Stories from the community

Weekend Trip to Uncle B's Produce Farm

Brian is a great host. He went above and beyond for us. We stayed on the Hippie Bus with our 4 year old. She loved the bus and had so much fun. Im going to recommend staying at Brian's for anyone traveling that way. Thanks again Brian!

Weekend Trip to Bear Den Cabins & Camp

This property is amazing! Tammy gives a personal tour of the amenities and all they offer, and makes sure you have everything you need for an enjoyable stay, The bathroom with multiple showers and sinks, utility room with microwave and washer, and the covered deck with a grill were above and beyond what we expected. The kids had a great time with the yard games and seeing the horses too.

1 night at Uncle B's Produce Farm

I rented the hippy bus for myself and two granddaughters, ages 8 & 10. We had a blast, despite the rainy weather. Brian was a great host, meeting is, showing us around, and even starting our fire. It was a unique adventure the girls will remember forever!

Weekend Trip to The Specialty Crop

Chris and Katie are amazing host. They make you feel right at home. Thank you for sharing your amazing farm. I stayed in the cabin and it did not disappoint. The dog and the cats were very welcoming and friendly. The views were amazing. I am so glad I decided to stay and I will share this place with my family and friends that may be passing through. Thank you again.

Weekend Trip to Bear Den Cabins & Camp

Although I am new to Hipcamp I can say without a doubt that what Tammy has here is special. She greeted us as soon as we got there and even introduced us to other campers there as well. It was a small gesture, but still very nice. The amenities are fabulous and the bathrooms were awesome! We will definitely be back when we have more time to stay!

Weekend Trip to Uncle B's Produce Farm

Magical Stay at Uncle B’s – A Hidden Gem! We had such a great time at Uncle B’s! From the moment we arrived, Brian made us feel right at home. He greeted us with fresh eggs, a s’mores pack, and some fun hippy gear to get us in the spirit. He personally walked us over to the hippy bus and gave us a full tour, showing us everything we needed to know—from how to unlock the door to the fun variety of lighting options and the great music playing on a loop (which we ended up loving!). The bus itself was amazing—cozy, clean, and way more comfortable than we expected (honestly, the bed was more comfortable than the one I have at home!). There were speakers both inside and out, so we could enjoy music wherever we were relaxing. The property is peaceful and full of charm, with plenty of spots to explore. We loved the hidden fairy garden, the troll under the bridge, and all the friendly animals roaming around—dogs, kittens, peacocks, turkeys, chickens, guineas, and more! The bathroom and shower were clean and convenient—a great added touch that made the stay even more comfortable. We would absolutely recommend staying at Uncle B’s and hope to come back again soon. Thanks for such a unique and memorable experience, Brian!

2 nights at Bear Den Cabins & Camp

We loved staying with Tammy and Tim. They provide lots of amenities, the place was clean and all the campers were friendly. Fire pits were great as it was rainy and cold while we were there. Couldn't ask for a better place to stay.

4 nights at Bear Den Cabins & Camp

Pristine and comforting are not words usually associated with camping, but if you stay here, that's what you'll find - a clean, comfy spot to get away. Tammy cares for her land and the people who stay there. This is where you want to be! GO!

3 nights at Bear Den Cabins & Camp

Our stay was absolutely fantastic! It is in a perfect location for exploring the surrounding area. The bathrooms were kept extremely clean. The property itself is so beautiful and peaceful. Everything exceeded our expectations and we highly recommend!

4 nights at Stagecoach Stays

This was the perfect spot for my family road trip.

1 night at Battle Creek Camping Resort

We LOVED our stay at the Pine Tent! The tent was spacious enough for myself and my boyfriend and we had plenty of space for our bags. The coffee and smores was a gracious touch and the thoughtful hospitality was through the roof with additional blankets, towels, games, and outdoor accessories. If you are hesitant about a bath house, don't be with this one. It was the best of both worlds for someone like me who wants to enjoy camping but with a little more features. We will definitely be coming back!

