My family and I just returned from a trip to the Black Hills. We rented a sleeping cabin at Sylvan Lake Resorts for one night. Our two young children loved it because they could make noise and explore the area. You cannot see the lake from the cabins, but the atmosphere is peaceful.

We both had buffalo sirloin, which was good but not exceptional. My main problem was that they did not serve French dressing at their salad bar. I think any sensible restaurant should offer French dressing. I had a Moose Drool beer with my meal. There was nothing special about the beer, but it was fun to have the waitress ask, “How’s your Moose Drool?”

It's a long drive from Ohio, but, worth every minute, once you step out of the car at Sylvan Lake Resort. The views from The Lodge and the Honeymoon Cabin are second to none. The Lodge Manager has got to be the finest anywhere. My wife and I were married at the Honeymoon Cabin in 1992 and honestly can't wait to return yearly. It is by far our little piece of heaven on earth.
