Looking for seclusion? Redbank Springs Campground is located off the beaten path and offers limited sites for those wanting to be surrounded by the sounds of nature. Situated west of Deerfield Lake along Road #294, this campground only has four sites. This lesser-known location is rustic and is tucked away in a beautiful spot in the Black Hills. Sites are available first-come, first serve.

Campers at this location are advised that garbage services are not available in 2023 and this campground will be open with limited services at this time as the forest is in the process of getting toilets decommissioned/replaced.

Redbank Spring Campground

Nobody else was here- perhaps due to the long forest road drive. This campground is an hour or so out of town and most of your time will be on gravel and dirt. The drive is so enjoyable that you won’t mind at all. There are only 4 sites but they have plenty of space. A couple vault toilets finish up the camp. There is no water source so bring your own. Besides finding a beautiful spot to sit and enjoy wilderness, ATVs have there place here. Many forest roads are not available to highway legal vehicles. 

Do yourself a favor and enjoy this place.
