Experience unforgettable moments exploring scenic trails, marveling at local landmarks, or soaking in nature. By day, hike or sightsee, and by night, roast s’mores around the campfire under the starry Black Hills sky. The space A Black Hills Retreat Like No Other Tucked away in the heart of the Black Hills National Forest, this fully equipped 36-foot camper is your gateway to adventure, relaxation, and a touch of nostalgia. Surrounded by lush wilderness on three sides, it’s more than just a getaway—it’s an experience. Step inside and feel right at home This camper has everything you need for a cozy and carefree stay: Comfortable sleeping arrangements: A plush queen-sized bed, 3 full-size bunk beds, 2 fold-down couches, and a convertible kitchen table ensure everyone has a place to rest after a day of exploring. A kitchen ready for any meal: Stocked with a fridge, stove, microwave, and coffee maker (yes, coffee and filters included), plus pots, pans, dishware, utensils, and paper towels—you’ll have everything you need to whip up a fireside feast or a quick breakfast before the day’s adventures. All the essentials, thoughtfully prepared: Sheets, blankets, pillows, and bath towels (one per guest) to keep you comfy throughout your stay. Two private rooms - one for the queen bed, and one in the back for the 3 bunks and fold down couch, with the last fold down couch and convertible dinette bed being out in the dining area. Your own private bathroom: No need to rough it—this camper features a full bathroom with a shower and toilet for extra convenience. The great outdoors, right at your doorstep Reconnect with nature in your very own outdoor space: A picnic table for meals under the open sky. A fire ring and roasting sticks—because no camping trip is complete without the crackle of a campfire and gooey s’mores. Four Adirondack chairs for kicking back, unwinding, and soaking in the beauty of the Black Hills. A hidden gem with classic camping charm This isn’t your crowded, commercial campground—it’s a slice of paradise designed to bring back the magic of camping “back in the day.” The layout ensures plenty of space to breathe, while 33 acres of beautiful scenery and endless trails let you explore at your own pace. While our campground offers serene seclusion—tucked away just a few miles off Playhouse Road—it’s also centrally located near the best of the Southern Black Hills. You’ll find yourself just: \- 7 miles from Mount Rushmore/Keystone \- 3 miles from Custer State Park \- 3 miles from Lakota Lake \- 5 miles from Center Lake \- 22 miles from Sylvan Lake \- 19 miles from Hill City, SD \- 16 miles from Custer, SD \- 23 miles from Rapid City \- 36 miles (1 hour) from Wind Cave National Park \- 97 miles (1.75 hours) from Badlands National Park Whether you're here to hike, fish, stargaze, or simply escape the hustle, this camper is your cozy retreat in the middle of it all.
