Cheyenne RV Resort

42 RV Sites, 6 Cabins, 17 Tent Sites

In Cheyenne, Wyoming—the state capital at the junction of Interstate 25 and Interstate 80 where the High Plains meets the Laramie Range's foothills and the city's identity as the Cowboy Capital of the World is most fully expressed each July during Cheyenne Frontier Days, the world's largest outdoor rodeo and western celebration—Cheyenne RV Resort by RJourney provides full hookup 30 and 50-amp RV sites in pull-thru and back-in configurations, tent sites with water and electric (T01 through T11), a swimming pool, mini golf, a basketball court, a playground, a dog park, a pavilion, a convenience store, laundry, propane, firewood, WiFi throughout, ADA-accessible facilities, and banana bike rentals in a well-maintained resort that delivers the complete family campground experience at the crossroads of the two most traveled interstate highways in Wyoming. Full hookups, a pool, and mini golf in Cheyenne. Full hookup sites with 30 and 50-amp electric, water, and sewer in the pull-thru configuration that eliminates the backing challenge for larger rigs, and the T01-through-T11 tent sites with water and electric for the soft-side camper, provide the infrastructure variety that serves every arrival configuration at the I-25/I-80 interchange. The swimming pool, mini golf course, basketball court, playground, and dog park create the recreational infrastructure that keeps families entertained between the Frontier Days events and the Cheyenne city attractions, and the pavilion provides the shaded gathering space for the social campground activities that a resort-quality Wyoming campground provides. A convenience store handles the daily supply and sundry needs, laundry and propane fill manage the extended-stay logistics, and banana bike rentals offer the campground's most charming transportation option for the guests who want to explore the property at a pace that acknowledges the High Plains wind. Cheyenne sits in Laramie County at 6,062 feet on the High Plains where the semi-arid grassland landscape of southeastern Wyoming creates the backdrop for the state capital's governmental, military, and transportation functions. F.E. Warren Air Force Base, one of the oldest and largest Air Force installations in the United States, anchors the military component of the Cheyenne economy. The Wyoming State Capitol's gold dome and the extensive state government complex on Capitol Avenue provide the governmental center that Cheyenne's status as Wyoming's largest city and state capital sustains. Cheyenne Frontier Days, held the last full week of July each year, provides the world's largest outdoor rodeo with 10 days of PRCA rodeo performances, country music concerts, a military appreciation component, carnival midway, and the parade schedule that draws 200,000 visitors to the Frontier Park complex each year. The Cheyenne Frontier Days Old West Museum on the Frontier Park grounds provides the year-round exhibit of western heritage, rodeo history, and the carriage collection that interprets the city's frontier identity across the calendar. The Wyoming State Museum in the Barrett Building and the Historic Governors' Mansion on E. 21st Street provide the additional state history context accessible from the downtown Cheyenne core. Cheyenne RV Resort operates year-round in the Wyoming High Plains climate, where the warm summer months from June through September provide the peak camping season during Frontier Days and the family summer travel window, and the mild fall and spring shoulder seasons reduce the crowds while maintaining the city's full attraction calendar. The wind that defines Cheyenne's microclimate—consistent westerly and northwesterly winds from the exposed High Plains position—is part of the authentic Wyoming experience the resort delivers alongside the full hookup pad. Reserve your site at Cheyenne RV Resort and let the Cowboy Capital's Frontier Days, the state capital's western heritage, and the I-25/I-80 crossroads make Cheyenne the Wyoming overnight worth lingering over.

Pine Bluffs RV Resort

10 RV Sites

Pine Bluffs RV Resort in Pine Bluffs, Wyoming, offers 10 full-hookup RV sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 70 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout, directly off Interstate 80 on the Wyoming-Nebraska line. A general store, on-site dining, personal mailboxes, and walking trails serve travelers with more than the minimum for an overnight. Ten back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp, sized to 70 feet, with site WiFi. At 10 sites this is small, so reserve rather than counting on availability. A general store, on-site dining, laundry, propane fills and exchange, dump station, restrooms, showers, and personal mailboxes handle the practical side — the mailboxes point to the longer-stay guests the resort also serves. Each space rental includes four people, with a $5 charge for additional guests. Pets are welcome. Walking trails and hiking run from the property, with a state park nearby. The amenity set is genuinely more than an interstate rest stop, which is the resort's positioning. Pine Bluffs sits at the eastern edge of Laramie County's High Plains, where the vast grassland horizon of southeastern Wyoming meets the rolling sandhills of western Nebraska — one of the most open, sky-dominated environments in the American West. The town itself rewards a brief exploration beyond the exit. The resort operates on the I-80 corridor, with summer bringing the heaviest cross-country traffic. With 10 sites on a major interstate, reserve ahead for holiday weekends.

