You have to call the Hotel to get a better rate. If you're going to the website you'll see much higher rates.


1. The Black Hills Lodge has set 30 total rooms aside for us, arriving on 6/20/2024 (Thursday) and departing on 6/23/2024 (Sunday) Room Rates are as follows:

Room Type--------------------6/20/2024------------6/21/2024------------6/22/2024
2 Queen Beds Upstairs---------$144---------------------$209-------------------$209
2 Queen Beds Downstairs------$154---------------------$219-------------------$219
1 King Bed------------------------$154---------------------$219-------------------$219
*Rates do not include tax.

2. They will hold the rooms until April 30th with the rates above.
After April 30th, we can still book the rooms at these rates; however, the rooms will be subject to availability at the time of their booking.
3. To get these rates one must call and make the reservation at 605-642-7795. You can speak with anyone that answers the phone and reference the group Black Hills Rendezvous to access the room block and the rates above.

Dan Hodgs | General Manager | dan@bestwesternblackhills.com
Black Hills Lodge
540 E Jackson Blvd | Spearfish, SD 57783
P: (605) 642-7795 | F: (605) 642-7219

I know these rates are more expensive than in the past but this is "Prime Season" here in the Black Hills.

We have been to Texas and Arkansas a few times. We started talking and it been 30 years since we have been out west. And never on MCs.

That is going to change!

Booked at the Quality Inn one exit away from headquarters. I wanted to save on the hotel expense as our riding will not end there. We'll be riding out to the California coast to see the Redwoods after the Non Rally in the Black Hills. Trailering has always been a bad word for me, but this time Madmudder and I will be trailering out to Spearfish to elude the flat boring roads along the way.

From Spearfish we'll have great riding in the area and out West to see more of the sites I may have missed on last year's trip. I'd like to see Montana, Idaho, and maybe even spend some time in Colorado. Steel_Gin and I rode to Tyler's WCG last year and saw some amazing scenery. I hope to see more and different scenery this time around.

Can't wait to see you all in SD or wherever else we happen to run into you. This will be epic!
