KOA Mt. Rushmore / Hill City

We stayed here while visiting Mt Rushmore and Crazy Horse. This campground is conveniently located to both. The needles highway is close by and a real treat to drive. The open field behind our site was great to walk our dogs, on leash, eventhough you will find some who will let their dogs run free:/ There was a pickleball court to help us to get some additional exercise besides walking our dogs o... We stayed here while visiting Mt Rushmore and Crazy Horse. This campground is conveniently located to both. The needles highway is close by and a real treat to drive. The open field behind our site was great to walk our dogs, on leash, eventhough you will find some who will let their dogs run free:/ There was a pickleball court to help us to get some additional exercise besides walking our dogs on some of the campground roads and paths. The camp store is super big and of course the ice cream was a huge hit for us. Check in had nice large area. Playground, laundry, clean showers, and friendly staff; top notch KOA here folks. To top our trip we were able to participate in the semiannual Volksmarch to the top of Crazy Horse.

Stayed here many times, during the rally. Always welcomed, by someone willing to assist - even during the darned rain storms. From tent camping, to cabins, I’ve never had a bad stay here - and Hill City makes moving to South Dakota look better, and better, all the time.

We had an absolute blast at the Mount Rushmore KOA. We stayed for 3 days and both left wishing we could stay longer. We booked a simple, back-in water/power/fire pit camp site and it was great. We were a short walk to the bathrooms and showers which were extremely clean and new! You can rent golf carts to get around the property but walking to all the different activities is easy as well.

We booked a simple, back-in water/power/fire pit camp site and it was great. We were a short walk to the bathrooms and showers which were extremely clean and new! You can rent golf carts to get around the property but walking to all the different activities is easy as well. The staff we encountered were all extremely friendly and helpful. The check-in process was easy and informative. The store (where you check in) and the outpost by the kids area were fully stocked with everything from ketchup to blankets to Christmas ornaments to ponchos. The little "village" area is great where there is an ice cream shop, laundry, Grapes (wine tasting) & Grinds(coffee shop), and late night bar food (closes at 10pm)...all of it was fantastic! It was very busy while we were there and I was expecting it to be noisy at night but it was so quiet..I didn't hear loud music or even a dog barking. I don't even want to "complain" but if I had to say two things..id say that the mini golf course needs some extreme attention and TLC (the kids didn't seem to mind though) and the firewood is pretty pricey for what you get...other than that we had an absolute blast and we're already looking forward to our next visit. Thank you for making our first KOA experience so fabulous!
