Story

You will find our resort to be clean, quiet, well shaded and scenic. Our staff continuously strives to offer a well-maintained and modern facility while not losing sight of the rustic setting which makes us unique. The Rafter J Bar Ranch is comprised of five camping areas separated by alpine meadows and shaded by large ponderosa pines. Choose a remote site, or camp close to the resorts activity center. We offer electric, water and sewer sites along with many tent sites. Some sites have satellite TV hookups. Enjoy a crackling fire and quiet hours that begin at 10:00 P.M. There's also full-time camp security.

Enjoy our swimming complex which features the addition of a hot tub. We are located adjacent to the George Mickelson Hiking & Biking Trail. Our resort is also surrounded by National Forest with endless opportunities to hike and bike.

The Rafter J Bar Ranch is the perfect headquarters for Black Hills sight seeing, minutes away from Mt. Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Custer State park and the 1880 Train.

We've stayed at several campgrounds in the area and none of them even compare to rafter j bar ranch. Extremely clean and spacious! The staff was very friendly and helpful. We will definitely be returning in years to come. Also want to add that it is very kid friendly.. the pool and playground are excellent and there is access to mikkelson trail from the campground, which was convenient and wonderful!!!

First camped here in Sept 2002. The forest / pine smell, the location, the park in general is A1. We recently camped here in June of 2016. Simply a great value for what it is. Some campsites in the upper forest area are not easy to get into (back into) with a 33 foot TT, but its doable. The trees can get in the way, but again, its doable. Will be back again.

Loved this place. Woke up to birds chirping and squirrels playing between the trees. Only stayed one night but wanted to stay forever. The facilities were absolutely spotless. Only downside was that I wasn't given the option, when booking, to camp in the one area with cable so you need to ask if that's what you want. Pool looked great, pancakes served cookout style each morning and there is a little camp store if you've left something at home. A stones throw from Mount Rushmore National Park and Hill City is 3 miles down the road. Crazy Horse is worth a visit too. WiFi is apparently only available around the office/pool area but I did see a lady sat in the laundry room with her laptop and a glass of wine so maybe that is the place to be! A little pricey at 68$ for the night but the location made it worthwhile.

Loved this campground. We stayed 3 nights. Great location to all that the Black Hills has to offer. Liked that it was quiet but still had a pool for the kids. Large campsite with a variety of choices for people's tastes. We stayed in the back, had a lovely tree lined site. The bathrooms were clean and convenient. Would definitely stay here again if ever back in the area. Staff was friendly.

Great campground and perfect South Dakota location. Staff is very friendly. Facilities are in good condition and clean. Beautiful views and surroundings with plenty of room at each site. But the best part is the location. It is just minutes from Mount Rushmore, Crazy Horse with plenty of ATV and hiking trails.
