What a beautiful hidden gem of a COE park. Primitive camping. Flush toilets, no showers. Some sites have shade others just a little. Looks like most sites are fairly level, depending on your RV size. Picnic tables, fire rings provided. Payable water spigot at the bathroom. No dump station. Has a nice playground area for kiddos

Stayed overnight. Pretty place. Campsites are not overly spacious...at least number 6 isn't. While potable water is listed as an amenity I only saw the standpipe in the camp host spot. No other access in the campground or in the picnic area. We're going back and I'll update this if I find out I'm wrong. UPDATE:There is a water spigot on the front of the bathroom building. Not easy to see. Parking area in front is pretty tight and I had to back in to get close enough.

Nice small campground, we were on site 18. Had a beautiful view. Only issue is you had to go into Hot Springs to dump.

This was a great little campground. Only had about 20 sites so it was nice and quiet. Had some trees for some shade in some sites. The restrooms were in pretty good shape and had running water. We slept in a tent but it looks like all sites had plenty of room for campers or RVs. This was about 20 minutes from Wind Cave a National Park and about 1 hour away from both Mount Rushmore and Jewel Cave National Monument.

Great location. fantastic sites, lots of really big(deep) sites suitable for long rigs, well maintain, flushable toilets & sinks (1 pit toilet too), kids playground, just above the Lake. Camp host is unobtrusive, but the park ranger is really annoying doing rounds after dark between 9 & 10 pm. Drives around with headlights on stopping to mess with reservation signs while his headlight are pointed directly into camps blinding everyone and he takes multiple minutes at each stop. Really shouldn't be making those rounds at that time or at least have the courtesy to not use headlights the entire time Overall a really great campground!!
