This is a rustic campground
No water, sewer or electric
It’s right in the middle of all the tourist attractions makes it easy to see Mt Rushmore, Crazy Horse and more.
Groceries are not far in Hill City

This was an excellent spot in the campground. There are not many flat spots for large tents, though. We were able to pitch a 3-person tent a little farther down the hill with a mostly flat spot with a great view of the valley. It was beautiful. Also, the bathrooms were very clean compared to other campgrounds I've camped at. Overall, excellent!

The staff was very helpful dealing with the people that decided to stay after the check-out time. My wife and I had to wait 20 minutes for these old rude people to get their act together and leave. Check out time is 1PM - they left at 2:20 PM. Other then that issue - we had a wonderful time.

Great place to stay! Hosts were very friendly.
Sites are large and ours had a lot of privacy. Campground is close to all the attractions.
It would be nice if there was cell service within the campground.

Nice quiet campground with plenty of space between campsites. The garbage bins should be emptied more frequently or there should be an alternative place for people to dispose of fish guts. After a couple of days in the summer fish guts are unbearable to smell. The entrance roads are very narrow, and some areas have a large drop off from the edge of the pavement. Please fill in the low spots with gravel to prevent damage to low clearance vehicles and trailers.
The camp host, Cindy, was very nice and helpful. She is and asset to your organization.

Great campground with views of the lake and wonderful campsites. Well maintained with helpful staff checking campers in on arrival. Sites are spaced apart and most have tree coverage woth some shade. Lots of pollen when I visited in June.
