Custer State Park

Custer State Park, Black Hills

 
Custer State Park may not be a national park yet it has nothing to envy. This 71,000-acre (28,700 hectare) stretch of land is home to craggy peaks and one of America's last grasslands. It boats scenic drives and hiking trails; clear blue lakes and charming lodges. Pronghorn, elk, bighorn sheep, mountain goats, prairie dogs and burros all call this park home. As do 1,500 American buffalo. But what make's this South Dakota state park a great family destination is its proximity to Black Hills attractions. Wind Cave National Park, Jewel Cave National Monument, and Mount Rushmore National Memorial ... Read Moreare all within 15 miles.

The historic State Game Lodge is a pleasant surprise. Not only is this brick and wood hotel situated in the heart of Custer State Park, it combines past and present, offers comfort on the prairie, and the restaurant boasts more than hamburgers. But make no mistake State Game Lodge is not a resort. The only organized activities are those offered by the park. The cabins have fire pits but there is no swimming pool. Area attractions are a 30 minutes drive. NB: The lodge rooms are stately. The motel rooms are simple. The rustic cabins are spacious.
