Description

The Rushmore View RV campground is a classic, but small full-service campground along Grizzly Creek in Keystone, SD. Adjacent to the Magnuson Grand Rushmore View hotel, with views of Mount Rushmore from the main parking lot and check-in area. This quiet park is walking distance to shopping, restaurants, and attractions. Amenities include a convenience store, gas station and guest laundry adjacent to the park. Open for the camping season of the Black Hills mountain range (typically late May to early October). Our pet-friendly summertime RV park offers full hookups in all sites, pull-through or back-in, shaded sites and satellite friendly. Built in the days when RV’ing was car-camping and compact motorhomes, most sites are short and close together. We do have a few long 50amp sites that easily accommodate modern RVs.

Read the reviews!

Not worth it at all!  Our so called view of the faces was drowned out by the more immediate views of motels and the coming and going of people into and out of the rooms.  Our site was right up against the so called creek also, understand dry weather but it is really more like a drainage swale.  Not worth it all all, staff was not friendly and the disappointment of pulling into the RV area outshined any potential far away beauty of a face with some sunlight on it.

Small, bad water, tight driveway

With no signs pointing to the hotel office, we started down the path to what looked like the rv office only to have them be quite upset we didn’t check in. After getting checked in, we had to go around behind the hotel to their “new and improved sites”, which were far from new or improved. The driveway into the new area is so tight on corners with low laying rocks making it hard to navigate the turns esp in a 40’ tank. One other camper actually high-centered their pull behind on the rocks trying to make the turn.

The water quality is awful! We went to the next site possible and flushed all water systems due to the bad quality.

The creek is nothing more than a trickle or water with weeds and bushes all around it.

The bathrooms were not clean, and very short shower heads, I’m 5’7” and literally had to duck to wash my hair.

Would not stay here again for the 55$ it costs. Additionally, the only way to get to Rushmore is by 20-25$ taxi or you drive which is only 2 miles away.

Super close to so many amenities !

The reservation agent was super friendly and helpful. She put us in a really good spot. Sites are on the smaller side.

The campground is a bit crowded. It is behind a hotel. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful. It is only four miles from Mount Rushmore. There is a nice tourist town called keystone with all the amenities. Stopped at a restaurant called Ruby’s good food try the buffalo. $45 per night full hookup.
