RV Camping near Herreid, South Dakota

Sandager Park Pool and Campground

19 RV Sites

Sandager Park Pool and Campground in Lisbon, North Dakota, offers 19 RV sites on the Sheyenne River, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 50 feet. Full-hookup, electric-only, and dry camp categories give three clear price points, with an outdoor pool, mini-golf, ball field, and sports courts. Nineteen sites span back-in water-electric-sewer 30/50-amp, back-in electric only 50-amp, pull-thru electric only 50-amp, and dry camp categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted, sized to 50 feet. Read the category carefully — the electric-only and dry tiers carry no water or sewer at the site and price accordingly, which is a useful range to have. A dump station, restrooms, showers, and firewood handle the practical side. This is a self-service campground: no check-in is required on arrival, as all sites with electricity need prepaid reservations. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with mini-golf, a ball field, sports courts, tennis, basketball, volleyball, a playground, pavilion, and dog park filling the rest. The river carries fishing, canoeing, and kayaking, with biking and swimming besides. Pets are welcome. The Lisbon Park District operates the campground as a community facility, which shows in the pricing and in the range of public recreation on the grounds — the pool and ball fields serve local residents as much as campers. Ransom County sits in the Sheyenne River valley of southeastern North Dakota, a genuinely scenic wooded corridor cutting through open prairie, with Fort Ransom State Park and the Sheyenne National Grassland close. Summer is the short, intense season. Reserve ahead for July and August.

Dead Colt Creek Recreation Area

25 RV Sites, 13 Tent Sites

Dead Colt Creek Recreation Area in Lisbon, ND, offers 25 RV sites and 13 tent sites, with 30 and 50-amp service and room for rigs up to 75 feet. Sites come in three types — water-and-electric back-ins at 30-amp, water-and-electric back-ins at 50-amp, and water-and-electric pull-ins at 30-amp — each with a fire pit and picnic table. These are partial hookups: there's no sewer at the site, so plan on the dump station. At 75 feet the sites take long rigs. A bathhouse with showers and a pavilion are on the property, and pets are welcome. One rule to plan around: one vehicle per site, with a nightly fee charged on arrival for each additional vehicle. For a city-operated recreation area the amenity list is unusually good — an outdoor pool, a boat ramp and boat docks, a ball field, sport courts for basketball and volleyball, and a playground, with swimming and fishing on the water. Lisbon sits in Ransom County in the Sheyenne River valley, in the rolling glacial lake country of southeastern North Dakota. Rates and availability are on the booking page. Bring only one vehicle per site if you'd rather not pay the extra-vehicle fee.

Badlands Hotel and Campground

26 RV Sites, 26 Tent Sites, 21 Hotel Rooms

Badlands Hotel and Campground in Interior, South Dakota, offers 24 RV sites, 21 hotel rooms, and 26 tent sites one mile from Badlands National Park's south entrance, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted up to 100 feet. Full-hookup, water-and-electric, and no-hookup categories serve every budget in one of the country's most isolated park settings. Twenty-four sites span 30-amp back-in, 30-amp water-and-electric back-in, 50-amp water-and-electric back-in, no-hookup back-in, and pull-through categories, sized to 100 feet, with fire pits, picnic tables, and site WiFi. The no-hookup option suits self-contained rigs at a lower rate. Twenty-one hotel rooms, a two-bedroom apartment, and 26 tent sites round out an unusually broad lodging range. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, firewood, and on-site dining handle the practical side. Campfires are permitted, subject to any posted restrictions. An outdoor pool anchors the warm months, with walking trails, picnicking, hiking, boating, and birding from the area. Pets are welcome. The one-mile distance from the park's south entrance is the whole proposition. Badlands National Park protects one of the most visually striking geological landscapes in North America and one of the largest intact mixed-grass prairie ecosystems left on the Great Plains. This is genuinely remote country — the nearest significant commercial infrastructure is an hour away, which makes a property with hotel rooms, a store, and a restaurant unusually valuable. Summer is peak. Reserve well ahead.

40 RV Sites, 1 Cabin

Camping 109 in Big Stone City, SD, offers 40 full-hookup RV sites and 1 cabin, with 30 and 50-amp service.

