We were camphosts for the 2023 season.I can't say enough on how Kelly, Steve and his entire family makes sure your well taken care of..they added a second dog park for the little pups, renovated 5 site to give a better camping experience in those sites. If you need something they are on it..they have the best options for camping.. cabins, teepees, barrel kegs, tent, electric tent, w/e 30 amp, 30 amp full h/hu, 50 amp f/hu, and big rig sites..they have worked endlessly to supply you with the best experience. The campground is not your typical parking lot camping..each site is individually unique..it was made around hills, tons of shade trees,and rock formations. Each site is as level as possible. Restroom are individual with shower sink and toilet.. they are very clean. There is a fort playground for the kids that's fantastic. There is a pavilion that can be used for family gatherings. Several reunions are hosted every year..You will have local wildlife visit daily including deer and turkeys. In the spring the new fawns and chick turkeys are born and are adorable. They are centralized to all attractions..perfect location to everything. The several clients that have been repeat customers for years..staying for 6 to 8 weeks..that speaks for it self..everybody loves it. It's very quiet, the store has everything you need. Michelson trail is approximately 1 mile away which can be walked or ride bikes the 114 miles through the mountains. The hospital is 1 mile away. If your in the area, and you need an excellent place to stay..at the best price.. this is where you want to be.. It's very family friendly including your dogs and cats.
Perfect location for our visit to Custer State Park
Absolutely loved our stay here!! Our check in was easy and the staff super pleasant. This is a family oriented campground with a great play area for the kiddos. Our tent site was spacious, level and clean. As well, the bathrooms are huge and very clean which is always a nice bonus. I will 100% stay here again if we’re ever in the area!
Nice campground
Stayed for 2 nights to explore Custer State Park and Mt Rushmore. Nice size campground (not too big) with wooded sites. Friendly hosts. They have a dog park and 24 hour laundry. One of our party is in a wheelchair and there was one accessible shower. Had to bring own shower chair though. There is a camp store where they sell firewood and a limited selection of other camping needs. I would normally give 4 stars for the limited ADA bathroom access, except that they were very accommodating in choosing a site for us that would be easy for a wheelchair to get around and were so friendly overall. Also it is very quiet yet convenient to see the local sites. I would stay here again.
