We stayed here for three nights. We have child with a disability and he was very disappointed that we were staying a cabin rather than the lodge itself. We called the front desk and they were very accommodating and friendly about finding a room for us. They have a lot for kids to do and are very close to all... More

We took a two week road trip through the mid-west this past summer and this KOA Lodge was a highlight of our trip. Honestly we wished we had more time to stay and enjoy the TONS of amenities and programs at the Lodge at Palmer Gulch. Rooms were quiet average in size, but clean and comfortable. I had a ground...

I stayed in one of the larger cabins on the Palmers Gulch property. There were 3 bedrooms and a queen size sleeper sofa. The cabin was great- furniture seemed pretty new and everything had a log cabin theme. The view was lovely overlooking the property. I can't think of a better place to stay when visiting Rapid City!

We stayed in cabin 19 which is managed by Palmer Gulch lodge. The location is great and it is nice and big. On the positive side it was quiet and secluded and the staff was helpful with almost anything we ask for. The cabin really needs a make over. Two of the three outlets in the kitchen didn't work, the... More

We stayed in the lodge and thought it was actually pretty nice. The entire property had a ton of different options and fun activities for kids. We have a 2 year old, so he was a little young for the events. The Ponderosa Restaurant was not that good and did not allow meats to be cooked below medium well (I... More

We stayed 3 nights in the Lodge in room 220. This room had a kitchen and an upstairs bath and bedroom. The living room and dining room were spacious. Rooms were clean, and the bed comfortable. The staff was friendly. The laundry facilities were fine. The food at the ponderosa was good. GPS don't work to get here, but we... More

We stayed in an Executive Loge cabin. It was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped; you could have had a dinner for many people wth no shortage of anything. We were there at the end of Aug., so it was not very full, but it seemed there would be no shortage of entertainment or laundry facilities any... More

I recently attended a couples retreat that the Air Force put on at this location. We had been to the KOA with the kids before so we were pretty familiar with the location and were excited for the trip. It was an all expense paid and everything was paid on a tab. We decided to eat at the Ponderosa restaurant... More

Thiis is the most amazing place we have stayed. If we still had kids with us we probably wouldn't have seen them all day. You can camp or rent a cabin or stay in the lodge. You can rent a car or 4 wheeled ATV, swim in a pool or slide down the water slide, pan for gold. The possibilities... More
