Best Campgrounds near Pringle, SD

Very quiet. Some sites have no shade at all. This one was very nicely shaded and tucked away from the road. Elk and Coyotes sounding off all night.

The place was very calm just some cars went on the road behind us. I really recommend this place. Cell coverage is poor but still present. You can go to this place if you search a very calm place.

This campground was amazing, ideal for flexible day-to-day plans. A handy tip: reserve your first night online, then use the on-site landline to extend your stay without any additional charges. It’s a secluded spot with simple facilities like pit toilets, water spigots, and a shower near the lake."https://thetocabocaworld.com/

Stunning scenery with so much to explore! I only wish I could have stayed a few more nights. The lake is absolutely beautiful, the trails are well-maintained, and the fun feels endless. download minecraft pocket edition

Sites are graded but location is on a hill making getting around a pain. The weather was very, very hot when we were there and there wasn't any shade at our spot. Decent experience overall.

My Son and I stayed here while visiting Mount Rushmore and the surrounding area's other attractions. There's a lot of dispersed spots here but most spots don't have a fire ring that I could see. There's only a few spots that a high clearance vehicle might be required but most of the road can be explored without one.

This is a pack in and pack out site with no facilities; no running water, no bathrooms, nothing. Make sure you bring what you need with you.

Weather was great, very mild. Air was fresh and crisp.

We are planning on staying here again in the future because of it's close proximity to everything and my 6 year old loved it!

We came in one afternoon and there was hardly any sites available. It was beautiful tho!

Stayed a night in early November. Didn’t see any notice that the bathroom we picked a spot near was closed for the season… that meant a really long cold walk to the pit toilet. Quite a few shady sites, a babbling brook nearby, a flock of turkeys wandering through most of the morning. While the campground was mostly empty, we had neighbors directly adjacent with at least two dead deer in the back of their pickup for more than 24 hours, with crows coming by for snacks… kinda gross.

Plus, amenities like clean restrooms, picnic tables, and fire pits add convenience without taking away from the rustic charm. Whether you're there to hike, uno online spot wildlife, or just unwind by the campfire, it’s a wonderful spot to connect with nature in Custer State Park.

I loved this campground, perfect for day-by-day planning. Here’s a quick tip: book your first night online, then use the landline on-site to extend your stay without extra fees. It’s a remote spot with basic amenities—pit toilets, water spigots, and a nearby shower up by the lake. Read More

I loved this campground, especially for planning one day at a time. Quick tip: book online for your first night, and then use the on-site landline to extend as needed—no extra fees for adding nights this way. It’s a quiet, remote spot with basic amenities: pit toilets, water spigots, and a shower up the road by the lake. Read More

Beautiful scenery with loads to do. The drive from Mt Rushmore to the campsite was incredible

play uno online there with my friends too.

Clean small campground. Probably really busy state park in summer months. End of loop only trails and wildlife behind us.

I found the place easily and the spots were well apart from each other. The weather was great camping in the pine trees, very quiet and cozy. Will definitely camp at again.

Lots of cool spots if you can get to them. Once you leave the gravel the roads are hit and miss. You’re not taking a trailer down most of them if any.

Sites: 16, 20, 18, 15: I like these pull over sites, because they have a nice view of the rolling grasslands. However, in our site, number 15, we were able to barely get our slide out without it protruding over the campground road. Some of the other pullover sites in B loop offer less room for a safe slide out usage. Other loops have wider pullover sites for trailers with slide outs. I took pictures of some of these sites with their numbered posts.
