We stayed at Custer's Gulch and have never been treated better. We went without reservations and were told they could put us up for three days but, at different spots. I said great. Everyday as we moved they apologized and I told them we were just happy to have a place. Don't miss Wounded Knee while you are up there, we enjoyed it and young native Americans tell you and show you were the massacre happened and have keepsakes if you want them. Also the tallest waterfall in Nebraska (80 feet) is at Valentine and has on site camping and is well worth the visit. I have lived in the Midwest all my life (68 years) and never realized Nebraska even had a waterfall!
