Nice campground would stay again. They had good WiFi, and real helpful staff. We arrived late on Sat afternoon Laborday weekend and they fit us in. I would come back anytime. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Great place, very quaint. The owner's and staff extremely helpful and full of knowledge about the area. Nice thing: when we pulled in we were taken on a golf cart tour of the place to pick out which site we would like of the available sites. Nice trees and very relaxed environment. Our kids even got to bottle feed baby farm animals, a highlight for them. This is the type of place that makes you feel at home, even when you are on the road. We camped here in a Motorhome.

Awesome park. Has nice shade trees. Pool was nice, clean and heated just right. The showers cost 25 cents and are a bit old but clean. The owners can provide dog walking and babysitting service for your dogs too! We will take our dog knowing that next time. Nice store and the owners live on site and are very nice. Convenient sewage dump on the way out. Great family oriented camp. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Signage to campground good. Access road in to campground appears to be a little narrow but in reality fine. Large area to park and register. Office staff friendly and efficient. Access roads to site wide, paved and well maintained. Large pull-thru sites with concrete pads and plenty of grass between each site. Beautifully landscaped. Good infrastructure typical of a modern full RV resort. Good pet facilities and good shower and laundry blocks. Good location for visiting the Black Hills. Would certainly stop here again. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We stayed at this park for a week (9/9 - 9/16), after originally planning to stay in the (less expensive) Spearfish City Campground. The other reviews on this park are spot on. Due to the late season, there was only one other motorhome and us staying here for the full week, most other rigs overnighted, or stayed 1-2 days before moving on. The park is great, although the lack of shade may be an issue during the hot months; in the fall, winds may be an issue due to the parks exposed location and lack of trees. Park staff is helpful with nice amenities, and very clean facilities. We will definitely stay here again if we're back in the black hills area. We camped here in a Motorhome.

This is an outstanding RV park. We are full-timers and have stayed in parks across the country and this is one of the best. I cannot, for the life of me, figure out what the previous reviewer was complaining about. Park is conveniently located to I-90 but far enough away so that road noise is not a problem. Sites are very spacious and well spaced so that you do not feel cramped. This park can accomodate big rigs, even those towing car-hauler trailers. Utilities are conveniently located, in good condition and fully functional. If you cannot find this park by following the signage from I-90, you must be driving with a bag over your head. You can't miss it. Park has immaculate showers and lavatories, a large swimming pool and two hot tubs, two tennis courts and a basketball court. Pay heed to the following: the various rows in the parks have the concrete pads with picnic tables placed in different locations for various types of RVs. Check the pad location before selecting a site to find the row which is suitable for your RV. The park is located near Deadwood and is a good home base for touring all the Black Hills attractions. I can only think of a few parks in the country which are as well designed as this one and as well maintained. We highly recommend this park. We camped here in a Motorhome.

There are about 62 full hookup sites and the rest are tent sites. The campground is very clean and in super condition. The problem I have with this campground is that I can't imagine how crowded it would be if all the sites were taken. A lot of the pull-thru's do not have enough room for a toad. The back-ins do not have room for a tow vehicle. I can't imagine where people park if the campground is full. It seems as if every available space is taken up by a campsite. There are few places to walk a dog and avoid campsites. We were there in September and it was very nice because there were just a few campers. We also picked this campground because it advertised free wifi. Upon checking in I was told that they don't have wifi available, except just outside of the office (there is no room in the office to sit with a laptop). I had to use my car as an office because of the low temperature and sit in front of the office to receive a signal. I would only stay here again if it were the off season and did not care about wifi. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

We stayed in the lower part of the park. Sites are too close together. Close to I-90 and other roads, but not much traffic noise. No WIFI in this area of the park. Not enough room to park our T/V at the site, we had to park it at an empty site behind us. Many others did the same. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

There are 2 campgrounds right next to each other off I-90, Mountainview was the first, so we pulled in mainly because we saw they had WiFi. The couple who run the place were very friendly and helpful, with smiles on their faces. We were directed to a site adjacent to the restrooms and showers, which were immaculate -- 3 showers with privacy doors, sparkling clean. The WiFi is the strongest signal we had on our nearly 4,000 mile trek through the western US. The laundry room is in a cute little cabin with a front porch and nice patio furniture. A great place to sit and read while doing the laundry. They have an ad in one of the many travel mags you can find on the Black Hills with a 10% coupon. With our coupon and no cable TV, we paid $21. Would definitely stay there again. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

Great park with a convenient location. Make sure you visit the Historic Fish Hatchery across the street. It's really enjoyable. The only thing keeping it from being a "10" is that some sites limit the ability to back a larger trailer into. We camped here in a Fifth Wheel.