Laundry, a bathhouse with showers, firewood, and a dump station cover the essentials. Pets are welcome, and there's a playground. Rates are posted plainly: RV sites from $35 daily and $175 weekly, and the cabin from $250 daily. A boat ramp puts guests onto Big Stone Lake for boating, fishing, kayaking, and birding, with wine tasting nearby. Big Stone City sits on the eastern shore of Big Stone Lake in the far northeast corner of South Dakota, at a point where the state line runs straight through the water. Rates are on the booking page. Forty sites next to a boat launch on a border lake — reserve ahead for the fishing season and confirm your rig's fit.

Lakeshore RV Park - Ortonville

6 RV Sites, 2 Cabins, 4 Tent Sites

Lakeshore RV Park in Ortonville, Minnesota, offers six full-hookup RV sites, two cabins, and four tent sites on Big Stone Lake, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 60 feet. An outdoor pool, a hot tub, boat docks and rentals, and a game room round out a compact lakeside resort two miles from downtown. Six full-hookup sites carry water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp, in both back-in and pull-through configurations, with fire pits and picnic tables at the sites. Two cabins serve guests traveling without a rig, and four tent sites cover simpler camping. WiFi reaches the property, and laundry and a general store handle longer stays. Note that all RV sites and cabins carry a two-night minimum. On-site recreation centers on the lake. Boat docks and boat rentals put guests on Big Stone Lake directly, and fishing, boating, and swimming run from the property. An outdoor pool and a hot tub cover the non-lake hours, a game room and arcade handle rainy afternoons, and a pavilion hosts planned activities. Golf cart rentals make the grounds easy to cross. Pets are welcome. Big Stone Lake sits on the Minnesota–South Dakota line at the headwaters of the Minnesota River. The Big Stone National Wildlife Refuge protects the surrounding wetland, making this a strong stop for birders on the prairie pothole flyway, and Ortonville's walkable downtown is two miles from the sites. The park operates through the Minnesota lake season, with summer fishing and boating driving peak demand. Reserve ahead for summer weekends — six RV sites go quickly, and the two-night minimum applies throughout.

Bulldog Creek Campground

137 RV Sites, 5 Cabins, 114 Tent Sites

Bulldog Creek Campground in Sturgis, South Dakota, offers 136 RV sites, five cabins, and 114 tent sites across 43 acres in the Black Hills, with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted up to 130 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout. Full-hookup back-in categories at both amperages join pull-through and water-and-electric tiers, with a general store, laundry, and on-site dining. One hundred thirty-six sites span back-in 30-amp, back-in 50-amp, pull-thru, and pull-thru water-and-electric categories, carrying water, sewer, and electric where noted, sized to 130 feet. One hundred thirty feet accommodates anything on the road with room to spare, which matters enormously during rally week. Confirm your tier, as the water-and-electric pull-through does not carry sewer at the site. Five cabins and 114 tent sites make the tent inventory exceptional. A general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, showers, and on-site dining handle the practical side. Grass, shade trees, and the namesake Bulldog Creek running through the property give the grounds genuine Black Hills character. Biking and offroading are nearby, and the dark sky makes for excellent stargazing. Pets are welcome. The campground sits just off I-90 exit 37, five minutes from Sturgis and 20 from Rapid City, with asphalt to the front gate. Mount Rushmore, Deadwood, Spearfish Canyon, and Badlands National Park are all within reach. The Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in early August fills the entire region a year in advance. Reserve as early as you possibly can for that week, with far easier availability otherwise.

Sturgis View Campground

Sturgis View Campground offers full-hookup RV sites with water, sewer, and electric, plus cabins, on a hillside 1.5 miles from Sturgis's Main Street, with 360-degree views of the Black Hills. An outdoor pool, hot tub, bar, and on-site dining have served motorcycle rally attendees since 2004. Full-hookup back-in sites carry water, sewer, and electric with fire pits, picnic tables, and site WiFi. Cabins round out the accommodations. A general store, dump station, restrooms, showers, and a pavilion handle the practical side, with on-site dining and a bar for evenings. The property also serves as a wedding venue and includes a barn. An outdoor pool and hot tub anchor the property, with walking trails, hiking, picnicking, and swimming from the grounds and stargazing across the open Hills sky. Planned activities run through the season. Wine tasting is nearby. Pets are welcome. The hillside position is the whole idea. Elevated and set back just enough to catch a breeze and some perspective, the campground puts riders close to the rally without being swallowed by it — which is why it has held a loyal following since 2004. Downtown Sturgis is 1.5 miles away, with Mount Rushmore, Devils Tower, Badlands National Park, Crazy Horse Memorial, and Bear Butte State Park all within day-trip range. The August Sturgis Motorcycle Rally is the defining event and books out far in advance at premium rates — if your stay falls anywhere near rally week, reserve as early as you possibly can. The rest of the Black Hills summer runs busy on park traffic.

