Lovely time
We spent one night in the only available spot left in the park. The site was fine. Second and third nights I made reservations at 6 am. We got a spot that someone was a no show. We ventured over to looked at it and it was empty so we moved right away! Great spot. Pretty level. Very very quiet spot! Just what we needed! Too bad they didn’t call reservations and let them know we could have had all 3 nights in one spot! This park is amazing. So much to do and see! I would highly recommend off season visits if you want to see the baby’s!

First time visitor
Through reservation, we got somewhat less nice rv spots as most were taken, but that was due to our lateness. Most sites were medium to large size, clean, well maintained and very green. Very peaceful and quiet. Immaculate restrooms/showers. Only drawback is lack of dump stations, the whole park having 2 locations .

Be sure to make reservations! You can only make reservations on line or by phone! Highly suggest once you visit tour the other campgrounds jot down the spaces that will work best for you!
I would of really liked maps with mileage. Do pick the brains of staff! They are very knowledgeable. And slow down when driving in the park. Especially on the wildlife loop and the other roads! We went very slow people passing us and missing the wildlife! The park is fabulous I could easily of spent a full week!

I camped at Custer State Park for one week, three nights in south stockade Lake Campground and four nights in game Lodge Campground and the facilities are immaculate and well maintained. Roads throughout the park are good and the experience with wildlife is good. Hiking trails were well maintained in the town of Custer has everything you may need for reprovisioning, shopping, and dining,.

From our check in at the entrance to our check-in at the campground, everything was fantastic! The check-in associate recommended we eat at Blue Bell lodge, gave several recommendations for food and local beer called buffalo snot! We tried all her recommendations and they were fantastic. Our camp host Theresa was also amazing. Greeting us as we pulled in, gave us great information. Campground was Blue Bell, it was pretty, great location, clean bathhouse, clean dump station. Loved this campground and park. I hope we can return again!

Great park but improvements would help
If you’re an out of stater, they’re definitely going to hit you up for more money on camping. That’s fine but on top of the Park fee it gets a little excessive at more than $50 a day. There is only one dump station in the entire Custer State Park according to the website, although there is actually a second one on the loop Road very close. In any event way too few for seven or eight campgrounds and too far to drive. Also, way too many campgrounds were closed in mid May. I urge them to open up the parks given the demand..

The camp hosts were amazing and offered ideas as soon as we arrived. We were impressed with the family style shower/restrooms. All were clean. The drive from the campground to most of the hikes was around 30 minutes or less. Our favorite hike was Little Devils Tower. We will definitely come back!

We loved our visit to Custer State Park! The wildlife loop was a great drive, and we saw buffalo, mountain goats, burros, prairie dogs, pronghorn and lots of deer. But the best part of our stay was when the mountain goats visited us in our campground… we stayed at Grace Coolidge, which is small and we loved it. Even had a baby mountain goat take a nap in our fire pit… luckily we had not been using it :)

If you love peacefulness, beauty and wildlife, this is the most constant place to visit/camp. The rolling hills with ochre, sage and green hills are so beautiful. Bridges and curved roads add so much excitement to the drive. The Wildlife Drive is always rewarding. Access to side roads leads to so much wildlife viewing it can't be missed.

The trail around Legion Lake is easy and beautiful. We enjoyed the roads with the tunnels, scrambling around on boulders, hiking around Sylvan Lake, and hiking the Little Devil’s Tower trail. We also enjoyed touring Jewell Cave. Custer State Park is beautiful!

Too many dogs
Love CSP and have come here for Easter for many years - great views, few people and lots of family time. This year, somehow went from no pets in camping cabins to everyone bring pets - barking, evidence of not cleaning up and had to go to town to get allergy meds. We don’t have little kids using playground, but happy we didn’t, as that seemed to be where pet-owners wouldn’t bring baggies.

