Book a peaceful and beautiful site on a private creek. The Redwater Revival Campground joined Hipcamp and was open during the 2020 summer season. Herb met and accommodated many wonderful guests and had a blast doing it. The red bluff in the background was a very strategic vantage point for early Indigenous Americans for hunting game that roamed the creek bottom. 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. They are sneaky little buggers that can actually hear your footsteps when you are fishing along the bank. Please make sure that you stay with us for some very restful mesmerizing sleep along our part of the creek at the Redwater Revival Campground.

This Campground is fantastic. The tent area was away from the Camper area which provided a quiet, peaceful experience! The bathroom/shower house was very clean and accessible. The front desk employees were extremely friendly and helpful. The delivery of wood and ice is a bonus for everyone! Highly recommend!

Private yet vast. The sky was amazing at night! Denny was responsive and quick to communicate. He wasn’t around when we booked the site (at the last minute) so he had his neighbor (Bob- a friendly older gent) get us all set up. It was accommodating and a perfect holdover spot for us for the night. Interesting to learn the history of the area!

We stayed one night at Black Hills Campground and it was exactly what we needed. My husband and I were the only guests, which made it incredibly quiet and peaceful. The facilities were well-kept, with hot showers and clean toilets available. It was a wonderfully restful stop and we left feeling refreshed. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a calm, comfortable place to stay.

1 night at Redwater Revival Campground

Directions were very easy to follow and set up of campsites was logical and well spaced apart. We were the only ones there that night. Stayed at site 4. The toilet was a portable unit. Very clean. We got surprised that the water was turned off for the season but our host brought us water from his place which was plentiful. We recommend!

Big Pine Campground is phenomenal! Super friendly and helpful staff, amazing tent sites that feel like you are truly in a pine forest…with the conveniences of hot showers and toilets near by, a win-win! My husband and I enjoyed our time here, the town of Custer is just a mile down the road with lots of restaurants, coffee shops, and attractions nearby. Would highly recommend this property!

Car is parked at end closest to incoming lane. This is the first, but most private, site.

The site was perfect. They had a laundry and game room which added to the great facility. I loved that the picnic table had a roof over it on every site, it really helped when it rained for a bit.

The famous red bluff near Beulah, Wyoming, that overlooks the campsites.

Weekend Trip to Black Hills Meadow

Space was very clean and quiet! Shower room and bathrooms clean and easy to find. Was a bit tough to find the silo in the dark- but host was very helpful and gave us directions. Don't stay in this place of there's any hint of rain- the mental roof leaves little to the imagination. Sounded like a herd of cattle going across the roof when it rained.
