Hidden Lake Campground & 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.

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.

We stayed here for four nights during our trip through SD. Great location with the playground and lake access for the kids. Easy access, pull through sites were awesome, hookups were well located for this site. A few of the other sites might have a hard time accessing the water hookups because of the split access water hookups (bring 50ft of hose) The campground folks even delivered the mail for us right to our site (we are full-timers)! Super friendly and easy to find staff. All around a very positive experience.

The only major downside is the place has a TON of flies during the peak season. We'd not had this issue as badly at other campgrounds, not sure what made the difference here. We had the hardest time keeping them out.

Great little place to stay overnight in Hot Springs. Steep gravel driveway with a left turn at the top, but they put a mirror there so you can see if someone is coming down the hill and hopefully that person would be polite enough to let you get to the top first. No wifi as advertised. They say no cable on the booking site, but there are coax drops by the power box. Staff is super friendly. Got the Good Sam 10% discount which basically offset the $3.50 fee for booking the site online. AT&T and Verizon coverage was very good. Everything in Hot Springs is still closed since it's not travel season yet and technically winter. Have no idea how the permanent residents survive half the year without someone to cook them pizza and serve them beer, but they do.
