Our site was #20. Nice and shady but be careful where you set your tent. We had a several inches of rain. It pools all around the fire pit. Just look for the high spot. The water receded remarkably fast. I would have given a 5 but the bathroom door doesn't close which is hugely inconvenient.

The campsites are large and nicely separated from other sites with trees. Very pretty location. The lake is not near these sites and you would likely want to drive to the swim beach but parking availability wasn’t an issue even on the 4th of July. There is no cell phone signal (Verizon) in the campground.

Sheridan Lake was a great campground to be away from the crowds and busyness of the Black Hills, but close enough to the sights without driving all the time. Our spot had lots of trees which made using solar a little difficult, but our generator came in handy when we didn’t have enough power. There is NO dump station which was also tricky, but we made it work. The lake and beach were great along with the large campsites.

The park is gorgeous. The sites are first rate. Access is tight, but that’s fine given the reward of such a beautiful spot to stay.
I did find the staff to be overly policing to the point of almost intimidation. As there was no services whatsoever, things like generators are required. If you got home late and ran the generator one minute past 10. There was a knock on the door. I think somebody came by our site every 15 to 20 minutes all evening to make sure that we were abiding by all rules and regulations. It felt more like incarceration than camping. As a couple caring for three young well behaved boys it seemed a little over the top.
We had neighbours that were treated similarly.
I would still come back to your camp site, however, I would look for a site far from your camp hosts as at 52 years old, I don’t require babysitting.
