Where adventure meets relaxation
Set up camp amongst the trees and babbling creeks, choose an RV resort, or stay at campgrounds with full amenities.
PRIVATE CAMPGROUNDS
Private campgrounds are as varied as the landscapes that surround them. These outdoor resorts offer more than the basics, with full amenities like electricity, pools, convenience stores, on-site dining, activities, rentals, showers, and laundry.
Private campgrounds like Custer’s Gulch RV Park and Campground can accommodate big rigs, pull-thrus, and full hookup sites, as well as cabins and tent sites.
Campgrounds like Happy Holiday Resort Campground, Rapid City KOA, and Mount Rushmore Lodge at Palmer Gulch Resort make for great family experiences.
GLAMPING
Experience adventure and convenience with glamping, or upscale camping. An unforgettable experience, glamping incorporates the peaceful ambiance of a private luxury tent with all the amenities of an upscale hotel, while still being set in the beautiful Black Hills and Badlands. Buffalo Ridge Camp Resort, near Custer, offers extensive glamping experiences in teepees, treehouses, and deluxe cabins.
CAMP IN OUR PARKS
Camp amongst the rugged backdrop of Badlands National Park or on the edge of the expansive prairie at Wind Cave National Park.
State park or recreation areas offer a wide range of modern to basic campsites, some designed for adventures on horseback. Campsites are also scattered throughout Black Hills National Forest. Book a stay at campsd.com.
BEYOND THE USUAL
Unique camping accommodations can be found at sites like Fort Welikit Family Campground, which has camping kegs. Other campgrounds offer yurts, treehouses, or covered wagon stays.
