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.
