Highland Meadows Resort
Hot Springs, SD - Lodging
Relax
Enjoy the peace and quiet around flickering firelight, enjoy the stars, or kick back in the hammock that comes with your Hot Springs cabin.
Explore
Take a hike in the Black Hills, explore Custer State Park, view the towering figures at Mount Rushmore, or take a dip in nearby mineral springs.
Recharge
Enjoy your South Dakota vacation on a secluded mesa above Evans Plunge. Grill up burgers or dine out, and roast some s'mores around the campfire.
Escape to the
Black Hills
Book one of the premier places to stay in the city of Hot Springs, SD and enjoy unobstructed views of the stars. Wake to the songs of birds atop a private bluff. Grab a cup of tea and turn on the gas fire pit in front of your luxury cabin rental. Sip, and warm your hands by the fire. Kick back in your Adirondacks and watch the sun rise.
Plan your day. Will it be hiking Sunday Gulch in Custer State Park or biking the George S. Mickelson Trail? Maybe you want to stay closer to your Hot Springs lodging and take a weaving class in town. Did you remember to book the class?
What about Wind Cave National Park, Moccasin Springs Spa, or The Mammoth Site? What about just sitting in the Adirondacks at Highland Meadows Resort and forgetting about everything while you're on vacation — except how warm the sun feels as it touches your skin?
Make and share memories
Sleep in an authentic tipi in the southern Black Hills. Experience glamping in a king-size bed, and enjoy sunsets in your Adirondacks. While the fire blazes, roast marshmallows for your s'mores.
As the stars fill the sky, talk about your plans for the next day. Maybe it's an afternoon at the local Cascade Falls and swimming hole. Make sure you pack a picnic and plan on hiking while you're there. Maybe you can swing by the Black Hills Wild Horse Sanctuary or book a ride in a hot air balloon.
A short road trip gets you to Mount Rushmore or Crazy Horse Memorial ... but if rain appears in the weather forecast, head into your tipi and listen to the patter on the canvas, pull out a board game, and enjoy the night.
Score conversation points with friends when you tell them about this Hot Springs, SD lodging experience!
Recharge in style and comfort
Cook a gourmet meal and enjoy compelling conversation in this luxury lodge. Take a walk out to your private overlook, sit back in Adirondacks, and view the lights from Hot Springs.
Kick back and watch a movie on the 85" TV with surround sound and plan for a day at the local spa. Will it be a mineral soak or facial? Or will you opt to call a massage therapist to come to you? After all, there's a massage table in the zen room right inside the lodge at Highland Meadows Resort .... You're on vacation. It's okay to ask someone to cater to you.
Explore the local shops and pick up some souvenirs, or grab a few things for the small event you've booked at Maka Lodge.
Before you leave the Black Hills, maybe you'll book a helicopter ride over Mount Rushmore or rent a Slingshot to take a drive down Iron Mountain Road. Enjoy spectacular views and a stop at Sylvan Lake.
Sleep under the stars ... or in a tent
Come alone, with your family, or with your friends and enjoy brilliant stars from your campsite in Hot Springs, South Dakota ... so close to town but also so remote.
Play a game of corn hole, cook a tinfoil dinner in the fire, and roast marshmallows for dessert. Talk, laugh, and maybe even play games around your picnic table by lantern light.
Head to Evans Plunge in the morning. Why not? It's located right next door and it's fed by natural mineral springs — the town's called Hot Springs for a reason. Swim laps while the kids play on the waterslides ... or enjoy many other Hot Springs attractions:

Mammoth Site
