Staff was very accommodating when we arrived and we discovered I hadn't included our trailer in our reservation. Campground is quiet and shaded. We enjoyed our stay here and will come back again when we're in the area.

Amazing area and location! Many nice spaces, and several secluded. Stong wifi and cell. Thus was a highlight of our trip. Only complaint is the dryers that were in disrepair.

I stayed in a no hookup site for probably about 5 nights. The restrooms are a bit of a hike from the tent area, but are clean & hot. There is also a dishwashing area with hot water that I appreciated. They will deliver things such as firewood or other items they carry in their little store out to your site if you don’t want to go fetch them yourself. To me the best part was that it backed up onto trails on national forest land, so there is endless walking or biking you can do right near the park in the black hills. For groceries you’re not far from Lynn’s Dakotamart. You are close to everything in the Custer area you might want to see or do, and about 2 hours from the badlands. A great spot!

Great little campground just minutes from Downtown Custer. Very friendly staff and simple check in. Sites & bathrooms are very well maintained and clean. Our site was in the very back and was quiet with great views. Access to trails right off the campground where you can hike for hours if you choose. OK wifii.
I rated it 4 for noise...can't really blame the facility for that though. We just had loud neighbors.

What a gem! We stayed here for 3 nights while exploring Custer and Custer State Park. I wish we could’ve stayed longer. It's a beautiful campground with many "Big Pines"! I was worried about maneuvering our rig through the trees to our site but our 45' Fifth-Wheel made it just fine. Our site had plenty of room for us as well. The nights were peaceful and we heard just a bit of road noise during the day. No biggie at all! The owners and employees really care about this campground and making sure the guests have a great experience. We will most definitely stay here again next time we're in Custer!

Very friendly, fun and helpful staff.
The campground is on a hill but most of the sites are level. Very tall pine trees shelter most of the campsites. The air feels fresh and clean. The back of the campground abuts the Black Hills National Forest and the views are fantastic. Campsites in the center of the campground are tighter than along the edges and the tent sites are down the hill and feel very secluded.
Showers are immaculate and set up wonderfully so that your clothes don't get wet and you can change comfortably. Bathrooms are also very clean. There's a sink set-up to wash your dishes at the bathhouse.
The campground office has a great local map and will find out what you're interested in, how long you're staying and then give you advice on where to go. There's so much to do, you could spend a week here. Custer is a very cute town with plenty of restaurants, bars and shops.
Make sure to take the Wildlife Loop in Custer State Park and drive Needles Highway. If your vehicle is too big to pass through the tunnels carved out of the rock, you can rent UTVs in town.
Badlands Ntl Park, Mt. Rushmore, Wind Cave Ntl Park, Air and Space Museum and the Crazy Horse Memorial are all within reach of Big Pine Campground.

We stayed here for two nights, my wife and I love this campground because of tall pine trees and the feeling of being in the woods. It’s like real camping!! Very close to most of the point of interest in Black Hills. They have full hookups or elec/water sites Strong WiFi. .

We really enjoyed our stay at Big Pine Campground in September 2021. We chose site 9 because it was close to the laundry room. The sites are closer together at the front, but the back loops had more space between sites. Everything was very clean and well-maintained and the staff is super nice and will deliver ice and firewood to your site. Beautiful setting among the pines. This campground is 15 minutes to everything - we rented a car in Hill City and went to Custer SP, Iron Mountain Road, Needles Highway, Mount Rushmore and Crazy Horse Memorial. So much to see in this area!

Normally, we really prefer to stay in State and National Park Campgrounds. However, in this area of the country, it can be tough obtaining the right campsite in Custer State Park. They book up REALLY fast, can be difficult to reach, and most likely will not have the hook ups that you want or need.
Therefore, we looked at other options and found this privately owned campground. For us, it was convenient in terms of driving to the sights which we planned to visit (except the Badlands which was an all day affair).
This campground keeps very busy during the Summer, however, you do not feel any hustle and bustle of neighbors or any coming and going. We stayed 5 nights; 2 nights in one site and 3 nights in another one. We did not have sewer hook ups, so we dumped (dump station by the main office) when we moved from the first site to the second site.
The friendly owners have owned this campground for three years and love what they are doing. Is the campground perfect? No, however, it is NOT anything like an "RV Park" which we avoid like the plague, and therefore we were glad to be here. Our sites were a bit challenging to get level, but we managed. Our Verizon Cell Service was good.
