Stories from the community

1 night at Tent camping near a pine forest

Great experience camping here. It was beautiful, spacious, quiet. Great showers and the hosts were very kind and informative. I look forward to coming back the next time I'm in the area.

Weekend Trip to Bear Den Cabins & Camp

What an amazing, peaceful place run by such a wonderful woman! I came to stay for 2 nights on my way home and it was the most peaceful, soul restorative experience I could've asked for. In addition to being incredibly quiet with lots of nature sounds, the bed in the tent was so comfortable and Tammy thought of everything one could need or want. Bath towels are provided for the hot showers in the most amazing bath house, with flush toilets, I've ever used at a campground, with soaps provided if needed. The bed has super cozy blankets and sheets, with more if you need. I also had a propane heater which was amazing as it was quite cold the first night. The propane powered fire bowl was INCREDIBLE and so perfect! Lanterns are provided if you don't have your own. I didn't take advantage of the cooking amenities but I would totally do so if staying longer/next time. Tammy herself is so kind and caring, she will definitely ensure you have everything you need and is lovely to have a chat with. The property is perfectly close to Custer State Park and not too far from Wind Cave and Badlands. With no doubts or hesitations, this was the absolute best place I've ever camped, my personal tent or otherwise. I can't exaggerate enough how much I loved this place.

Weekend Trip to Bear Den Cabins & Camp

This was an amazing place to stay! The property was beautiful and the amenities were clean and extremely nice. Tammy and Tim were extremely welcoming and kind. They allowed us over to meet their horses and pointed us in the direction of a trail on the property. They also gave us great recommendations for our next stops and places to visit. I felt safe and welcome here and would love to spend more time at bear den.

Weekend Trip to Tent camping near a pine forest

Absolutely loved our time here. Front desk staff so friendly and lovely, site was amazing with beautiful view, bathrooms clean. Also conveniently located to local attractions. Will stay here every time I pass through Custer. :)

2 nights at Horse Creek Resort

It was wonderful, easy access. Garrett was easy to communicate with. The campground was well maintained. Spaces were large and level. I highly recommend Horse Creek Resort.

2 nights at Lake Park Campground

Great spot that’s in a great location to explore ALL the parks and sites black hills forest has to offer and more. The camp itself is very clean and the facilities are awesome! Best showers at a camp I’ve been to recently.

1 night at Bear Den Cabins & Camp

Awesome place with incredibly friendly hosts Tammy and her husband Tim. Staying near cute horses named Dale and Daryl was a dream come true. Clean and welcoming bathrooms! Helpful laundry room with fresh ice and a dishwashing sink. Truly a delightful visit that will bring us back to Hermosa.

1 night at Bear Den Cabins & Camp

10 out of 10!! Tammy is a wonderful host who makes you feel welcome. The cabin was great stop and the bathrooms were extremely clean and well maintained. If we ever get back out west we definitely will stay here!

1 night at Redwater Revival Campground

Beautiful flat site right by the water. Big enough for our truck with roof top tent and awning to keep us out of the weather. The host’s written directions were also easy to follow for a first timer.

Weekend Trip to Eagle Lode

One of the most beautiful and relaxing places we have ever stayed! So close to stores etc but yet so remote it was wonderful. Had a turkey friend and chipmunks come visit us too. Highly recommend this location!!

Weekend Trip to Bearlodge Mountain Resort

Adorable accommodations, cute cabin, beautiful stay! Everything we needed to feel spoiled after a week of camping!

1 night at Eagle Lode

Amazing hosts, and the most beautiful site. Choose this place to find your serenity!

1 night at Bear Den Cabins & Camp

Such a beautiful area to explore and the cabin was cozy and comfortable. Tammy is so helpful and accommodating. She offers coffee, laundry facilities, a BBG and dining facility, and bags of ice available in the freezer. Amazing! We were only passing through but we will definitely come back for a longer stay so we can continue to explore the area. Thank you Tammy and Tim!

3 nights at Bear Den Cabins & Camp

Our stay was great! Tammy is very personable and communicative and the cabins were clean. Me, my sister, and dog felt very safe there. Awesome location between black hills, mt Rushmore, and badlands. Would 100% stay again

1 night at Horse Creek Resort RV Sites

What a beautiful space! We enjoyed a quick night here after a long day of travel, and I don’t know who enjoyed it most: us or the dogs. Just behind the campground we walked some of the trails of the Black Hills National land, and when we came back to camp, we appreciated the clean campground. The full hookups were appreciated, and the camp spaces large and spacious.

Weekend Trip to Bear Den Cabins & Camp

I had an awesome time out at Tammy’s land. The place is beautiful, and she’s super nice too. There were animals everywhere—just a great place all around.

2 nights at Bear Den Cabins & Camp

Tammy and Tim are wonderful hosts for a peaceful retreat they’ve built themselves! I will forever recommend this wonderful spot to anyone I know going to the area. They go above and beyond as hosts and have provided everything someone could need during a stay in one of their cabins or glamping tents. It is rustic but with the amenities to make things comfortable and easily reachable. Thank you to both of them for hosting myself and my parents in the larger of the cabins!

1 night at The Wilderness

I loved this spot, so remote. It is close to a dirt road, but i didnt hear a single car past 9pm. I highly recomend 4 wheel drive or a higher clearance vehicle if you want to go deeper into the sight, a Smart Car can only make it to the first camping spot. Beautiful spot to watch the sunrise over the hills.

1 night at Bear Den Cabins & Camp

Tammy and Tim are lovely people. Their land is gorgeous, and the warm welcome and thorough communication made my trip a breeze. The shared spaces, such as cooking areas, laundry and shower rooms were immaculate and the privacy of the lil bear den was perfect for me as a solo female traveler. I highly recommend this spot and these hosts :)

1 night at Bearlodge Mountain Resort

We loved our stay at Bearlodge in Sundance! It was super convenient being right off the interstate and easy to find at night after we left Mt. Rushmore! Easty hook up and a beautiful scenery, doesn’t get better than that! Easy walk to the laundromat and pizza place across the street but the pizza place was closed! Will def stay again!

Bearlodge Mountain Resort

28 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents10 acres · Sundance, WY

The Bearlodge Mountain Resort can be a quiet getaway from a hectic lifestyle, a base camp for hunting, an adventure-packed vacation, or a great spot to stay while you tour area attractions. Where "networking" is two pickups parked in the middle of the road so that their drivers can visit. Where we go grocery shopping in the woods during the fall. Where "neighbors" might live two hours away or just down the road. Where directions are given in "north and south" instead of "right and left". Life's a little slower, people a little more sincere and a handshake still means something! PLEASE READ: IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR TENT CAMPING: I don't have any shower or bathroom facilities. The closest place I know of is the Conoco a mile north of my place on Cleveland St. They have a truck stop and I'm told the shower is nice. There is a chance I won't be on site to greet you, but so far everyone has been incredibly respectful and found some great places to put up a tent. I trust you!

The rest of this exciting story will have to be heard when you get here. The Redwater Creek is full of Brown and Rainbow trout.
