We weren’t sure what to expect staying at a horsemen’s camp, but it couldn’t have been nicer or more convenient! The facilities were modern and perfectly maintained. Golf cart drivers came around daily to collect garbage or sell wood. This is THE best shower house we’ve ever used! We got an RV spot with water & electric for $24/night. We also booked a tent site with them through AirBnB. The people (owners and other guests) were all very friendly. One invited our 11-year-old grandson to feed her horse carrots. But this was a MATURE campground; no fireworks, drunkenness, or loud noise (even before quiet hours). At sundown, everything stopped. We weren’t bothered by any mosquitoes, but there are some flies at a horse camp. Very minor. All the attractions we visited were within a half hour drive; Mt. Rushmore, Crazy Horse Monument, Wind Cave, Custer State Park (with the buffalo and mules), the 1880’s Train in Hill City. The campground doesn’t offer horse rides, but they referred us to a local stable that arranged a trail ride perfectly matched to our abilities. The campsites were clean and level. The whole camp was extremely well run. If I’m ever in the area again, I look forward to coming back.
