With kids

Great, little campground. Tammy and Tim are super friendly and have an eye for details to make your stay is super nice. Hugely recommended!

We loved camping on Tammy’s land! There were some other families and couples nearby and it was nice to meet everyone else at the campsite.

2 nights at Bear Den Cabins & Camp

Very kind and attentive host-SUPER clean and awesome bathrooms, ice, laundry, etc….

The atmosphere is calming and peaceful, away from any hustle and hustle of tourism. Bears Den is less than an hour from any popular attraction in the area, including Mt Rushmore and the Crazy Horse Memorial. Available are some canvas tents, set up like a bedroom at home. Also available is a small cabin, as well as sites to set up your own tent. I was able to use my hammock, with a few trees close enough to do so, in my tent site. Tammy is very warm and welcoming Hostess. She'll do anything within her power to make you feel more comfortable. She helped make my South Dakota visit the best I could imagine.

7 nights at Rustic Rendezvous

This was an amazing spot to camp, and I will definitely return! Beautiful property, felt like I was living in the forest. Lynn and Rod were very kind, offering info on things to see. Thank you so much for sharing your property ❤️ 😊

4 nights at HTR Black Hills

Clean and well laid out campground. Everything is tucked in the trees, so plenty of shade. Lots for kids to do with mini golf, bags, pool, and live music Friday evenings. This was a solo trip, but will definitely be bringing the family back!

Weekend Trip to Horse Creek Resort RV Sites

Great slice of paradise right along the creek. Shower house in easy walking and plenty of space to roam and watch the night sky.

3 nights at HTR Black Hills

We stayed in the glamping tent! It was so cute and well laid out! The rainfall shower was relaxing and had the best water pressure. The description of the tent said one queen bed and one twin over full bunk- it was definitely twin over twin so max stay would be 4 people. And I know it’s outside and camping but there were a ton of spiders:) No complaints as it is camping but it surprised me how many of those little guys made their way in to the tent! The campground was clean and so many things to do including swimming, hot tub, jumping pillow, horseshoes, mini golf, live music and food truck on Friday night. The campground does sit on a busy highway so the pool and golf area are a bit noisy- the campsites close to the road would likely hear traffic noise as well. The glamping sites are in back of the park and very quiet with a nice forest view. It was really close to a ton of area attractions- we did Bear country 2 minutes away, Cosmos mystery area 10 minutes away, Mount Rushmore 20 minutes away, and Custer State Park about 35 minutes away! 10 minutes to Rapid City businesses if you need groceries or forgot something.

Weekend Trip to Battle Creek Camping Resort

Battle Creek was perfect for us! Unique lodging, clean, dark, quiet. Took a nice walk. Greeted by wild bunnies… would absolutely stay here again! The aliens were a riot! You have a great thing going here!

4 nights at Bear Den Cabins & Camp

Tammy was so kind. The campground was wonderful and very clean

Weekend Trip to Tent camping near a pine forest

Great place to camp! Showers were hot. Sites were close, but far enough apart to feel alone when sitting around the fire pit. Pine trees and the views were beautiful. Host was super accommodating for late night arrival as we were coming from a view states over. Will definitely stay here again if we're in town! Super close to Black Hills National Forest and Wind Cave for nature lovers!

Weekend Trip to Bearded Buffalo Resort

We only stayed one night at Bearded Buffalo, but it was a great stop. Super easy in and out with big, full hook-up sites — perfect for our RV. It’s really close to Custer State Park, which made it ideal for exploring before we hit the road again. The property is peaceful with a nice creek running through the back side. The hosts were friendly, and everything was clean and well-maintained. They have a few nice looking cabins there but I didn’t go inside. Also the bathhouses were clean with nice showers. Wish we had more time to stay, but it worked out perfectly for a quick, hassle-free stop. We’d come back!

4 nights at Horse Creek Resort RV Sites

We loved our stay here. We were on the lower section of land and the view is beautiful. It's quiet and peaceful and our kids had room to explore and run! The sites and surrounding area are kept well maintained and clean. When we asked if we could extend our stay by a day, Garret was quick to respond! We will recommend this campground to others and hope to stay here with our family in the future.

Weekend Trip to Horse Creek Resort RV Sites

Beautiful campsite close to Sheridan Lake and the Black Hills NP. Very charming green space with tall evergreen trees and great for birding!

3 nights at Custer Valley View RV Camp Spot

My wife and I loved our stay at Denny and Cindy’s location. They were incredible hosts and enjoyed meeting them. Beautiful location and views. Great setup with full hookups. Perfect location between Custer and Hot Springs. The perfect spot if you would prefer a little more seclusion. Thank you Denny and Cindy for your sharing your little slice of heaven with us.

3 nights at Lake Park Campground

Tammy and Tim were fantastic hosts. They made everything so easy for us. Tammy was very responsive and helpful, too. Perfect place to stay. Highly recommend!

We loved staying here! The camp was clean and awesome spot to stay! It was close to lots of things we wanted to do while in the hills! The staff were helpful and friendly!

2 nights at Horse Creek Resort

Such a great place to camp! The just, Joey, was Incredible and went above and beyond to make my stay perfect.

1 night at Plenty Star Ranch Retreat

A serene, hidden gem tucked away from the hustle and bustle. The bathroom and shower were a refreshing oasis amidst a sea of campgrounds.