Overwhelming bleach smell
We are locals and stay at Custer State Park cabins multiple times a year, so I was very disappointed with our experience this time. We rented 2 cabins when the temps were relatively cold. Neither cabin had the heat turned on and it took over 4 hours before it was warm enough to take off our coats. One of the cabins had an overwhelming, burn-your-eyes bleach smell. So we had to open the windows and blow a fan to get the smell out. Considering it was in the 40s it made our already cold cabin even colder. There was no camp host to request to be moved to a different cabin. This is not the quality standard we expect from Custer State Park. In the past when the temps are cold a worker has turned on the heat BEFORE we arrive and we never had strong bleach smells. If this was our first visit we would not return; however, both issues need to be addressed by Custer.

We arrived late afternoon on a beautiful crisp day. We immediately set out to hike around Legion Lake which is right across the street from the campground, and was so pretty. The campground has about 20 spaces, each with a picnic table, fire pit with grill cover and easy access to the very clean bathroom with showers. When we met our camp host Joe, he was very friendly and assured us that no one can ever stay just one night at the campground. He was right! We added another night and took his advice to rent a car to drive the Needles Highway. This was a gorgeous drive and we were so happy to have found this gorgeous location. Very peaceful stay! Highly recommend!

Spring break
The camping cabin was fantastic and as advertised. However, there were no instructions on how to check in to the cabin. I drove all over the park and got sent to 3 different places before getting to the right spot. There also was no phone number to call included in my reservation confirmation email or at the entrance gates. I could never locate a phone number for any park ranger on any signs or brochures/ maps in the park. I found this very unnerving.

I felt you charge to much for your campgrounds. We have stayed in other state campgrounds in the West and they don’t charge an entry fee if you are staying the night. It’s one or the other not both. $75.00 is to much for a state campground.

Cabin was great
We initially went to the wrong cabin because there is a luxury cabin with the same name BB C18, but after contacting park staff we were directed to correct cabin. We were worried the heater would not be sufficient and we would get cold - we experienced the opposite. The first time we used the heater it overheated the cabin and we only used it on low a few minutes at a time and stayed warm even though it got into the teens over night.

We stayed at the Legion Lake campground. I’ve stayed there before 50 years ago as a kid with my dad and brother but my wife had never been there before and we both enjoyed it very much. The first morning I woke up and made my coffee, I was sitting at the table and I opened up the blinds and saw a buffalo grazing just outside the shower building, it continued until it was 5 feet away from our camper door. I got some great photos that morning. We saw lots of wild turkeys and deer in the campground as well. It’s my favorite campground in Custer State Park, mainly because it’s small and doesn’t seem crowded even when full. It was mid-October so that made it less crowded too. We will definitely be back there next year.

Th cabins are clean & roomy. I lived the decks and outdoor space. Great location. The camp hosts were also very helpful. Only faults: showers were lukewarm, would be fine if bathrooms warmer midafternoon (I didn’t try morning or evening). And the heaters were either on or off. Not a problem for me since I warmed up the cabin in the evening and shut it off when comfy. Turned it back on between 4&5 am, cabin was comfy when I was ready to get up

Wowza!
We had two visits to the park this year - summer and fall. The summer visit stay was in Grace Coolidge and the fall stay was in Legion Lake. Each campground has it's unique charm. The bathroom facilities at both were well maintained.
Seeing the bison, deer, pronghorn, and other various wildlife in their natural habitats was outstanding. Hiking opportunities throughout the park are an added bonus. There are numerous learning experiences available throughout the park.
This fall we had a special experience at the Bison Center, where the end of the season health check and separation of the herd. What an interesting process. The original plan was to go for 30 minutes. Three hours later we moved on to lunch at the Game Lodge.
Everywhere we went, the park employees and volunteers were knowledgeable, friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend this park.

Loved the camping cabin
We loved the camping cabin. We usually sleep in the back of our pick-up truck and sometimes set up a tent as well. But the camping cabins were wonderful and thoughtfully built. The bathrooms were clean and it was great to have a private space to use the bathroom and shower. So many beautiful drives in the park. We love seeing wildlife and that was one of the biggest treats. The bison herd was also an amazing sight and the Bison Center was a great stop as well.