We chose this park to stay in during our 2007 Black Hills fall vacation, to some extent based upon the reviews on this site. This park is beautifully located in Spearfish, with lots of shade trees and nice concrete walks along Spearfish Creek. The sites seemed cramped, with campers 'butting up' to each other without a lot of space between sites. The electric, water, and sewer hookups are located at the end of the site, requiring long sewer and electric hoses. The "killer" for us was the fact that the roads are narrow with very close shade trees, which were not trimmed very well. The site assigned to us had trees framing the entrance, and maneuvering the coach into the spot was a challenge. The trees also were so low as to hit the roof of the coach. The staff was very nice, and tried to find us a spot that was less crowded and less treed, but all the more open ones were already taken. It appeared that there were some paved spots right next to the creek, which would have worked well for us, but they also were not available (even though one of them was empty) - we ASSUME these are "long timer" spots, judging by the 'gardens' etc around the rigs parked there. While this is a very nice park, with very nice and helpful staff, the number of "big rig friendly" spots is very limited. In the end, we received a full refund and stayed at Elkhorn Ridge instead. We camped here in a Motorhome.

I agree this is a great place, especially for a city campground. Wonderful, huge shade trees and grass throughout the park, plus a bike path to Spearfish Canyon or into town, and with a City Park with playground and fish hatchery. I came here based on this website reviews' and wasn't disappointed. Only negatives are the sewer and hookups are all way back and hard to reach. And the showers were in a separate building from the bathrooms, and not always clean. My site was close enough to the office that the free WiFi worked. This park is nicer than a lot of private places, and the rate is fair ($26 plus tax). Cable TV is outstanding. Decent space between sites, and all are level gravel,with a picnic table. We camped here in a Motorhome.

We enjoyed this campground. The staff was extremely helpful and happy. We had a minor problem with our hitch and they were quick to provide a couple of tools I needed to repair. The services all worked great. Our original assigned site was full sun, but the staffer suggested an alternate shaded site, checked its availability, and moved us right over. We were there 5 days and loved the area and campground. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Pull-through sites, pretty level, no shade. Bathrooms weren't the cleanest I've seen. Wi-fi didn't work and the staff didn't seem to care that it didn't work. I only saw kids working in the office - none of them could have been over 18. They weren't very professional. The pool looked clean. Watch your step - dog owners didn't clean up after their pets very well! We camped here in a Travel Trailer.

Ribs were great at $9.99 half rack. Buffalo burgers tasted like costco sirloin frozen patties and tasted very ordinary. For two tablespoons of cold beans, three pieces of lettuce, a slice of tomato and a slice of pickle with the buffalo pattie and bun you pay $7.50! Go with the ribs. All you can eat ice cream between 7-8pm was good value. Pool is very simple and small and drops from 3-5 feet VERY quickly. My son slipped under the rope when others were playing with it. Fortunately my other son saved him! Merit badge for son number ! Great store even though it was 50% memory maker stamp album stuff. Obviously a side business. Great selection of international beers and close proximity to a small river for fishing makes this place a good stop for Deadwood, Mt. Rushmore and Crazy Horse. Kids park is very good and the cleanliness was the big factor. Not as amazing as Mt. Rushmore KOA which is high and offers everything but well placed next to the I-90 and within 10 minutes of Deadwood, an hour to Rushmore and 40 minutes to Crazy Horse. Mt. Rushmore $8.00... Crazy Horse $25. That was a big thing. Crazy Horse was like flea market with everyone trying to sell you something and the face in the mountain six times as far away as the faces on Rushmore. Rushmore was excellent. We camped here in a Travel Trailer.