from $47/night

Cheyenne Sky RV Park

69 RV Sites, 4 Tent Sites

Cheyenne Sky RV Park in Wyoming offers 69 RV sites and four tent sites at the crossroads of I-80 and I-25, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 60 feet. Full-hookup back-in and pull-through categories join an electric-only back-in tier, with mature cottonwood shade, a playground, dog park, and general store. Sixty-nine sites span back-in electric only, back-in full hookup, and pull-through full hookup categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with site WiFi, sized to 60 feet. Read the category carefully — the electric-only tier carries no water or sewer at the site and prices accordingly, which is a useful option for a self-contained overnight. Four tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills and exchange, and restrooms handle the practical side. All guests check in at the main office and sign the terms — e-signature is encouraged in advance. A playground and dog park fill the grounds, with a golf course and a state park nearby. Pets are welcome. The cottonwood shade is worth calling out. Mature trees are a genuine rarity in the high-plains environment, and on a hot Wyoming afternoon the difference between a shaded site and an open one is substantial. Cheyenne sits where I-80 and I-25 meet, which makes it one of the most useful stops in the Mountain West, and the Wyoming State Capitol, the Cheyenne Depot Museum, and Curt Gowdy State Park are all close. Cheyenne Frontier Days in late July fills the entire city — reserve as early as you can for that week. Otherwise demand tracks interstate traffic, with summer the peak.

Hidden Lake Campground and Resort

18 RV Sites, 8 Cabins

Hidden Lake Campground and Resort in Hot Springs, South Dakota, offers 18 RV sites and eight cabins on a private lake in the Black Hills' southern tier, with 20, 30, and 50-amp full hookups and rigs accepted to 75 feet. Boat, kayak, and bike rentals sit on a property offering a more intimate alternative to the Hills' larger commercial campgrounds. Eighteen sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp in back-in and pull-through configurations, sized to 75 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Eight cabins serve guests without a rig. A general store, laundry, propane fills, restrooms, showers, firewood, and WiFi handle the practical side. The private lake anchors the experience. Boat rentals, kayak rentals, and paddle boats put guests on the water, with fishing, swimming, boating, canoeing, kayaking, and paddle boarding from the shoreline. Bike rentals, walking trails, hiking, biking, horseshoes, corn hole, a playground, and planned activities fill the rest, with strong stargazing and birding across the property. Pets are welcome. Hot Springs sits in Fall River County where the Black Hills give way to the high plains. Wind Cave National Park preserves the transition zone's grassland and underground cave ecology just north, with a state park nearby and the full Black Hills circuit within reach — but far enough from the core tourism corridor that the campground stays quiet. Summer is peak across the Black Hills, and the August Sturgis rally tightens availability regionally. With 18 sites and a private lake, reserve well ahead for July and August.

