Nemo Guest Ranch is a rustic and quaint old guest ranch in the center of the Black Hills, offering original cabins close to a century in age. The cabins are cozy, well-worn, and quite adequate, with baths, heat, a fan, and a bed, providing a feeling of authenticity and true Dakotan life. The ranch also features a camping area with water and 30 and 50 amp electrical hookups, alongside a nearby dump station.
It is a wonderful location, perfectly situated for exploring the area and central to Sturgis, Deadwood, Rapid City, Custer, Mount Rushmore, and Crazy Horse. The ranch is a fantastic experience for outdoorsmen, vacationers, and those attending the Sturgis Rally, though it is very busy during that time. It serves as a great home base with plenty to do, including ATV and dirtbike adventures, with RV rentals on site for trail vehicles. Miles of Forest Service trails and roads, from rugged to plain gravel, provide amazing scenery and rides with lovely views of the mountains and countryside.
On site, The Brandin’ Iron is a nice rustic cafe and full-service bar offering hearty meals and great service. The employees and owner are very nice, friendly, and fantastic, contributing to a beautiful atmosphere and a memorable stay.
Nice place to stay but don't expect anything fancy. No A/C and no TVs.
