Cedar Pass Lodge, inside Badlands National Park.Once a wooded forest where dinosaurs roamed, centuries of rain and prairie winds have formed deep gorges with sharp chiseled spires. These ragged ridges and desert canyons form the 244,000 acres preserved as Badlands National Park. Additionally, the Park is surrounded by one of the largest remaining mixed-use prairie wilderness areas in the United States.
Cedar Pass Lodge, located just inside the Park near the Interior Entrance, is within walking distance of the newly remodeled Ben Reifel Visitor Center. Providing the only opportunity for lodging inside Badlands National Park, Guests can enjoy staying in a collection of quaint, historic cabins that are air conditioned and modernized for summer comfort. While there stop for a bite in the full-service restaurant that is known throughout the region for its unique Indian Tacos made with Indian fry bread. The Lodge’s gift shop, adjacent to the restaurant, features a stunning variety of Native American crafts, jewelry and art—plus books, clothing and souvenirs. Need some water for the road? Make a stop in the on-site convenience store stocked with grocery and picnic items, beverages, sundries and ice.
Cedar Pass Lodge rooms, restaurant, and the convenience/gift store are open from mid-April through mid-October.
