End of season camping is the best - especially during the week. Not a lot of campers. The camp hosts are wonderful, nice, helpful people. The campground is well maintained. The lake itself is beautiful and a no-wake lake so it's calm and peaceful, clear and beautiful. We had a wonderful time and we'll be back.

Camping in the hills is always great and Dutchman campground has been our favorite for many many years. Our camp host, Sue, is the best and she made our stay very enjoyable (our grandson's love her).

The camp host was superb! And the campsite was stunning. A bit tough to find the campsite in the dark, but after a few minutes we found it. Beautiful views. 100% recommend!

The host at this campground was the best. Our site had such a great view. We had planned on going here and there for jokes around Custer state park but this campground was so perfect that we stayed all weekend. Our neighbors were most excellent also. So quiet and so much space for each site. Loved every minute

Long gravel road up to campground. Lake is too far to walk to from campsights. Lake is very clear, nice views, quiet.
Sight 033 too steep for RV.
