This is “glamping” at its best. Thoughtful and unique design elements. Beautiful vistas everywhere. Privacy and yet community accessibility in the same place - footsteps away. The view of Mount Rushmore was a bonus feature. The food was so much better than expected. I would highly recommend.
Overall, I don’t think the place/amenities are worth it. I got a suite since I was on a long road trip and wanted to shower as well. The on-site dining is fantastic. If you have not gone camping before and you want to start off with “glamping” this might be a suitable option. My soap dispenser was broken and one of the fans didn’t work. I personally don’t think it’s worth the price. I was supposed to get a bandana for my dog which I never received either. The room was also very dirty. Items left over clearly from previous guests. Very disappointing.
We really enjoyed our stay. The only bummer was that we seemed to be near a tent with teenagers and kids that were quite loud between 9 pm and 11 pm on a weekday.
My wife and I loved our stay here. We had a Stargazer tent and the view above the bed was incredible, we even got to see meteors one night! We now want to go and check out some of the other Under Canvas locations, it was top notch!
My first “yurt” experience was a great one. Nice common areas, cozy tents, friendly staff & healthy, delicious food options in the restaurant. I would definitely stay again at another Under Canvas
This place is AMAZING! Staff is incredibly accommodating, the tents are clean and nicely appointed, the food and selections are high quality, and the overall resort convenient to every national park. Incredible!!
Under the Canvas experience is something everyone should try. The luxurious tent was spatious, well decorated and with a very good bed. Camping like this becomes fun!

Comfortable bed, shower/bathroom area could be cleaner. More shelves in shower area for towels clothes and toiletries. Awesome view of Mt. Rushmore.
We liked the food and drink options available.
The tent was terrible for sleeping- the bed was creaky and noisy, the wind was whipping the sides of the tent against the bed making it impossible to sleep.
Great for campers that can't be too far from the washroom. A bit of a trek to get up to, but it's all worth it. Close to shopping and the Mt. Rushmore area.
Everything was beyond our expectations. From the provided s'mores, gas campfires, disc golf, hiking trail, room comfort, peaceful nights, delicious restaurant and bathroom/showers - we'll be back!
