About this venue

With our Lakeside Ceremony Overlook Deck tucked atop the granite spires of Sylvan Lake, our all-wood Auditorium with floor-to-ceiling windows and private stone patio can't be beat. It's Custer State Park Resort's Crown Jewel, and these views have been sought out for primetime television shows and feature films. Make them yours!

Sylvan Auditorium

A short walk takes you to picturesque Sylvan Lake Trail.

Our largest indoor banquet space, this beautiful venue features 3,000 square feet of an all-wood interior, tall windows with views of the forest, and a stone & wooden deck overlooking Sylvan Lake. A short walk takes you to picturesque Sylvan Lake Trail, complete with easily-accessible photo ops at every turn, especially behind the spires where you will find cascade waterfalls, beautiful granite formations, and the incredibly diverse topography for which Sylvan is known.

The Pavilion

Combine the luxurious beauty of an outdoor event with the convenience of a safe haven.

Conveniently nestled amongst the pine trees directly west of the Game Lodge lies our brand new Pavilion, a pristine 4,000 square foot gabled roof shelter. With banquet seating for 350+ guests, chose the Pavilion when looking to combine the luxurious beauty of an outdoor event with the convenience of a safe haven from an unexpected Black Hills shower. After dark, enjoy s'mores around the group fire pit.
