Looking for a place to camp near Belle Fourche with your horse? Finding a place to stay in South Dakota while traveling with your horse has never been easier. The Dyrt can help you find the perfect equestrian sites that are scenic and easy to access.
Iron Creek Lake offers tent and RV camping with electrical hookups only. Potable water is available in the campground and can be transported to individual camp sites via bucket or temporary hose connection. A dump station is available upon departure.
Nightly Cost: The cost is $30 per night for a tent site for up to 4 people in the same immediate family. Campers/RVs cost $37.50 per site, which includes electricity. Nightly rates do not include sales tax.
Electricity: While all sites have electricity, it isn’t always close by. Campers are encouraged to bring extensions cords. We have 15, 30, and a few 50 amp sites available. Take note of the electrical hookup in the site description when making a reservation.
Terrain: The campground was built decades ago and was adapted to the terrain. The hilly nature of the campground adds to the area’s beauty but can make it challenging to level campers. Be prepared with extra materials and patience. The campground does not have concrete pads nor any pull-through sites, so drivers should be adept at backing up. Also, sites do not have well-defined boundaries, so please be courteous and accommodating to your neighbors and pay attention to parking instructions given at check in.
$30 - $38 / night

Small campground close to the street. We had a dry campground ($28) close to the office, but Wifi was not working good. Clean and spacious showers and restrooms. Right across the street is a hotel with restaurant which offers breakfast (also lunch and dinner).
ScoutVery minimal almost no wife but good location to town

Nice view but that’s where it ends. The owner was terrible. They don’t hardly ever answer there phone and they don’t take messages. The sights are small and very Unlevel, a picnic table could not be used and was in poor shape. The grass area was completely full of weeds and dandelions but they go crazy if you had a tire on it. The whole Campgrounds what is in poor condition and the pool was dry no maintenance anywhere. We would never stay there again.
GuideLovely hiking on the site. Very friendly staff. Clean, well serviced. Far enough from freeway so you feel like you are really camping, but very convenient. So glad they are open during the winter.

