Review – Jacob M.
“This is a really nice location to camp, really close to Mt. Rushmore and Crazy Horse. There are both RV and camping sites with power hookups if you want. The staff there was great and helped us with everything we needed. Highly recommend staying here if you are passing through. Can make reservations in advanced.”

“We had a great stay at Black Hills Trailside Resort. It met all of our needs and wants. The location was convenient because it is located by downtown Hill City. It was clean and family friendly. The staff was friendly and helpful. It would also be a great location for Bike Week. We would definitely stay here again!”
