Grandview Campground & RV Park

50 RV Sites, 15 Tent Sites, 1 Onsite RV/Trailer

Grandview Campground and RV Park in Hardin, Montana, offers 52 RV sites and 15 tent sites with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, ADA-accessible sites, and rigs accepted up to 100 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout, behind a gated entrance. Full-hookup, electric-only, and dry back-in categories join deluxe and pull-through tiers, with a game room, sports courts, and boutique shop. Fifty-two sites span back-in full hookup, back-in 30/50-amp electric only, deluxe back-in full hookup, dry site back-in, and pull-through full hookup categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with site WiFi, sized to 100 feet, with picnic tables. Read the category carefully — the electric-only and dry tiers carry no water or sewer at the site, and they price accordingly. Accessible sites are available, and 100 feet handles the longest coaches. Fifteen tent sites, cabins, camper rentals, and trailer rentals round out the lodging. A general store, boutique shop, laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, and recycling handle the practical side. A game room, sports courts, tennis, billiards, walking trails, a playground, and picnicking fill the grounds, with a river nearby, wine and beer tasting, and planned activities through the season. Hardin is the seat of Big Horn County and the gateway to the Little Bighorn Battlefield National Monument. The campground is third-generation family run. Summer is the short, intense Montana season, with the June battle anniversary and reenactments drawing crowds. Reserve well ahead.

The Longhorn Ranch Lodge & RV Resort

46 RV Sites, 7 Tent Sites, 5 Lodges

The Longhorn Ranch Lodge & RV Resort in Dubois, WY, offers 46 full-hookup RV sites, 5 lodge rooms, and 7 tent sites, with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 100 feet. Sites cover back-ins, pull-throughs, pull-in/back-out spots, dedicated big rig sites, river-front sites, and dry RV sites for guests who don't need hookups. Full-hookup sites carry water, sewer, and electric with cable TV, site-delivered WiFi, a fire pit, picnic table, and barbecue. At 100 feet of maximum length, this is one of the few parks in the region that can take the largest coaches without negotiation. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, and a general store handle the essentials, and horse pens are available for guests traveling with stock. Pets are welcome, with a dog park. A hot tub and sauna, bike rentals, creek frontage, and picnicking fill out the on-site recreation, and the river-front sites are the ones worth asking for. Dubois sits at the eastern approach to Togwotee Pass on US 26/287, between the Absaroka Range and the painted badlands, on the road toward Grand Teton National Park. Rates for RV sites, lodge rooms, and tent spots are on the booking page. Summer is short and busy here — reserve river-front and big rig sites early.

Osen's RV Park

5 RV Sites, 1 Cabin

Osen's RV Park in Livingston, MT, offers 5 full-hookup RV sites and 1 cabin, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 40 feet. Sites come in two categories, water-and-electric back-in 30/50-amp and full-hookup pull-thru 30/50-amp, carrying water, sewer, and electric. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, a general store, a dump station, a community fire pit, recycling, and a cabin cover the rest. Pets are welcome, with a dog park and a playground. Basketball and birding fill the grounds, and at five sites the park is quiet by default. Livingston sits along the Yellowstone River in the shadow of the Absaroka-Beartooth range, with Yellowstone National Park fifty miles south through the Paradise Valley — one of the most spectacular valley drives in the American West, and one of the great trout rivers anywhere. Rates for sites and the cabin are on the booking page. Five sites in Livingston during park season means booking as far ahead as they'll allow.

Wyatt's Hideaway Campground

82 RV Sites, 5 Cabins, 34 Tent Sites

Wyatt's Hideaway Campground in Belle Fourche, South Dakota, offers 79 full-hookup RV sites, five cabins, and 34 tent sites on the Belle Fourche River, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 90 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Five site categories span 30-amp and 30/50-amp back-ins and pull-throughs, with 34 tent sites making this unusually tent-friendly for an RV park. Seventy-nine sites run in 30-amp and 30/50-amp back-in and pull-through configurations plus 50-amp pull-throughs, all carrying water, sewer, and electric, sized to 90 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Five cabins and 34 tent sites round out the accommodations. Laundry, restrooms, showers, firewood, and WiFi handle the practical side. On-site recreation is straightforward — a playground, horseshoes, and river fishing directly from the property. The river-adjacent position is the draw, giving anglers access to the Belle Fourche system without a drive. The five site categories are worth reading before you book: the 30-amp options suit smaller trailers, while the 30/50-amp pull-throughs handle big rigs that would struggle elsewhere in the area, and the 90-foot capacity accommodates a long coach with a tow. Laundry and hot showers cover longer stays, and the tent sites sit separately from the RV loops. Pets are welcome. Belle Fourche sits in Butte County near the geographic center of the nation, which puts the Black Hills National Forest south, Devils Tower National Monument west across the Wyoming line, and the Missouri River grasslands east. The town's cattle ranching and rodeo heritage carries the frontier character of the Northern Plains more authentically than the tourist corridors nearer Rapid City. Directions: from the east, take I-90 exit 23 and go 15 miles west on Highway 34 — the campground is on the right immediately after crossing the river. From the west, take I-90 exit 10 north nine miles to Highway 34, then east 2.5 miles; it is on the left just before the river. Summer is peak, and the August Sturgis rally tightens the whole region. Reserve well ahead.

