Sheridan Lake

Such a beautiful site. Everything was so well kept and clean. Literally no problem. We will be back.

Heidi and David are excellent camp hosts!! They were friendly and very accommodating! The campsite was very clean and ready to use when we got there. Very close proximity to the bathroom. The only critique i have would be when you book your spot it doesn't tell you whether it's at the north or south part of the lake. Will definitely be going back!!

The lake was full of wake boarders blasting music no one wants to hear and seeing how close they can drive to other boats. They need someone patrolling the lake. I talked to three other fishermen who said the same thing. A lake that small should be a no wake lake.

A lot of the sites are marginal for a 28’ 5th wheel so if you have anything other than a tiny camper do your homework or you’ll be parked on a mound. Access to the shoreline for fishing in the campground is pretty limited and the area where there is access is very shallow and weedy.

The site we had (SMOK #9) was excellent. Large, flat and fairly easy to back to into. The bathrooms were the cleanest I have ever seen in a NF campground and I have stayed in at least 100 of them.

We stay here every year. Wonderful place to camp. The lake is beautiful. Peaceful place. Lots of open areas and wildlife. Water spickets are far apart but doable. Hosts are always friendly

Excellent camp group for those able to camp without electric hook up. We had a generator and some solar. No cell coverage, but you can easily travel to where it is available (Hill City). Great hikes, swimming and boat launch available.

Beautiful, well-kept campground with very private, flat sites.

I integrated this campground as part of a hiking/exploring vacation I planned, stretching from the Badlands to Boise, ID. I cannot believe how stunning of an area this was! Being from New Hampshire, I was not familiar with this area of SD. I am amazed by the beauty and peacefulness of this area - and of this campground. For a very reasonable rate, you can enjoy a spacious, clean site and a clean pit toilet - what more do you need? I only wish I had found time to actually enjoy the lake area more, or the hiking trails that are right off of this area. I spent a lot of time at Custer State Park and also visiting Mount Rushmore. On my way westward, leaving the campground, I stopped at Wind Cave National Park. I highly recommend this campground to anyone who is seeking access to a variety of outdoor activities, as well as access to some great national parks/monument.

Nice lake access for paddleboards, kayaks.

Great location, close to Mount Rushmore. No freshwater tank hook up. Potable water spigots near sites. Site was long enough for my 33’ travel trailer. Shaded spot

I had a great time at this campground. It is secluded enough to feel like you've gotten away from things, but still close enough to conveniences for when you need a couple things. The only complaint I'd have, which has nothing to do with the campground itself, is the speed everyone was coming and going. There used to be a time where it was expected that 5 mph was your standard campground speed, but there were several times vehicles were flying through and on some of the narrow spots almost resulted in an accident around a blind corner because someone was going 25 taking up the entire road. People need to relax and slow down, otherwise, it was a great place!