Weekend Trip to Uncle B's Produce Farm

This was my very 1st experience with HipCamp and I was blown away by Brian's farm property and the Hippie Bus! It was such a unique experience for my boys (2 yr old son + 8 year old doggo) and I. We loved the privacy of the property, the extras that were included and Brian's helpfulness as a host. Everyone we met there were completely great. It was fun to be able to let my dog (well behaved - not a runner) be able to enjoy off leash time in the grassy space. I highly recommend taking a journey back through time & staying on the hippie bus. Comfy bed, still camping but no mess or fuss with setting up a tent.

Weekend Trip to Bear Den Cabins & Camp

We were so impressed with this property. Tammie is an amazing host, and thought of everything we could possibly need. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were SO CLEAN! We plan to be return campers here, it's an ideal location for visiting the Black Hills and Custer State park. So much to do and see in just a short drive.

Weekend Trip to Bear Den Cabins & Camp

Tammy is an incredible host - a warm and lovely person. She's created a community that she cares a lot about and it shows in every detail. As a backpacker herself, she knows what a private campsite like this needs. She's got two great covered shelters, a super upscale shower/bathroom area, access to a washer dryer, spigots with fresh potable water, and each tent/cabin has it's own fire bowl that you can cozy up to. She met us to give us a tour and answer any questions even though we rolled up much later than we had meant to. She also told us about the other guests and encouraged us to introduce ourselves - which was lovely. We were super well-located for Custer State Park and Badlands.

Weekend Trip to Uncle B's Produce Farm

It was very nice and quiet. Very clean bathrooms and the best showers we’ve seen so far. Rooster, turkeys, chickens and peacocks, were on the place. Brian was very accommodating and great to talk to.

2 nights at Bear Den Cabins & Camp

If this site does not win “hip camp of the year”, I will be shocked! If you ever need a place to stay to venture into Custer State Park or the Black Hills in South Dakota stay here! I can’t say enough about what a wonderful place this is. It is a quality site, clean, has everything you need, And the owners could not be friendlier. I’ve been to nearly 10 hip camp sites now and this is by far the best. It is a nice drive to and from the site.

2 nights at Uncle B's Produce Farm

We loved staying in the Hippie Bus for a night - a really "cool" and unique accomodation in the middle of a farm! The queen size bed was very comfortable and the decor was all out hippie. Brian has done a great job fixing up the inside of the bus with lighting, music and a fun landscape mural across the windshield. The next two nights we "camped" out in the Barn Loft, out of the rain and wind. The loft is complete with queen size bed, TV, shower, fridge, stove, coffee maker and microwave. It truly is the barn loft, with a well used barn below. The chickens, turkeys and peacocks are entertaining to watch from the loft window. It was a very quiet and peaceful place to read and relax. And Brian left a dozen of farm fresh eggs for our breakfast! Brian is a great host. He checks up daily to see if anything is needed and very responsive. The sites are all mowed, the bathrooms, bus, and loft were clean, firewood and water is available. Each site has a fire pit. Uncle B's was a wonderful experience and a highlight of our summer travels! We plan to visit again soon!

Brian has done a great job fixing up the inside of the bus with lighting, music and a fun landscape mural across the windshield.

Glamping in South Dakota guide

Overview

Whether you're visiting Mount Rushmore, hiking Badlands National Park, or fishing and kayaking along the Missouri River—South Dakota has enough outdoor adventures to tempt campers to the region. You don't need to trek into the backcountry or rent an RV to experience the state's iconic sites and natural wonders, though. Glamping offers the ideal alternative for those who prefer a comfy bed and a few home comforts, and heated glampsites provide options for those visiting outside of the main camping season (May through October). Book a luxury safari tent just minutes from the Custer State Park and Mount Rushmore, go glamping in the heart of the Black Hills National Forest, or choose a comfy glampsite with an outdoor hot tub and gas fire pit within easy reach of Wind Cave National Park. To escape the crowds, how about a romantic treehouse getaway or a cozy log cabin in the woods?

Glamping in South Dakota: What is glamping?

In South Dakota, glamping is a type of outdoor stay combining camping's nature setting with the luxury and convenience of comforts like beds, warm showers, or electricity. When glamping in South Dakota, there's no need to bring your own tent—instead, glampers may stay the night in a cabin, a vintage Airstream, a canvas bell tent, a yurt, or even a treehouse.
