"We picked a site near the back of the camp grounds located near the creek and close to a small parking lot (close by to the pet exercise area on the map - though it's labelled as an ice rink on grounds"
"Nice city campground along Spearfish Creek and super close to downtown and has easy access to Spearfish Canyon. We definitely took advantage of the creek and proximity to downtown during our stay."
$29 / night
"The tent sites are right on the river and it makes for a peaceful sleep
The highway is very close but the road noise is pretty low considering the proximity."
"Tent site was near the river, and the sound of the river helped drowned out the nearby highway noise."
"Dump station and potable water
If you can boondock, plenty sites on opposite side of lake ( see Belle Fourche Dam & Reservoir, and it’s free)
Ground was so parched-grass do dry that it hurts pooch"
"Camped at site 27E, which was close to showers/bathrooms and playground. Site was on water’s edge. Campground is large and was nearly full on a Friday night so it was somewhat loud."
"Great waterfront camping. tons of space around, we stayed on middle loop in spot 12 near pit toilets."
"Stayed one night camped on waters edge. Loved it however the mosquitoes were vicious."
$23 - $65 / night
"Close to freeways and many day drive towns and memorial sites. Arrived weekend after Sturgis Rally… Pretty quite 😀🐐🦬🌄"
"They are close to Spearfish Canyon which has wonderful hiking trails and trout fishing. The area is beautiful.There are also close to Deadwood and Lead, both of which are worth exploring!"
"Nice people, very clean bathrooms, close to highway so there’s some road noise. Nature trail with off leash dog area, and a small dog park in the middle for off leash doggy play time."
"Located within 8 miles of services and shopping, the hosts were very friendly and helpful. Sites are a little close together, but well kept."
"Campground is very clean and has quick and easy access to the highway. "
"The park was easy to get to though our RV GPS wanted to take us up to I-90 and back around versus just taking a left across US-85 into the campground (CG). Check in was easy and informative."
"Belle Fourch but after a little exploring I found a great private spot in Free Dispersed area but the site were furnished with a fire ring and table and a great view of a beautiful lake."
"Woke up to a beautiful sunrise next to the reservoir. Plenty of sites to choose from with vault toilet close enough to walk between sites."
"Our spot was nice and a short walk to a vault toilet and trailhead. The trail led to a cool tower that we climbed to watch the sunset."
"The road is easy to drive if coming off the CanAm Hwy side of the mountain. Walking distance to the Roosevelt Friendship Tower hike which is highly recommended."
"Shooting range on site
Hiking and horse trails onsite
Will definitely come back for another visit!"
GuideHad to make this update - they do have showers inside the restroom areas, which do not require cash. NOBODY HAS INFORMED ME OF THIS DURING MY CHECK IN !!! Toilets are clean but the some stalls don’t have a lock???
Pictures online seemed good but once I stepped into the office, I quickly realized this camp ground is primarily used by more conservative/Trump supporters. The office inside is decorated with pro Trump everything. The door outside will greet you with “F*** Biden and if you voted for Biden - F*** you too “…
The lady who received me was friendly, no complains there. She also made sure I’d get a spot where it’ll be a bit more quiet and close enough to the restrooms. The showers and laundry are both operated only by quarters, which in my opinion is not the greatest. Especially when you travel with smaller kids. There was so trash scattered on the sites. The tables/benches are outdated/partially intact. Overall I’d say this is OK for a nights stay but if you value your peace of mind, this may not be it for you.
TravelerNice scenery. Lots of UTV noise during day. I was in desperate need of a sun view for my solar and got some here when the weather cleared. The road in is very rough on steep. High clearance and four wheel drive recommended but I have seen compact cars make it in and out
GuideMaybe 3 spots.. one has hard slant.. no campfire signs all over.. not far to Roosevelt tower.. beautiful views..
GuideVery convenient if you are traveling between Teddy Roosevelt National Park and Mt. Rushmore. We pulled in after dark and left as the sun rose. Right outside Deadwood.
GuidePlenty of spots down the entire road.
GuideNever saw a cattle guard (bridge)or wire gap like in photo.. road had lots of muddy pot hole going in .. has deep cut ruts.. all time 4x4.. made it thought.. Drove right to it.. slant, has fire pit but did not use it..
GuideDid a one nighter here. Not much shade. Very open and close to others. AMAZING view of Devils Tower, without a doubt.
We had just fallen asleep then woken by the sounds of a large bear roaring very close to us. We sat up terrified and kept hearing the roaring… after 5-7 minutes peering out of the top of the tent trying to figure out where it was… we finally realized IT WAS A MAN SNORING!?! NO JOKE! Finally fell back asleep couple hours later woken by what sounded like a shot… heard some hustle and bustle went back to sleep…
Woke up in the morning to find a GIANT tree branch broke off and landed in the middle of the grounds thankfully missing people and cars.
Bathroom was great! Clean and lit. Grounds were clean and convenient. No shade. No fire pits. Could hear everyone doing everything
GuideFr202 turn uphill but not muddy.. on right .. wind n storm but good camping.. quite..not much traffic after dark..
TravelerRoad heading up to site is loaded with deep ruts, wash out, but well worth it. One other camper with Full flower moon over the tower. Unreal