Windy Waters at Alcova

18 RV Sites

At 21500 Kortes Road alongside the red-hued sandstone bluffs of Alcova Reservoir in Alcova, Wyoming—in Natrona County in the high Wyoming desert where the North Platte River's impoundment behind Alcova Dam created the 2,470-acre reservoir with 117 miles of shoreline that Wyoming's fishing, boating, and windsurfing community built one of the state's most active freshwater recreation cultures around, in the specific empty-sky, red-rock landscape that defines Wyoming's geographic character at an elevation and aridity that no other state quite replicates—Windy Waters at Alcova provides full hookup RV sites on oversized lots with three boat ramps, bathhouses, laundry, WiFi, and two park model rentals in the year-round configuration that serves everything from one-night fishing camp stays to annual seasonal RV residents who spend the Wyoming summer at Alcova's waterfront. The three boat ramps, the oversized lots with boat trailer capacity, and the reservoir's direct adjacency define what Windy Waters is for. Oversized lots—formerly mobile home lot dimensions, providing space substantially larger than standard RV campground sites—accommodate a large motorhome or fifth wheel alongside the truck that towed it and a boat trailer without requiring any three to compete for the same footprint. Full hookup connections with 30 and 50-amp electric, water, and sewer serve the full range of RV electrical requirements. Three boat ramps on the property provide the most direct private reservoir launch access available at any Alcova campground, eliminating the state park boat ramp wait and the parking logistics that the Alcova State Recreation Area's high-traffic summer launch imposes. Bathhouses with toilet and shower facilities, washer and dryer laundry, a general store, and WiFi complete the daily infrastructure. Two fully furnished park model rentals serve guests without RVs or those transitioning between camping setups. Daily, weekly, monthly, seasonal, and annual site rental options reflect the range of guest relationships the property serves. Alcova Reservoir's 117 miles of sandstone and red shale shoreline provide the geological context that makes the lake visually distinctive from the conventional Great Plains reservoir. The reservoir's warm-water fish population—walleye, smallmouth bass, rainbow trout, and perch in the varied thermal layers—along with the wind conditions that the Wyoming high desert reliably generates make Alcova a dual-use water recreation site for both the fishing and the sailing and windsurfing community that the reservoir's specific fetch and prevailing southwest winds make ideal. The walleye fishery is among the most productive in Wyoming, and the spring walleye run draws the state's dedicated walleye fishing community to Alcova from across the region. Pathfinder Reservoir—adjacent to Alcova via the Fremont Canyon corridor—provides the second major reservoir fishing opportunity in the same North Platte River system, with brown trout in the freestone reaches below Pathfinder Dam and the cold tailwater fishery that the Miracle Mile section of the North Platte—one of the most celebrated dry-fly trout stretches in the Rocky Mountain West—extends downstream. Casper, 32 miles northeast, provides the commercial services and the historic Wyoming character that the state's oil-and-ranching culture built into the state's second-largest city. Windy Waters at Alcova is open year-round on the daily-through-annual rate schedule. Summer from June through August represents the peak reservoir recreation season for boating, fishing, and the swimming beaches that Wyoming's high desert sun warms to comfortable temperatures by late June. Ice fishing on Alcova Reservoir in December through February provides the cold-season recreation that Wyoming's long winters make viable for the dedicated ice fishing guest. Book the oversized lot, launch the boat at the private ramp, and let the red-rock reservoir earn the Wyoming high-country lake reputation that 117 miles of sandstone shoreline supports from every approach.

Bearded Buffalo Resort

Two miles from the entrance to Custer State Park in Custer, South Dakota—in the heart of the Black Hills where the granite dome geology, the open-range bison herd of nearly 1,400 animals in Custer State Park, and the concentrated national monument and cave heritage that positions Custer County as the most historically significant single county in South Dakota—Bearded Buffalo Resort provides 35 full hookup RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service, four spacious cabin rentals with full kitchens and private bathrooms, a general store, a turf play area with lawn games, and the Black Hills access that Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse Memorial, Jewel Cave, Wind Cave, and the 1880 Train make available within a radius that no South Dakota campground can match more completely than the Custer area concentration. The two-mile Custer State Park proximity and the four-cabin full-kitchen configuration define the resort's appeal for the family group that wants both the Black Hills outdoor access and the enclosed accommodation comfort. Thirty-five full hookup RV sites with 30 and 50-amp electric, water, and sewer in daily and seasonal configurations serve the RV camping market. Four cabin rentals—each with air conditioning, WiFi, a full kitchen, private bathroom, in-unit washer and dryer, two-vehicle parking, and provided linens and towels—provide the complete domestic setup for families or groups who want the Black Hills base camp in an enclosed space that the South Dakota weather system makes reliably practical from the Dakotas' spring to fall. A general store stocked with supplies and gifts serves the daily practical needs. A turf play area with lawn games provides the outdoor recreation for the youngest visitors. Dog park, pickleball courts, and a fire pit planned as additions will expand the recreation and social gathering options. The pet-friendly policy accommodates the canine travelers. Custer State Park's 71,000 acres contain the most ecologically diverse wildlife habitat in South Dakota's Black Hills managed for public recreation: the nearly 1,400-animal bison herd that roams the park's open-range interior grasslands in the largest publicly owned bison herd in the United States, the Prairie Dog Town that its anthropomorphic inhabitants populate in the specific social complexity that prairie dog colonies maintain in concentrated surface display, and the Needles Highway and Wildlife Loop Road scenic drives that produce the granite spire and wildlife encounter experience within a single state park that most national parks spread across hundreds of miles. Mount Rushmore National Memorial—30 minutes north—provides the presidential sculptural monument that Gutzon Borglum's 14-year carving project produced from 1927 to 1941, with the evening lighting ceremony from Memorial Day through Labor Day that illuminates the 60-foot faces in the context of an outdoor patriotic program. The Crazy Horse Memorial—continuing in construction since 1948 under the Ziolkowski family's direction as the world's largest mountain carving in progress—provides the specific counterpoint to Rushmore's presidential theme in the Lakota warrior's Korczak Ziolkowski-designed monument to Indigenous heritage. Jewel Cave National Monument's 212 miles of mapped passages make it the world's third-longest known cave system, with guided tours of its boxwork calcite crystal formations providing the most geologically specific cave tour in the Black Hills. Bearded Buffalo Resort is open seasonally through the Black Hills' camping calendar. Summer from Memorial Day through Labor Day fills the Custer area to capacity. The Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in August draws 700,000-plus riders to the Black Hills region annually—the single largest campground demand event in South Dakota. Reserve the cabin or hookup site well in advance for summer season, plan the Wildlife Loop Road bison drive at dawn, and let Custer County's two-mile park proximity earn the Black Hills concentration that South Dakota's most monument-dense corner genuinely delivers.

