3. Cottonwood Springs Lake

14 sites · Hot Springs, South Dakota

Feel like nestling yourself in the sanctuary of evergreen trees in the rugged black hills for a while? How about throwing in a clean and peaceful lake to float on, and the chirpings of songbirds to listen to? If that sounds like your cup of tea then a visit to Cottonwood Springs Lake is in order. This is a sweet little spot for nature lovers to get away, try a little fishing or hiking, and camp primitive style to get back to the land good and proper. The lake only allows electric motored boats, so you can expect to find some quiet here. Slow down and let Mother Nature work her magic on you for a change, and you’ll be fresh as a spruce tree in no time.

4. Buffalo Gap National Grassland

1 site · Fairburn, South Dakota

Looking for a wide-open expanse of land to pitch your tent and watch the world go by? The Buffalo Gap National Grassland is the second largest of its kind in the country. With very little development or amenities, it’s a truly wild destination with a surprising diversity of plants, animals, and awesome back-country vibes. So what can you do on these 600,000 acres of wild prairie land? You can scope the land for wildlife, including the rare black-footed ferret, hunt for rocks in a rich geological landscape, hike, ride your trusty horse, zip around on your ATV, camp under a blanket of stars, photograph the incredible scenery, and fall in love with the great outdoors. You won’t have to avoid the crowds here, unless of course it’s a herd of buffalo. Get away from it all at Buffalo Gap National Grassland.

5. Cold Brook Lake

14 sites · Hot Springs, South Dakota

A visit to Cold Brook Lake will chill you out and warm your heart. Why? Because it’s a recreation and relaxation haven where you can accomplish all your fishing, swimming, paddling, and chillaxing goals in the company of Mother Nature. It doesn’t get much better than that! Fishing docks and cleaning stations make this a no brainer spot for anglers to cast their lines. There is also a swimming beach where you can beat the summer heat. In the winter, you could visit for some ice fishing, skating, or cross country skiing. Of course, you also have camping options to make this a full vacay. Bring the fam, the canoe, the picnic treats, and make this place your go to spot!

6. Black Hills National Forest

337 sites · South Dakota

Beyond Mount Rushmore, explore 1.2 million acres of forested mountains.

7. Nebraska National Forests and Grasslands

72 sites · Chadron, Nebraska

Ahhh, the heartland. Wide open spaces of undeveloped land in which to spread your wings and find some breathing room. Nebraska National Forests and Grasslands is one of these places, comprised of two forests of ponderosa pine and three grassland areas. Come here to set up your temporary little house on the prairie and be a pioneer camper for a while! Wandering and exploring is unrestricted for non-motorized travel here, meaning freedom is yours for the taking! If you don’t want to just head into the abyss, try visiting the nation's oldest federal tree nursery (awww, baby trees!), or the largest extinct bison boneland in the world at the Hudson-Meng Bison Research Center. Or, head to Soldier Creek Wilderness Area for a little rewilding and backcountry exploration. Keep your eyes peeled for prairie dogs and wildflowers popping their cute little heads up, rock formations dotting the landscape, and magic around every turn. There’s a lot going on in that grass!
