Mount Rushmore/Hill City KOA – Hill City, SD
Of all the campgrounds my family and I have visited, Mount Rushmore/Hill City KOA is the best! They have horse stables, a restaurant, 2 pools, a waterslide, an ice cream store, and plenty of wilderness to explore. Mount Rushmore is close by too.
My kids had a magical time and beg me to go back even [...]
Big Pine Campground – Custer, SD
Big Pine is a GREAT campground. We stayed there in July 2007. Every site is nestled in the pine trees, and the bathhouse was sparkling. When we did not have what we needed to level our trailer (we were relatively new to camping) the owners were very helpful, supplying us with what we needed. Also, when the little store did not have an item we needed, they were happy to suggest where to find it elsewhere in Custer.
The Roost Resort – Custer, SD
If you can’t find an RV park or campground near Custer, South Dakota, you just aren’t looking. The billboards and signs are a distraction from the natural beauty of the area. Most places we saw from the road were no-shade, lined-up tight RV Parks. If you read enough of my stuff, you know we seldom make reservations. I had a list of three places to look at, and Roost Resort was a decisive winner.
They really feature top-of-the-line cabins and cottages, and have a small campground in the back of the property. Class A’s and large 5ths would be pushing the envelope here. There’s only a few sites on the property, each with a great view of the Black Hills. Only two-way hook-up is available and a dump station upon departure. Everything about the property is clean, quaint and quiet.
Badlands Interior Campground – Badlands, SD
Here’s a good reason to be flexible in your travel plans. As a base to visit Wall, South Dakota and the Badlands, we planned to stay at the National Park Campground. When we got there in early September it was over 100 degrees hot. We don’t have a generator and the National Park does not have electric. We would have had to live without a fan of any kind!
Just a mile south you’ll find the Interior Campground and Motel. The sites are level gravel with little or no shade just like the National Park. For four dollars more, you can have full hook-up. We would have preferred the view from the National Park, but the heat was intense.