Cloud Nine Camping

Cloud Nine Camping in Hermosa, South Dakota, offers RV sites, tent camping, and cabin accommodations across 33 private acres enclosed by Black Hills National Forest on three sides, one mile off the highway between Rapid City and Custer. A general store, community fire pit, dump station, and sports courts serve a campground built around forest quiet rather than resort programming. RV sites and tent sites occupy the wooded acreage, with cabin accommodations for guests traveling without a rig. A dump station serves RV guests, and a general store stocks basics with firewood available on site. Restrooms and WiFi cover the practical needs. This is ponderosa pine country at roughly 4,800 feet, where the trees are large enough to give genuine shade and the national forest boundary begins at the property line. Pets are welcome. The forest setting is the draw. Hiking trails run off the back side of the property directly into national forest land, with walking trails on the grounds and sports courts and volleyball for on-site recreation. The dark, high-elevation sky makes for excellent stargazing, and the surrounding pine forest supports strong bird and wildlife watching. The campground positions itself explicitly as an alternative to the crowded, heavily developed campgrounds nearer the major attractions — guests get forest privacy without the remoteness penalty that adds an hour to every drive. Custer State Park is three miles south, Lakota Lake three miles, Center Lake six, and Mount Rushmore and Keystone seven. Grocery stores are in Hermosa and Hill City, with smaller convenience stores in Keystone. The campground serves the Black Hills summer season, when Mount Rushmore and Custer State Park traffic peaks. Reserve ahead for July and August, and note that the August Sturgis rally tightens availability across the entire region.

Painted Buffalo Resorts

Painted Buffalo Resorts in Hermosa, South Dakota, offers full-hookup RV sites with water, sewer, and electric alongside cabins in the heart of the Black Hills, between Rapid City and Custer. Site WiFi, picnic tables, propane fills and exchange, and a dump station serve a quiet property positioned away from the tourist congestion but within short reach of the Hills' major attractions. Full-hookup back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric with site WiFi and picnic tables. Cabins blend modern comfort with Black Hills character for guests traveling without a rig. A dump station, propane fills, and propane exchange handle the practical side. Pets are welcome. The property's value is its position and its quiet. A playground serves families, and the surrounding ponderosa pine ridges and granite outcrops at roughly one mile of elevation give the setting its high-plains mountain character. Picnicking areas and exceptional stargazing round out on-site use, with wine and beer tasting nearby. The Black Hills attractions fan out in every direction from Hermosa. Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse Memorial, Custer State Park's bison herds, and Wind Cave National Park are all a short drive, with both state and national park access close at hand. Positioning between Rapid City's activity and Custer County's wildlife concentration is the point — guests get the whole circuit without staying in the middle of it. Driving directions from Rapid City: take SD-79 south toward Custer, turn right onto SD-40 West, left onto Battle Creek Road, left at the first cross street onto Bender Ridge Road, right onto Box Canyon Road, right onto Outback Trail, then left on Sage Brush Trail. Summer is peak across the Black Hills. Reserve well ahead for July and August.