Best State Park!
I've been to state parks all over the country, and this was the best! There is so much to see and do- absolutely loved it. My favorites: seeing all the animals, Sylvan Lake, and the buffalo round-up. Also, the camper cabins are awesome- I wish every park had these! My only critique has to do with the bathrooms. The light on the Game Lodge one is absurdly bright. It ruins seeing the night sky, and was shining in my window all night. Less wattage please. Also, the hand-dryers are painfully loud to the ears- especially when there is more than one in use. Lets go back to paper hand towels.

you should water the new trees more-they are obviously stressed and dieing. thanks for planting new trees. thanks for offering recycle barrels. bring back the badger set band. we need more campsites at custer state park. the park is sold out but sites are empty--allow folks to use vacant sites if they call the person that owns the reservation.

Lovely view from our campsite! Enjoyed staying here as we explored the Park and surrounding Black Hills. The restrooms and showers were bright and clean with nice hot water. No water hookup, but water available in the campground to fill our tank. Dump station looks like it is brand new. The Host, Andrew was very helpful in recommending a route back from Mount Rushmore’s lighting ceremony at night. Glad we avoided the tunnels and dark roads on the way back. Enjoyed our 5 night stay!

We stayed at Stockade South Campground in one of the cabins. VERY clean when we arrived with the light on for us on the porch. Campground hosts were very friendly and very helpful. The vault toilet near us and the shower house were very clean. The park was absolutely beautiful. We went to hike trails we weren't able to when we had visited previously. Trails were well-marked and maintained. Can't wait to go back again.

Reservation process frustrating
The park facilities themselves are excellent! Rated a bit low on safety and security because I had neighbors whose dog charged toward a child walking by their site from the bathroom. The reason I'm leaving this review is because the phone line used for same-day reservations forwarded me to a "free gift" offer of a lifealert like device. I couldn't decline the offer and return to the reservation line even after I called back! I had to call customer service to get a hold of the reservation line. No complaints about reservation staff once I was finally able to get a hold of them.

When we arrived, the camp host, Chris, came to speak with us and give us some helpful information. He was very friendly and made us feel welcome. The grounds were clean, peaceful and quiet. We loved it.
Our only complaint would be of a camper that had blue LED lights on the outside of it. That should not be allowed. It’s obnoxious. (That’s why we gave our overall experience a “4”. )

The reason for 4 stars is all about the online reservation. We were on the road so reservations from our phone were difficult - no maps to show campsites, could not get in to the app even tho' i tried 7 times, couldn't leave the site to get to information because it would send you back to the beginning (yes i know it tells you that) Anyways, it is just horrible to navigate.

Almost pleased
We loved the campground and were pleased with the clean restroom facilities. The problem was there was no times posted as to when the bathrooms were to be cleaned. After packing up camp on Sunday, we went to the bathrooms to get ready for the day. Indy, they were closed for clearance the cleaners would not give a time as to when they would be done. They were in fact very rude. A poster ed time would have told me when to get ready. Cleaning the bathrooms at a time when campers are getting ready for the day is poor timing and not posting when cleaning happens is even worse planning on the parks behalf. At least post a time when.

Great Stay at Center Lake!
Center Lake is a great little campground. We are locals, and we greatly appreciate the requirement of same day reservations so we are able to enjoy CSP without booking months in advance. The lower loop is very near the lake, and some sites abut a little creek which was very popular with my kiddos. We didn't use the bathrooms much since we have an RV, but the few times we did , the pit toilets were very clean. The lake itself is beautiful and calm and clear. Overall, a great experience.

Wonderful Campground
We stayed at Sylvan Lake Campground for the first time and it was a great experience. We can't wait to come back. We stayed at site SL19. It was a very short walk into our site but they provided a wheelbarrow to haul our stuff up to our spot. (all though the wheelbarrow was broke when we packed up, not a big deal because there was another cart there for us to use). The spot was close to other campers but not too close. Before we left we walked and checked out other spots and there are a few spot that are more secluded, those spots were more of a hike to but we didn't feel that it would be that big of a hike. We did have minimal cell service (we have AT&T). We absolutely loved camping here and can't wait to come back next summer to do it again.

everything was awesome, lovely park. My only suggestion for improvement would be for the "grocery stores" in the park to actually have some basic groceries and not just prepackaged junk food. We were camping and had planned on restocking our food from these groceries but could not even find bread, milk, or any fresh fruit. But that is our ONLY complaint! Would definitely recommend visitingCusterState Park!