Elkhorn Ridge RV Resort & Cabins

100 RV Sites

Elkhorn Ridge RV Resort and Cabins in Spearfish, South Dakota, offers 100 full-hookup RV sites on the historic Frawley Ranch, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted up to 140 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Back-in and pull-through categories join an outdoor pool, hot tub, disc golf course, and tennis at the northern gateway to the Black Hills. One hundred sites run in back-in and pull-through categories, both carrying water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp with cable TV and site WiFi, sized to 140 feet. One hundred forty feet is among the most generous length allowances anywhere and accommodates anything on the road — worth knowing if you tow a trailer behind a long coach. The paved, level pads back up the resort's reputation. A general store, laundry, propane fills, showers, and on-site dining handle the practical side. An outdoor pool and hot tub and sauna anchor the property, with a disc golf course, sports courts, tennis, pickleball, volleyball, basketball, horseshoes, golf cart rentals, walking trails, biking, a playground, and dog park filling the rest. Planned activities run through the season, and a golf course is nearby. The Frawley Ranch carries more than 140 years of pioneering heritage and National Historic Registry status, which gives the grounds a genuine western character that most resorts manufacture. Spearfish Canyon, Deadwood, Mount Rushmore, and Devils Tower are all within reach. Summer is the short, intense Black Hills season, and the Sturgis rally fills the entire region. Reserve as early as you can for August.

Beaver Lake Campground

75 RV Sites, 9 Cabins, 6 Tent Sites

Beaver Lake Campground in Custer, South Dakota, offers 68 RV sites, nine cabins, and six tent sites at 5,300 feet in the Black Hills, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 45 feet. Full-hookup and water-and-electric categories at both amperages join back-in and pull-through tiers, with a water park, outdoor pool, and recreation center. Sixty-eight sites span back-in water-and-electric 30-amp, back-in water-and-electric 50-amp, back-in full-hookup 30-amp, back-in full-hookup 50-amp, pull-thru water-and-electric 30-amp, and pull-thru full-hookup categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted with site WiFi, sized to 45 feet, with fire pits and picnic tables. Check your tier before booking — the water-and-electric categories do not carry sewer at the site. Nine cabins and six tent sites round out the lodging. A general store, laundry, propane fills, dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. Registered guests are responsible for the conduct of everyone at their site. A water park and outdoor pool anchor the summer, with a recreation center, volleyball, basketball, horseshoes, a playground, and dog park filling the grounds. Pets are welcome. The elevation delivers reliably cool summer temperatures when the plains swelter, and Mount Rushmore, Custer State Park, Crazy Horse, and the Needles Highway are all within easy striking distance of camp. Julian and Kachina Starr own and operate it. Summer is the short, intense season in the Black Hills, with the Sturgis rally week tightening the whole region. Reserve well ahead.

Lakeview Haven

28 RV Sites

Lakeview Haven in Glendo, WY, offers 28 full-hookup back-in RV sites with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 50 feet. Every site is a back-in carrying water, sewer, and electric. Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, propane fills, and on-site dining handle the essentials, with WiFi across the property and cabins available for guests without a rig. Campfires are allowed in the public fire pits rather than at individual sites, and tents need their own tent site — you can't pitch one beside a cabin. Pets are welcome, and there's a playground and a basketball court for kids. A fishing pier on the property puts guests on the water, and the community fire pit is where the evening ends up. Glendo sits in the high plains of Platte County on the shore of Glendo Reservoir, a North Platte River impoundment known for walleye and for some of the emptiest, clearest night skies in Wyoming. Rates for sites and cabins are on the booking page. The reservoir's summer season is short and busy — reserve ahead for July and August.
