Found The Roost Resort on campendium while planning to to visit Crazy Horse and Mt Rushmore. Called Shelah and Tom to check availability for our trip, 7/11-7/14/21. They were super friendly and helpful, and the deposit was very nominal, I think one day's fee. Paid the remainder upon arrival.
We came to the Roost Resort by way of Siuox Falls. The location is absolutely perfect. We loved getting pop over into Custer City (1800's town with a great modern vibe) in just 5 minutes.
The entrance of the highway was about 400 ft of asphalt and a little bumpy, but completely doable without issue. Check-in was super easy and they have firewood and ice on site for $5 and $2 respectively.
We were at site 10 in the back corner with electric 30amp and water. We looped the small circle and backed in with ease. Needed two leveling blocks on the north side but that was easy too.
I cannot overstate how amazing the view is there (see photos). Neighbor sites are between 10 and 20 feet away. Everyone there was as nice as could be. There are cabin and tent sites on the grounds as well, and all generations were present while we were there.
They have done a great job mapping out the campground and made it easy to familiarize before you go, so be sure to click around the maps on the website!
The bathhouse was unbelievably clean, rustic, and the men's side had 2 showers and one each toilet and urinal stalls. Also a full sink. They provide floor towels to help keep the ground dry, just toss in basket when you're done. Seriously, some of the nicest facilities we've seen.
If I had it to do over again we would have stayed here longer and shortened or follow on stays.

Stayed on site 3, it had a wonderful view and shade. The campground is small but that’s fine for us. Everyone from the owners to guests were all so nice. The showers were very clean but a little small for me but probably fine for an average size guy. Overall we would definitely stay here again.

On the positive side it is a beautiful CG. We watched the deer each night in the meadow. There is a dump station that is hard to get to by the other campers because it is right behind our site.

Great campground convenient to Custer and Custer State Park. Site #11 is in full sun but is big enough for any size rig. Very clean bathrooms.

We just pulled out from staying the night at the gorgeous Roost Resort. We were on our way through from Wisconsin back home to Colorado and found this gem on Campendium. Shelah was so friendly and helpful and the grounds and bathrooms are impeccable! Everything was well-maintained and very clean. There are adorable cabins and tent sites as well as RV sites. We stayed in a full hookup site for our Airstream and had such beautiful views. We enjoyed happy hour outside looking over the meadow and mountains. We look forward to returning next time we are in the Black Hills!

We stayed here in our 39-foot motor home in one of the two sites with 30A full hookups for seven days in mid-May 2020. AT&T service was 2-3/4 bars. WiFi was generally strong, but reportedly weak in the remaining RV sites in the back loop. Most sites feature extraordinary views of the neighboring valley (where we saw many deer and antelope) and the rock outcroppings across it. Tom, the owner, was very attentive. The campground entrance has great curb appeal. The grounds are immaculate for a relatively rustic campground with pads that are either gravel, grass, or a combination of the two. The buildings are mostly log construction. The restrooms feature pine-knot paneling throughout and are immaculately maintained. The location is near shopping, restaurants, and services in the west part of Custer. We look forward to staying here again when we return for a month in September-October.
