Black Hills beauty - My wife just love Rapid City and the Black Hills area. God has blessed that part of the US with beauty beyond imagination. The wildlife is so abundant with bison, donkeys, rams, sheep and many others. You will not be disappointed.

Coaster ride - This ride was an unexpected wild ride! It was so fun. Very roller coaster like! We went with several family members so we had a contest to see who got the best score! This was at the same place we got dropped off after the Mt. Rushmore bus trip. Very convenient to do.

Can't go wrong, good food, good band. - We absolutely loved this place, the dining hall is very organized, and the food was very good. I especially enjoyed meeting the owner, who is charming, and full of great stories. Entertainment was epic.

Family Day Trip - The ride was fun if you’re tall, you might feel a little scared of your feet hitting the wall however, for the price, it was well worth it and the memory card they give you that’s awesome. The staff was very courteous.

fast paced action that keeps you entertained. - This was an exhilarating experience. We did the reasonably price unlimited ride option and rode for almost 2 hours. We had two adults aged 40 and two teenagers (13 and 15) and we all loved it. The ride is challenging and was still fun at the end of day as you continually get better at hitting targets. This is one of the funnest rides we've ever done. Staff was also super helpful and entertaining. We then went to the dinner show which was also amazing.

Good time for all! - Family vacation stop along the way. Great time for the kids (8 & 10), as well some fun for the grown ups. The coaster is not aggressive, but still fun and allows you to make a good competition with each other shooting targets while you ride. Lot more challenging than you think. $25 for unlimited rides. My kids got their money’s worth! Beyond the fun, the staff was incredibly nice. All of them!

Made memories - We didn’t know what to expect. We are older than most riders and probably not the crowd that it was intended for. We had a good laugh and made fun memories.

Different fun - This was a lot more fun - and much more difficult -than I imagined it would be! The ride is exhilarating and then trying to shoot the target with your gun is completely at another level. We got an all day ride ticket at a discount with out Chuckwagon supper ticket so we rode for a couple hours.

Fine - It was fun. Lots of swinging back and forth and I didn’t hit any targets but that might be my fault.