We camped at Iron Creek Lake after the rally, at the end of August. It was wonderful, not crowded. The cafe/diner has things like burgers and ice cream, and the fishing in the lake is great. The trail around the lake is easy to walk and there is some beach area for frog catching and splashing around with little kids. This is a great lake to have a water toy like a kayak, and there are rentals available too. We have a 30' TT and didn't have any problem at the far end of the lake setting up flat and level camping. Power was there as well. There are many sites here on a hill, so depending on what you get, you may be in for a tricky parking situation with a longer trailer. We didn't even use the dumpstation as the way it is positioned I couldn't get the tanks dumped, so that was a bummer. We went into Spearfish campground owned by the city and dumped there.
ScoutAwsome
ScoutThis is a great place to camp they only downside is there's absolutely zero data connection or internet connection. I have a hotspot for my RV because I watch internet TV and for two days I couldn't do anything I couldn't even call people. Would have gave it five stars if I could have used my phone at least
TravelerPleasant campground tucked away in the black hills of SD
GuideI booked this campground a few weeks before we went. I’m glad I did because they seem to be full during the summer. They are really close to town, so it’s really convenient. We have a larger side by side, so when I called they made sure that we would have a spot to fit that too. We had a great site close to the pool. The pool was clean and not busy. Our kids wanted to spend all day everyday there😊
ScoutFirst off allow me to set the scene. We came into town for the rodeo so we knew it would be busy and lodging would be sparse. We liked this option for its location to downtown deadwood and the trolley. We opted for the camping cabin as we knew it would be warm. Upon arrival I received the key (this is where I should have known cleanliness was out of the questions) the key chain was SO gross! We opened the door to the cabin and bugs were everywhere! The window sills looked as if they hadn’t been cleaned in years. There is a small bathroom with a toilet in a building down by the cabins that looked as if it hadn’t been cleaned in months. We are in a post pandemic times and this is totally unacceptable. After addressing it with the front desk they shrugged and said “sorry, no refunds” we were booked for two nights. I would have been totally understanding if only one night had been refunded but their inability to recognize their wrong doing....sickening. When your livelihood is the patrons of your establishment visiting and enjoying their stay and safely at that....you meet your customer in the middle with a solution. Gross gross gross....stay as far away as possible.
GuideThis lake is very pretty! Nice little trails all around the lake and most rv sites have a lake view. I have a 25’ camper and the site they put me in was pretty tight and on a hill as most are here. Took all my blocks and a couple big stumps but we got it figured out. We happened to be here Father’s Day weekend and let me say it was way over packed and a bit annoying. Reminded me of a summer camp which is cool if you’re a kid...Come Monday however it was very peaceful again. Lots of little cabins and rvs turned into “homes” around the lake looks like people live here year round. Most sites have electric, water up the hill to fill your tank with, just takes awhile due to low pressure, and a dump on the way out which is on a hill so u may not get all your tanks fully dumped ... oh and absolutely no phone service! All that being said it was a very pretty place to stay! Just be prepared, and if u don’t like it busy I wouldn’t go on the weekend.
LegendWe stay in site # 220 with Full hook up. We backed up to a mountain not a bad view. Would have liked to have been a little closer to the pool and where the trolley picks up it was a walk from our site. The pool which was clean & refreshing and quiet.
You can trolley from the campground into town Deadwood it's $1.00 each way. Some trolley drivers are so funny they seem to have a good time. It's fun to see the shoot out in the street with Wild Bill Hickok & Calamity Jane. The cemetery where they are buried is a 5 minute drive or trolley from the campground.
They do have some ATV people camp there they go up the mountain & run around but it wasn't loud.
Sturgis is close, nice little drive. Fun place we didn't go when the big bike event.
Deadwood is a cool town love to eat at Saloon 10 a great Ribeye steak, doesn't hurt to make a reservation it can be very busy. Good burgers too. Deadwood Dick's is a bar/ Antique store we cruised through that Love his logo.
TravelerMaybe if your in an RV it’s better? Tent sites are all the way at the top of the hill. Not even in walking distance to bathrooms, showers or the pool. We felt remote up there, which I suppose isn’t a bad thing. Very uneven grassy spaces. They did have shuttle to town. Convenient to town deadwood and lead and to attractions.
GuideI stayed for 2 nights in the off season. When I called ahead the hosts said it was on them due to the off season and said to enjoy the space. Very very lovey people. It was like as if I had walked into a wonderland of nature. The day was beyond perfect and the space was magical. I cannot recommend this place enough. Hands down the best camping spot I have ever been too. If you get the chance it’s beyond worth it to stay here. The space is nature at its best. I will be coming back as soon as I am able.
ScoutThis campground was an accidental find and we were so glad we did! Super friendly and affordable, and views that were amazing!
GuideWe stayed overnight in a PT W/E site for $38. The whole park is gravel, with some muddy potholes. They have several horse camping sites too and a few guests were using the stables. It's a short and safe walk into downtown Deadwood, if you'd like to do some drinking and walk home... which is exactly what we did.
GuideBefore leaving Devil's Tower we called and after several tries got someone who said they still had a few sites open for the off season. But she was very busy and about half an hour later returned the call but I was unavailable. In spite if an immediate call back no one answered, nor did they for the next 2 hours in spite of calling numerous times. When we got there, the office was open but no one around. Calling got me to their reservation service which tried several calls to them and could not reach anyone. Driving through the campground to turn around not sure I would want to stay. Tiny sites no shade. Convenient is about all it seems to offer.
Travelerwe made reservations 6months in advance for a long level site. not many level sites here and the site we were told to go to was not long enough for our camper let alone the tow vehicle. they were accommodating and let us pick a different site. pool was being worked on so not open. 1 shower quite a distance and missing shower curtain hooks.
TravelerThis is one of our favorites. It's a Beautiful Mountain Lake. Wildlife all around. Great Trout, and even some Bass fishing. Small camp store Abit spendy, but you do have to pay for "convenience". Your up in the trees. Also good hiking trails. Can't say enough except, "Don't go there", leave it peaceful up there! hahaaa "JK"
