visit Custer State Park more than one day, this may be the place for you.

The description of 'park view' rooms was misleading; our two rooms should have been more appropriately called 'parking lot view.' For the price we paid per room, the reality was disappointing.

The location is ideal but the rooms need to be updated and the food is limited to just their dining room.

It was a crazy checkin because of the Buffalo RoundUp. Front desk receptionist was wonderful. Highly recommend dinner at the restaurant. The elk ravioli is a winner.

Location is fantastic. Scenery is super beautiful. However the hotel needs substantial improvement. Bathrooms need renovation, exhaust fan in bathroom extremely noisy, rust on heat registers, paint peeling from wall, etc. For a $190/ per night you expect much better.

Our t v. Didnt work and a lamp was out but when we told the front desk "on labor day" they had it fixed in a jiffy. The area is beautiful and the breakfast buffet awesome

The room was clean but there was paint peeling in the bathroom and on another wall. The beds were a bit firm. The tv had a poor picture. No Wi-Fi. It’s a neat place but is in desperate need of some updates. We were given instructions on how to find our room but they weren’t very clear. And when we got lost looking we were assisted after being told “ I told you to go around the building” when I replied, it’s dark and I have never been here before I only saw one parking lot” I got a mph. Parking lot isn’t well indicated.

The room reeked of Pinesol to the point it gave me a migraine! I had to leave the windows open all night and it was still bad! The carpet in my room actually felt greasy to walk on! Bathroom was very small & so was the room

It was fun to see the historical section of the lodge. The restaurant is top notch! Ask for Doc to be your server. The hotel style rooms are updated but since they are so old, it is a cramped space.
