Hidden Lake Campground and Resort

I stayed here with my two daughters and loved this place. It’s with in an hour or so of just about all the good stuff. We went into the parks most days but enjoyed relaxing a few day at the campground. I fished in the lake almost everyday and there was plenty of fish. Swimming was fun and refreshing. I would love to come back some day and stay again.

Very quiet and clean spot up in the Black Hills of SD. The lake is perfect for swimming in the playground is nice. The town of Hot Springs itself is not much to brag about, but it’s close to Wind Cave National Park and only about two hours from the Badlands.

Dates: May 8 - 11. This was a very enjoyable place to stay. They didn't have a dog park per say but on the far side of the large pond they allowed dogs to be off lead and it was a nice large area. They allowed you to pay a small fee to fish in the pond (catch and release) which was very nice to just relax. There isn't a ton to do in the town specifically but if you're willing to drive a bit then there are some really cool areas to go sight see. Verizon signal was decent.

We were told through an email from the campground (CG) that there was road construction in town with length restrictions. Between the CG instructions and looking at Google Maps, we found an easy route around the construction and arrived with no issues. Check-in was quick and easy. There’s a $3.50 CG fee along with tax. This is a small CG so finding pull-through site 5 with FHUs was not an issue. There was however a tree on our door side that was a potential problem for our slide-out, but the camp host came by and made a suggestion to place our 39’ 5th wheel at the back of the site so slides etc. did not get involved with the tree. The site was plenty long enough for our RV and F450. The water and electric are towards the back and there are two sewer connections, one in the middle and the other at the back that’s handy. Currently, there is no WiFi or cable television. There are essentially no OTA channels but we had a clear shot of the southern sky for satellite. We got 2 bars each on Verizon and T-Mobile. The sites here are very close together. The back-ins do provide a little more site spacing but in the big scheme of things not enough to make a difference. There is no formal dog park but plenty of areas to walk your dog to include an off-leash area on the other side of the small lake. You can also fish (catch & release) in the lake if you purchase a CG license. There’s a flock of wild turkeys that wander around the campground plus mule deer here and there.

This is one of the friendliest, nicest, most pleasant little campgrounds I've ever stayed in. The lake (pond) was nice for a swim and a paddle, and it was also a pleasant morning walk around it. Our pull though site #9 was great for our truck and 37' 5th well, with grass on both sides and full hookups. We explored the black hills, wind Cave, and Angostura Reservoir from here. Fun outdoor games for free use, laundry ($1.50 in quarters for each machine), shower house, store with fun stuff.

The campground is very nice and our site was pretty level. The staff was very friendly. The bath house was clean but could use some updating. There is a nice lake where you can swim and rent kayaks. There are lots of chairs to sit and overlook the lake in the evening. Hot Springs is pretty close to Wind Cave, Mount Rushmore and Back Hills national Park.

This campground is the best we have ever stayed in. Lots to do inside the park with a peaceful lake that had deer to watch and wild turkeys. Spots were perfectly level. Owner was friendly.

Up a gravel drive is a small pretty lake and campground. A great spot for kids as the lake had swimming, fishing, and small boats for rent. The people managing it were friendly and helpful. Good location to Wind Tunnel and Custer parks. Bathrooms were clean. Only negatives were the sites were a bit close together and an unplugged campground no WiFi/tv. Regardless would definitely return.

An absolute gem! This is the first full season for this wonderful place. Short drive to Wind Cave National Park, Crazy Horse and Mount Rushmore.

Gorgeous lake on site with crystal clear water. Staff is friendly. Sites were very long and wide. Full hook ups.

Very clean.

Lovely campground. Stopped one night on our way to mammoth site and headed north. We went off season so chilly and stayed in the RV, but it’s so well kept and looks like fun during warmer months.
