Under Canvas Mount Rushmore

$500/night, guest should expect more luxury experience than just camping. Food is expensive and taste terrible and you have to order at counter and bring back your tray. En-suite Bathroom is dirty and they need change the this faucet. One hand have to hold faucet to keep water running..

Wonderful way to experience nature/peace in a tourist location. Everything you need for a camping experience is provided (including smores) without the hassle. There is also a view of Mt. Rushmore from the back porch so you can see it 'lit up' at night. We had a thunderstorm during our stay and our tent stayed dry and comfortable. They even picked us up in a golf cart when we got stuck under the craft tent during a sudden lightning storm. We had two tents, and one member needed a C-Pap machine and they kindly brough a large charger so they could use it. The only complaint would be the abundant hornets (that were frankly everywhere we went in Southern S. Dakota...so not Under Canvases fault). It sounds like they were particularly aggressive this time of year due to winter coming, but it was annoying to deal with them whenever drink/food was present (even water condensation attracted them). Might be worth putting up more traps around the eating areas during this season.

First of all, we aren’t campers! Our tent was away from the parking so they had to take us to our place by way of a golf cart. Hannah was very helpful and friendly. She even helped carry stuff up the trail! Our wood stove was full of water from a recent storm. Joe was there right away to clean out the water and lay a fire for us. Hannah came back to give us a ride back up to the reception/restaurant area. We had a burger and asparagus which were good. Sat around in the reception area which had comfortable chairs and couches, waiting to see Mount Rushmore lit up at night. Got a ride back to the tent. Bed and linens were very nice. Slept well. We enjoyed our stay and our first camp experience!

Super clean! Seated area to view Mt. Rushmore day & night. Excellent, helpful staff! Amazing food!

Great location! And the food at the restaurant is yummy. Kind of pricey at $15-26 a meal. It was pouring down rain when we got there but they had bingo in the main lobby, that was fun. Very convenient drive to Mount Rushmore. You can enjoy a drink on their outside deck and take in the view of the monument, while also enjoying the stars. Bring a lock if you prefer as the tents do not lock. Not being able to lock up my stuff always makes me uncomfortable. The staff were super friendly and accommodating.

The minute we set foot on the grounds of Under Canvas at Mt. Rushmore, we were transformed into a serene, beautiful and uplifting surrounding. We got greeted by extreme friendly and helpful staff. They showed us around and we stepped on the communal deck overlooking lush green mountains and we saw Mt Rushmore. It was incredible and so breathtaking. Our tent was incredibly spacious, and the beds and linen were extremely comfortable. We slept so well during our stay that I had a hard time to leave the bed every morning. Only the free and very good coffee and the beautiful view at the communal tent made me get up every morning. The bathrooms are very clean and very efficient. We had dinner twice, and both times it very good. We were so impressed with every little detail and thought put in to create this beautiful vacation place. Under Canvas is true to its mission of sustainability and living in harmony with nature. We took advantage of so many activities they offered, like Yoga, making S'mores, the night hike, and painting your own postcards. We loved every little bit of our stay and have absolutely no complaints or suggestions to make it better. Thank you so much. We will definitely try other locations of Under Canvas.

Everything was great from check in to check out. Everyone was friendly, the tents were spotless and we had a great night's sleep. The only negative is that my son's tents shower had no hot water. He let it run several minutes. I'm guessing the propane was out.

Not worth it. Property stolen from tent, property says use their website next time for cheaper rates. 3 restrooms for 25 tents to share. Insufficient fans, lights and battery packs unhelpful staff

Wonderful property staff was super friendly and helpful. Extremely nice camping experience. Nice view of Mt Rushmore is a plus. Good food too!
