Top Bear Country USA Hotel Reviews

ClubHouse Hotel & Suites - Rapid City

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful hotel. Very clean. Rooms were spacious. View from the back of the lobby was beautiful."

Pine Haven Lodging

10/10 Excellent

"The cabin was very clean and cute! It was extremely nice to have a small stovetop and other appliances. The office workers were very nice and easy check in and out. The location was perfect a little out side of the main city but close enough to get groceries and see Mount Rushmore."

Rockerville Lodge & Cabins

10/10 Excellent

"Nice place quiet friendly I would definitely stay here again"

Wildlife Estates. Spacious 4-BR, Bonus-Game Rm, HotTub, Garage

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed the property, it was very clean and had everything that we needed for a worry free stay. Especially enjoyed the pool table."

Peaceful and private with quick access to all the Black Hills has to offer!

10/10 Excellent

"We stayed here for the weekend with our kids and another family to visit the Black Hills and it was perfect! Great communication from the host."

Unique Barn Retreat by the Hills

10/10 Excellent

"Rental was as advertised, clean, cozy, and great place to come back to each day after exploring black hills region."

Secluded Creekside cabin with access to the best swimming hole on Spring Creek

8/10 Good

"This is a great location, a beautiful secluded house close to major highway (which you will NEVER hear). There are trails to hike on the property that allow to enjoy the beauty of the streams and mountains. The owner is available and great communicator.It was a great base camp for us to see the area. Easy to get to and very relaxing."

HTR Black Hills

10/10 Excellent

"We loved our stay! It was very clean and had everything we needed. The view from our cabins was excellent to see the deer and wildlife! Will come back sometime in the future!"

Fun Historic Cabin with the Best Swimming Hole on Spring Creek

10/10 Excellent

"This is one of the most memorable vacation rentals I have ever stayed in. The property is far more than the already-large front and back yards. The actual Strato Bowl, creek, trails and surrounding grounds are open for walking and exploring, making it feel like a private mountain retreat.The home sits at the end of a winding gravel road down into the forest and creek area, creating wonderful seclusion. Sitting on the back porch overlooking the grassy yard, creek and swimming hole, you feel like you have your own multi-million-dollar retreat. Other than birds and rustling leaves, it is remarkably quiet.The home is older but thoughtfully updated and very comfortable. The kitchen is exceptionally well stocked, the bathroom clean and supplied with everything needed, and there are books and games for relaxing days.Owner Ken greeted us personally and showed us around. He grew up in this home, and his pride and care for the property are obvious. He even created a trail map with photos of destinations and wildlife.We wanted more than a place to sleep—we wanted somewhere to read, walk, hike, think and unwind. This was exactly that. Of the dozens of vacation rentals I’ve stayed in, this is at the very top of my list.Scenic, secluded, majestic, inviting, idyllic, warm, comfortable, accessible, and deeply peaceful. It is the rare vacation rental where staying at the property can be every bit as enjoyable as going out to see the surrounding attractions."
