We'll be back...again and again
We discovered this little gem about 10 years ago. Whenever we are in Custer, The Rocket Motel is our first choice. The only thing I would like different, would be the temp controls in the room. Hard to manage. Would love the option to run a fan to muffle outside noise. Otherwise a wonderful place to stay

The owner lied to me about making a change in the reservation causing me to pay for a night we did not stay at the motel. Dishonest despite the fact they have a “Jesus” sign on their front door.

Cute Little Motel
The cleanliness at this cute motel was top notch. Everything was pristine. The decor was 1950’s style and worked well. It was a chilly night (woke up to frost of the car windows). Our room temperature was 55 F., a good sleeping temp but too cold for a morning shower. The heat apparently wasn’t on yet.

Very nice place! Not the typical hotel. This is a retro style hotel with a fifties feel. Enjoyed our stay.
