There are a ton of nice campgrounds in this area. We stayed twice at the Rafter J Bar Ranch Camping Resort. This is just above Custer 2 milles south of Hill City on Hwy 16. The sites were large and there are actually 5 different camping area's on this ranch. We loved this campground. Hwy 244 to Keystone and Mt. Rushmore almost dead ends at this campground also. Don't forget to eat at the Alpine Inn in Hill City. They only serve one thing Filet Mignon. No reservations so line up and get there early. Well worth it. Ask a ranger in Custer where the Buffalo are as they wander all over. The evening show at Mt. Rushmore is also very nice. Have a great trip!!