North Shore RV Park & General Store

8 RV Sites, 2 Cabins

North Shore RV and Store in Loveland, Colorado, provides a strategically located campground along US Highway 34 in the northern Front Range foothills, positioning guests at the eastern threshold of the Big Thompson River Canyon and within comfortable range of both the recreational lakes of Larimer County and the dramatic mountain terrain of Rocky Mountain National Park to the west. Serving as a practical gateway property for travelers transitioning between the Front Range urban corridor and the Rocky Mountain high country, the park combines solid utility infrastructure with an on-site general store that covers essential supply needs. Full hookup sites with water, electric, and sewer connections accommodate a range of RV sizes along the Highway 34 corridor, and the on-site general store functions as a one-stop resource for fuel, groceries, camping supplies, and the local information that first-time visitors to the canyon country need before heading into mountain terrain. The store's presence distinguishes North Shore from parks that require guests to drive to Loveland or Estes Park for resupply, a meaningful convenience for travelers arriving late or departing early in the mountain time window before weather changes. The northern Colorado Front Range landscape surrounding Loveland is defined by the dramatic transition from the flat Great Plains to the east and the suddenly vertical granite and gneiss peaks of the Colorado Front Range to the west—a transition that happens with a geological abruptness unusual even among mountain fronts. The Big Thompson River carves a steep, forested canyon through the hogbacks west of Loveland, following a drainage that has supported recreation, ranching, and water supply infrastructure for the Northern Colorado Water Conservancy District for over a century. Boyd Lake and Carter Lake, two state parks within Loveland's immediate vicinity, provide warm-water fishing, boating, and camping that supplement the colder mountain recreation available farther west. Rocky Mountain National Park, accessible via the Fall River Road entrance at Estes Park approximately 30 miles west of Loveland via Highway 34, protects over 415 square miles of alpine tundra, glacial valleys, and high-elevation peaks that include Longs Peak, the northernmost fourteener in Colorado. The park's wildlife—elk, mule deer, bighorn sheep, moose, and black bear—are regularly visible from roadside pullouts and popular trail corridors, and the Trail Ridge Road crossing provides the most accessible high-alpine drive in the Rocky Mountain National Park system when it opens in late spring. Fort Collins, home to Colorado State University and a thriving brewery and dining district, lies approximately 15 miles north of Loveland along US-287. North Shore RV and Store operates year-round, with summer representing the peak season when Rocky Mountain National Park visitation reaches maximum intensity and timed entry permits are required for the most popular park zones. Spring and fall offer genuine appeal for guests who want mountain access without summer crowds, and the park's proximity to Boyd Lake State Park extends the camping season with warm-water recreation options on either end of the high-country window. Advance reservations for summer weekends are recommended, and guests heading into the park should check timed entry permit availability well before departure.

Pine Haven Venue & Lodging

29 RV Sites, 30 Cabins

Pine Haven Venue & Lodging sits at the base of Storm Mountain in the Black Hills National Forest, 10 minutes from both Rapid City and Mount Rushmore — a beautifully designed family campground where 30 log cabins and 30 full-hookup RV sites are set across 19 forested acres in one of the historically and naturally richest landscapes in the American West. For families and groups who want comfortable, well-appointed lodging as a base for exploring the Black Hills, pine haven delivers a combination of location, design, and comfort that the broader Rapid City lodging market rarely achieves at the same price point. Log cabins sleep four to six guests with queen memory foam beds, a kid's loft, full kitchenettes, private bathrooms with stand-up showers, WiFi, smart TVs, and keypad self check-in — well-thought-out details that make arriving after a long road day genuinely pleasant. Full hookup RV sites include water, electric, sewer, fire rings, and picnic tables with 30/50-amp service. A dedicated event venue with a full liquor license, climate control, a large patio with outdoor fire pits, and bridal and groom suites handles weddings and group celebrations in a Black Hills National Forest setting that requires no additional decoration. A general store and laundry facilities round out the practical amenities throughout the property. Pets are welcome. The Black Hills National Forest surrounding Pine Haven is one of the most scenically varied landscapes in the American Great Plains — ponderosa pine ridgelines, granite spires, open meadows, and the sudden presence of carved presidential faces that make this corner of South Dakota genuinely unforgettable for first-time and returning visitors alike. Mount Rushmore National Memorial, 10 minutes from camp, consistently exceeds expectations at close range — the scale of the presidential portraits and the quality of the evening lighting ceremony are both more impressive in person than any photograph conveys. Crazy Horse Memorial, a few miles farther south, presents an even more ambitious sculpture-in-progress — the world's largest mountain carving, honoring the Lakota warrior in a multi-decade project that remains a living testament to the Ziolkowski family's commitment. Custer State Park provides 71,000 acres of Black Hills scenery with a bison herd of more than 1,300 animals roaming freely. Badlands National Park, roughly an hour east, adds a dramatically different geological character to any Black Hills itinerary. Pine Haven Venue & Lodging is a year-round destination, with summer representing peak season for Mount Rushmore and Black Hills recreation. The Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in early August creates a demand surge across the entire region — book well in advance for that first full week of August. The pine haven black hills location is equally worthwhile in the shoulder seasons when crowds thin and the national parks become genuinely easier to experience at your own pace.
