Sheridan Lake campground offers a beautiful and well-maintained environment with spacious, clean sites, making it a popular choice for campers. Many guests enjoyed the proximity to local attractions and the peaceful setting, with clean bathrooms and friendly camp hosts receiving positive mentions. However, some visitors faced issues such as mice infestations, additional fees for beach access, and concerns about customer service, which have led to mixed reviews regarding their overall experience.

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.

Overall this is one of our favorite camping locations. the staff, including the Hosts are always very helpful. The campsites are always clean as well as the vault toilets. The only downside is the steep limited lake access for most all campsites.

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.

Great location. Close to many Black Hills tourist attractions.
Great kayaking even with the boats.
Paddle boarding good early before the boats start.

From Rapid City, take Highway 16 for 18 mi west to Three Forks. Turn right (north) on Highway 385 and travel 2 mi to Calument Road at the inlet. Turn right and travel 1 mi to the campground.
Sheridan Lake is accessible via Highway 16, which connects to Rapid City, and Highway 385, which provides access from Highway 16 to the campground.
