South Dakota - Custer State Park
In this big park (71,000 acres) in Black Hills National Forest there are four resorts, each with its own regional theme. To stay where presidents slept, reserve a room at the State Game Lodge Resort, which once served as the summer White House for “Silent Cal” Coolidge and later Dwight Eisenhower. Don’t be surprised if a buffalo wanders by, there are 1,500 head in the park. If cowboying is more your style, mosey over to Blue Bell Lodge, where stables offer guided horse rides into the country. For dudes who choose not to mount up, there are hay rides and chuck wagon cookouts on the prairie. And if you prefer a room with a view of water rather than trees and prairie, consider Sylvan Lake Resort and Legion Lake Resort.
