Apr 26, 2022Your itinerary of Mt Rushmore to Deadwood to the Badlands would make Hill City a fairly centrally located stop for your day trips.
As mentioned the Rafter J Bar is good as well as others in the area.
One thought is, depending on how long you are in the area, to make two or three stops. One in the north Spearfish to see, Deadwood, Spearfish Canyon and area, Sturgis, Fort Meade. Two in the south, Custer area to see MT Rushmore, Custer State Park and the Mammoth Site in Hot Springs. Three a stop at Wall to see the badlands and wall drug.
Just my 2¢
