Sitting just off the main highway into Custer, this private RV park puts campers within a short walk of downtown and within roughly 12 minutes of the Crazy Horse monument entrance. A trail connects the property to town, and both Custer State Park and Wind Cave National Park are close enough to serve as day-trip anchors. Highway proximity is worth factoring in: some campers report little road noise, while others note it depends on the season and traffic volume.
Sites are gravel and run close together. Hookup availability has varied across reviews over the years, reflecting a campground that has been actively developing its infrastructure, so confirming current electrical and water connections before arrival is a practical step. One consistent amenity is water delivery directly to your site if needed. WiFi is available, and several reviewers mention it working well. Cell service has come up as a recurring topic, suggesting it may be inconsistent depending on carrier.
The owners, Dan and Megan, draw repeated mention for their hospitality. Ralph S. calls the water delivery feature "a great service," and notes their camp dog Duke as part of the welcome. Cancellation policies have generated frustration from at least one camper, so reading the terms before booking matters. Nearby alternatives include Bearded Buffalo Resort to the east and Beaver Lake Campground to the west for campers comparing options in the area. This campground works best for RV travelers who prioritize location over amenity depth and want a no-frills base for exploring the Black Hills region.
Description
Our campground is located at the East end of Custer SD. Our property features French creek which has a couple of wide pools. The rest of the creek is fairly narrow with slow-moving water. Lots of water fowl frequent the area as well as deer in the evening. Kids will have a great time exploring the lower acreage. We plan to add new features & amenities to the park every year. We love being near so many scenic spots in South Dakota. We are looking forward to hearing about your adventures during your stay.