Days End Campground & RV Park

168 RV Sites, 35 Cabins, 12 Tent Sites, 7 Glamping Sites

Days End Campground & RV Park in Sturgis, South Dakota, offers 168 RV sites, 35 cabins, 12 tent sites, and seven glamping sites just off Interstate 90 at Exit 30, with 30 and 50-amp service, cable TV, and rigs accepted up to 120 feet — one of the largest and most rig-friendly properties at the Black Hills' northern gateway.

Thirty-five cabins, seven glamping sites, and trailer rentals serve guests arriving without a rig, and 12 tent sites cover simpler camping. Cable TV and WiFi reach the sites, and a general store, laundry, dump station, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. On-site facilities are built for volume and turnover rather than resort programming. A pavilion hosts planned activities, and the campground's Exit 30 position means guests spend most days out in the Hills. Pets are welcome. Sturgis sits equidistant between Rapid City and Spearfish, putting Mount Rushmore, Deadwood, Bear Butte State Park, and Spearfish Canyon within comfortable day-trip range, with the Badlands south and Devils Tower northwest. The campground operates through the Black Hills season. The August Sturgis Motorcycle Rally draws over 500,000 attendees and books out far in advance at premium rates — if your stay falls anywhere near rally week, reserve as early as possible. The rest of the summer runs busy on Mount Rushmore and Black Hills National Forest traffic.

Black Hills Vista RV Park

175 RV Sites

Black Hills Vista RV Park in Sturgis, South Dakota, offers 175 full-hookup RV sites on a hilltop with 20, 30, and 50-amp service and rigs accepted up to 90 feet on a big-rig-friendly layout, behind a gated entrance. North and south back-in and pull-through categories give panoramic Black Hills views from a ridge position in Meade County. One hundred seventy-five sites run in north back-in, north pull-through, and south pull-through categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 20, 30, and 50-amp with site WiFi, sized to 90 feet. The 90-foot capacity handles any rig arriving for rally week. A laundry, restrooms, and showers handle the practical side. Check-in is 3pm and check-out 11am, and wristbands are issued for park entry. The park is LGBTIQA+ friendly and open April through October. The amenity set is deliberately practical — this is a ridge-top base for the Black Hills rather than a destination resort, and the viewshed is the feature. Off-roading is nearby and a national park is within reach. Sturgis is the draw. The town anchors the most celebrated motorcycle rally and outdoor adventure destination in the northern plains, with the full Black Hills circuit — Mount Rushmore, Deadwood, Spearfish Canyon, Bear Butte — spreading out from it. The August Sturgis Motorcycle Rally books out far in advance at premium rates and defines the park's year. If your stay falls anywhere near rally week, reserve as early as you possibly can. The rest of the April-to-October season runs on Black Hills park traffic.

Black Hills Station

36 RV Sites

Black Hills Station in Piedmont, South Dakota, offers 36 full-hookup RV sites just off Interstate 90 between Rapid City and Sturgis, with 30 and 50-amp service and rigs accepted to 40 feet, open all year. An outdoor pool, clubhouse, and cabins sit at the entry point to the Black Hills. Thirty-six sites run in 30-amp back-in, standard back-in, and pull-through categories, all carrying water, sewer, and electric on 30 and 50-amp, sized to 40 feet. Note the 40-foot cap before booking a larger rig. Cabins serve guests without a rig. A dump station, restrooms, showers, and WiFi handle the practical side, and the campground stays open year-round. An outdoor pool anchors the summer, with inflatable water toys, a clubhouse, billiards, corn hole, and walking trails filling the grounds. Off-roading and a casino are nearby. The amenity set is practical rather than elaborate, which suits a property where guests spend their days out. The position is the real asset. From this single address, Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse Memorial, Custer State Park, Badlands National Park, Spearfish Canyon, and Deadwood are all reachable as day trips — a lineup that would otherwise constitute a full two-week South Dakota itinerary with multiple relocations. Summer is peak across the Black Hills. The August Sturgis rally is the sharpest constraint, given the park sits directly between Rapid City and Sturgis — if your stay falls anywhere near rally week, reserve as early as possible and expect premium rates.
