My family stopped here to eat as it was either here or Wall drug way out here. We thought the food was excellent, particularly given the location. Service was fast, again especially given the amount of people stopping and location.

Its beautiful scenery and worth the drive. The souvenir shop has changed. Use to have lots of native american items, now not very much. Was going to try the restaurant but looked closed.

Great location - clean, updated cabin. Perfect for several days of exploring the Badlands.