Beautiful Site
Center Lake is one of the quietest and most beautiful spots to camp in the black Hills! There are very few lights, so the stars are amazing at night. The campsite needed a little TLC, but we were able to clean it up in just a few minutes. It was weird that the park staff drove through constantly, but I never really saw them do anything other than check people in. Other camp sites we've been to, they also clean out the firepits and clean up trash laying around. Overall though, this is one of our favorite sites!

Beautiful park and campsite with one minor issue
Beautiful campsite and state park with great trails and picnic areas we enjoyed very much. The one and only issue we had was that the check out times were not well enforced. We had a tent only campsite with a check in time of 12 pm. When we arrived a bit after 12, the previous guests were still completely set up and we had to wait almost an hour for them to leave before we could start setting up, taking away time from our own hiking plans.

Water, parking, & vault toilet with sanitizer close. The lake with beautiful giant boulders to climb, and super clean beach to swim in even in Sept. The lake is clear & refreshing, with many large fish, dragonflies, crawdads, turtles, and large birds to watch. Our favorite family camping trip to date!

Fantastic!!!!
We spent seven days at Custer State Park, we had a great time hiking, biking, seeing the many wonders of the area, and watching wild life. Every employee we met was friendly and helpful , particularly Justine at Blue Bell lodge restaurant. Custer State Park is definitely on our return to list.

Great campground!!
Custer State Park is beautiful and there is so much to do! Everyone was so friendly, the hikes were beautiful, we rented kayaks at Legion Lake, one day we had a picnic up at Centerlake picnic area, we camped at North stockade Lake Campground, and the bathrooms and all facilities were impeccable. The host were so nice. They even gave us a little extra firewood! I love that there was a recycle there right next to the trash dumpster.

Great experience
We stayed in Coolidge Campground. Great site in a great park. Only negative was a dump station 2 miles away. We did the Buckboard dinner and Buffalo Safari Jeep tour. Would recommend both…5 stars

Loved our stay at French Creek Horse Camp
The showers and restrooms were extremely clean. The horse stalls were very well built and safe. The trails in the area were fantastic as well. Staff was friendly and helpful too!

Great park!
We were so impressed with Custer State Park. We camped at Legion Lake for five nights. It was quiet and clean. The campsites were backed by a natural hillside on each side ( and a bison ambled through one evening.) We enjoyed the hikes, scenic drives, and a nice meal at the lodge and in Custer. We went to Moccasin Hot Springs in Hot Springs. We drove over to Spearfish one of the days. We had a great vacation.

Beautiful park
I had a wonderful time in this beautiful park. The camp hosts at Stockade Campground were great! They gave me very useful information about the area and had great suggestions on where to hike or drive. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Custer State Park.

Mixed bag on camping experience
Center lake campground has a few camper spots that you have to go the “wrong” way to access. There’s no other way. Didn’t appreciate park staff telling me I’m going the wrong way as I parked my camper. Common sense did not prevail.

Blue Bell Cabin
The Blue Bell Campground cabins were perfect! Campground toilets and bathrooms were clean. The playground was being worked on but looked great. Highly recommend the cabins.

French Creek was awesome
The ease at getting the site we wanted was great. The bathrooms/shower house was the cleanest and nicest I have ever had at a park. The camp hosts Bob and Crystal Bell were wonderful and helpful. They7 greeted us right away and made sure all our questions were addressed. They are the best and hope they will be back there next year. Beautiful park and we will be back!!!!

Website/App needs updating
We love SD, staying in the parks is a wonderful experience. The website and App that is given is awful! You can’t book until 90 days from reservation and then all is gone, or mostly depeleted. No pictures of sites or good descriptions. Please make some updates on the site! It makes it very difficult to plan a trip to your beautiful state.
