This campground is literally a 2 minute walk from tent to the park entrance! There’s a huge store with an ice cream shop and restaurant. The folks are really nice too. There’s a huge grass area for first come, first served tent camping, which I totally recommend! The Premium Tent (PT) sites are very large and can hold at least 3 8-person tents.
We stayed here for one night, but it was amazing! The campsite was spacious, clean, and the facilities were very nice!! We picked a site with a view and we didn’t regret that one bit! Probabky one of the nicest KOAs we’ve stayed at so far! Definitely recommend Devil’s Tower and definitely recommend this KOA!
Had a fantastic time here. Wonderful facilities. Best bathrooms and shower facilities I’ve ever seen for a campground. Excellent views of Devils Tower all around. played “Close Encounters of the Third Kind” every night at 8, so cool! Camp store is good for all the essentials and a bite to eat if you are tired of cooking. Plenty of places for pups to roam as well. Highly recommend staying here.
It is very close to the monument and has a great view of it. There was hardly anyone there when I camped with my family.
The staff was super nice, and I loved that they showed "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" every night during the summer with Devil's Tower in the background. The campground is right next to the national monument. The tent sites were somewhat exposed, but that gives a good view of the monument.
You can’t ask for a closer location, right at thebenterance gate to the National Monument. Clean with nice amenities, they show Close Encounter of the third kind which was filmed here every night in the pavilion and if you don’t want to watch it with others they have copies you can check out in the office. Only complaint I have is the cotton wood trees were making a mess but that’s not the campgrounds fault. My daughter walked around the campground at dusk and saw a variety of wildlife.
It’s ridiculously close to Devils Tower. Literally right outside of the park. They’ve got full amenities when they’re open. The pool and restaurant weren’t open because they were still in the process of opening and getting ready for official opening on May 11th. That being said, I didn’t pay full price because of it. Deer roam the camp ground in the morning and evening. You’re gonna have a GREAT view of Devils Tower. The staff are great and always strive to make sure you have a great time when you’re there. Definitely worth staying here.
We stayed here for just a night but this spot really won my heart. Open space, clean showers and facilities, a cute cafe and even a gift shop. But nothing beat that gorgeous view of the Tower right from the comforts of our own tent. Then hiking around Devil's Tower the rest of the day was icing on the cake. Definitely my best KOA experience, hands down.
Easy access to devils tower to beat the crowds. Stay away from the playground up front, it attracts a ton of kids.
Devil's Tower KOA has an incredible view and is adjacent to the Devil's Tower National Monument Entrance.
Lovely KOA with all the KOA amenities, one bathroom/showerhouse in great shape and the other under renovation. They have a pool and playground and of course had a showing of 'Close Encounters'. The camping cabin we stayed in was clean and comfortable with AC and heat available. The view of the tower from the cabin was stunning.
I was very impressed with the trees and space between sites in this KOA - quarters were not as tight as we sometimes see. An excellent KOA.
The Devil's Tower area is a beautiful lanscape, with deep native roots. When in the area please respect it and learn about the stories and traditions of its caretakers.
We stayed here when the more “rustic” campgrounds were full in the middle of summer. We don’t usually stay at KOAs so it was a nice surprise that they had a tent area that wasn’t like a theme park. The cabins along the river looked really nice. Everything was nice and clean and they had stores and restaurants. The views of Devil’s Tower were great though most sites don’t have a view, but the crowded facilities were still worthwhile. Personally we’d still prefer to stay at a state park.
Great little campground close to the monument. All the modern amenities. They also offer cabin rentals which is nice if you dont want to bring all your gear or weather the elements. Personally we prefer a more rustic state/national park style campground. Next time we visit devils tower we'll be making the short drive from Custer.
We loved this campground. It was at the gate to the park, had great views, and they show 'Close Encounters of the Third Kind' every night, outside with the tower in the background. Very cheesy but very cool. The campground is nice, not a lot of open space between each spot, but it did not feel overly tight.
There is basically two trails, one that goes directly around the tower and one that is a more distant loop around the tower. The inside loop is very crowded with people, but it's still worth the hike.
