Whistler Gulch Campground & RV Park

Owners are working on improving sites. They are pretty level. Currently, sites are close together and they are in the process of merging 2 into 1. Location is quiet. There is a place to walk dogs. Deadwood trolley comes right to the CG to transport you downtown.

May 10th stopped in to tent camp on motorcycle. Yes it is old as is Deadwood. 15 tent sites up the hill in the far back all in a row. They flattened out places for table and tents (except for T13). Has steel fire pit and wooden table, a few were missing a table this early in the season. To me it looks like all the sites have at least one level spot for a small tent and most had more space. My site T12 could fit both a large and small tents. The men's bathhouse was decent, they are updating the 4 showers with new tile etc. The grounds keeper guy was super helpful, the owners were gone after 5:00. Late check-in was easy. $32 for tent site if cash. It is a hike down the hill to the bathroom and pool. No spigot up here in these parts. I left at 8:45am and never saw an owner or host.

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.

Awsome

I 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😊

Maybe 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.

Before 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.

we 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.
