We stayed for a week October 2025. Our truck broke down on the way, we were not sure if we had to cancel. The owner was extremely accommodating and fair. This campground is perfect. Mature trees and flat spots. Uber clean private shower bathrooms. We rode electric bikes, close to downtown Custer and the Michelson trail goes as long as you can. Close to the popular tourist spots. Bike ride into downtown Custer with eating spots and grocery store. Owners are engaged and work hard to keep it clean. He’s also a Vet- so many thanks for his service to our country. We will be back for sure.

This is my second time here in the same spot. The bathrooms are clean and staff is friendly. The crowd is quiet and respectful. There is laundry on site, firewood for sale, and I believe they sell propane. The wildlife is everywhere. I have had deer, turkey, and rabbit within 50 feet. Awesome place!

A wonderful place to stay, with the sweetest family as owners. When we were there (mid-August), we were nestled in the trees, and it was quiet. There's plenty to do here if you have a family, and the campground has some unique lodging if you arrive without a camper or RV. You are close to town (Custer). I would definitely stay here again, and recommend it.

My family and I stayed 3 nights at this campground. 2 nights were tent sites and our last night was in a keg cabin. We had two teens and a 6 year old, my husband and myself. The land is beautiful! The grounds were well taken care of. The cleanest bathrooms and showers on any campsite we’ve seen. Private!! Not multiple stalls per bathroom. Wild life so close to the sites, regularly!! (Rabbits, turkeys, deer, beautiful birds, not predator wild life). We met the owners and many workers and talked to them many times during our stay. They’re so nice and accommodating. We saw many camp sites in Custer, and knew we picked the right one! We moved from a tent site to a keg on our last night in the hills and check out was at 11, check in was at 1 and no one was in the keg so they gave us a key to the keg to move our items early. My kids played at their fort style park, including my teenagers, and they said it was their favorite playground ever! Prices felt very fair. Site is very close to many sight seeing and tourist activities. Minutes from Custer state park. They have a cute store with ice and firewood available. By far our favorite ground during our trip. We will recommend to everyone and will definitely be back there to visit.

This campground is great! We stayed here for a week on family vacation and couldn’t be happier. Large flat sites, full hookups, clean bathroom and shower rooms, and plenty of shade. There is even a large play area for the kids. The staff were super friendly as well. The location was amazing as well. Close to Crazy Horse, Lake Sylvan, Mount Rushmore, Needles Highway, and Custer State Park. Minutes away from the conveniences of Custer too. Great restaurants and grocery stores super close. We’d definitely stay here again on our next visit to the Black Hills.
