More of a tent or van space right next to the log pile. There are private properties all around so be respectful of locals. Fires are not allowed at unofficial spots like this but we keep seeing rock fire rings.

Stayed here for 2 nights in a tent. Convenient to Custer and crazy horse memorial. All of the supposed spots were taken on a Friday night late at night already, so we ended up ducking off to a side street just a few hundred feet or so and making our own spot with a rock fire ring. Plenty of stuff to burn. Overall pretty Decent stay.

There are 4 big rig friendly sites within two miles, plus another tent/small trailer towards the end of where I explored. Our 43' fifth wheel fit easily in our site, you probably could have gotten two of them in. A road across from the entrance was helpful for backing in.

There are 4 big rig friendly sites within two miles, plus another tent/small trailer towards the end of where I explored. Our 43' fifth wheel fit easily in our site, you probably could have gotten two of them in. A road across from the entrance was helpful for backing in. Our spot was at 43.734286,-103.540617, there were two at woodpiles before this, and another long one further down the road. We got great signal with both T-Mobile and AT&T.

The road to site is not plowed in winter so. We caught some good weather but there were still parts of road that were snow/iced over.
Plenty of room to get out 42 foot travel trailer backed in. Ran generator all night with no issues. I think one vehicle came up road while we were there but it was the end of December.

Arrived at the GPS coordinates and found the site. The site is located right next to a woodpile left over from logging. There was an established fire ring. Forest Service fire department came by and asked if I minded if he disassembled the fire ring as there are no campfires allowed in South Dakota at this time. The site was plenty big enough for me and large enough to put a good size travel trailer there. There was not much traffic going up and down the dirt road. The site is a bit exposed but there are trees on the side for shade. Area is patrolled both night and day daily by the Sheriff's Department. The road going in off of the pavement is a two lane dirt gravel road which you then turn onto a single lane dirt gravel road to get to the site. The roads were in excellent condition as they were just regraded before I arrived. Cell service was excellent with four to five bars on T-Mobile. The site was clean with no trash left behind. Noise level was very low from the surrounding area. Saw a lot of whitetail deer in the area.

We drove through this area today to scout out if there might be sites that our trailer would fit. We saw what would have been good sites with established fire rings for a 28’ trailer but there are very large boulders layed along the road at the opening of these sites to prevent camping. There are other signs that are posted saying no camping further down the road too. We drove the entire road and it was a stunning drive, but it appears this may only be useful for someone doing an over night in a camper van.

There is a nice mountain view. Even though the cellular signal is strong (2 bars on T-Mobile), Location Services could not pinpoint out location, so we’re not sure which mountain it is.
Great place to stay, and you can’t beat the price!

Pros: free!! quiet after 9pm, clean, found fairly level spot, saw big elk about 50 yards from truck : )
Cons: pretty far out of way, some of gravel road rough, right along road.
NOTE: SW side of road available for camping, other side of road labeled No Camping. Somewhat confusing when initially see the signs

We drove from Hazelrodt cutoff to Broken Arrow campground on 337/Glen Erin Rd.
Could only find one acceptable site, about 1.8 miles from Hazelrodt cutoff. (43.7252, -103,5384).
Can put just about any size rig that you have and pretty level.
Beautiful hiking thru the hills.
Very good road
