Lantis Spring Campground

Gravel roads lead to this dispersed camping area in Custer National Forest, where campers find established fire rings and picnic tables spread across open terrain. The Forest Service maintains a clean pit toilet, though the campground lacks water and electrical hookups. A natural spring nearby provides water for filtering, and several groves of trees offer shade options, though some sites remain exposed to full sun throughout the day.

Cell service comes and goes within the campground but strengthens at higher elevations and the nearby fire lookout. The area sees light use, with occasional cattle passing through the sites. Campers exploring the region can find places to camp around Custer National Forest for different terrain and amenity options. No pets are permitted at this location.

Beautiful and easy free camping

Great free campground! No electric or water, but a spring nearby for filtering water, established fire rings, and a very clean pit toilet. There’s ample space for spreading out and several shaded picnic tables. There’s a few groves of trees for shade and hammocks and while my group managed to find spots that stayed shaded all day, some of the sites are very sunny. The roads in were gravel but well maintained, didn’t even have to put my vehicle into 4WD. I had 1 bar of cell service in the campground that came and went but strong service at the top of hill before entering the campground and at the nearby fire look out. Stayed here 4 nights in late June and only had 1 overnight camp neighbor and a couple of day-use neighbors. You may even have some cow neighbors if you’re lucky. Very beautiful scenery, would stay again :)
