Top Pactola Lake Hotel Reviews

Black Forest Inn Bed & Breakfast

10/10 Excellent

"The room was clean. The staff was friendly and accommodating. The hills are so serene and beautiful. Great place to go and reset from the busy life."

Pactola Escape – Spacious Family Cabin Near Lake Pactola

8/10 Good

"Great location in the heart of the Black Hills. 3 couples stayed a week for exploring the trail system via SxS and motorcycles. We were able to jump right on to the trails and head north or south - super convenient. A bit more rustic than what we were expecting, but was clean and plenty of space for 6. Great communication by host. Only negative was the “musty” lower level. Good thing we didn’t need that bedroom or common space."

Fun 3-bedroom cabin Close to Keystone, Hill City, Rushmore, Pactola & ATV Trails

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing week in the black hills! Host was very responsive and the property was as expected. The cabin is up in the hills and it’s a great central location to all the things. We spent a week (checkin Sat - out Sat) at the cabin: Sun - Custer SP, Mon - Badlands NP, Tues - UTV tour through black hills, Wed - Wind Cave, Jewel Cave, Crazy Horse, & MT Rushmore, Thurs - Devil’s Tower, Spearfish Canyon scenic drive, & Deadwood, and Fri - disc golf and bike ride on Mickelson trail.The hot tub was wonderful for after a day of exploring and star gazing in the black hills is great!"

Cozy cabin in the Black Hills. Pet friendly!

10/10 Excellent

"Property is very remote, view of the river out the cabin windows and caught a rainbow trout right down from the cabin. Plenty of beds for all the family, not much of a yard but has a big deck. Also used the smoker for pork loin and worked great. Gaming room a hit with the older grandkids and the adults, we had a couple of smaller ones that would have benefited from having a tv in the house. That’s the only thing bad I have to say!!!"
