Campground Reviews

We loved staying at Palmer Gulch! Clean facility with so much to do! Store was extremely clean and everyone was so nice, except for the cleaning crew for the bathrooms at the store. My son and husband were in the restroom and had the cleaning crew came in and wouldn’t leave while they were in there. They were very rude peeking through the stall. Very inconsiderate.

We stayed in the cabins by the kids zone, great location, especially for all our kids. Everything was clean and we felt very safe when the kids were outside playing

It was very nice, close to attractions, many activities within the campground, and staff always available. One major downfall is the WiFi and cell connection. It would've been helpful to explore our options of attractions online. But, we would stay there again!!

Not my taste given all the golf carts and screening kids. I understand your market is families but it would be nice if you had an adults only area for peace and quiet. I only stayed one night and left the camp a day early. It was worth the 100 dollars to get out of there. Not your fault just not my kind of enjoyment

Everyone was wonderful to work with and were always willing to help!

This KOA has it all and then some! The staff is the best of any KOA I’ve been to before, polite, helpful and attentive. Looks like they are making additions to things with new construction but the amman to rows are many.

Beautiful large campground. Incredible scenery, just be advised this is a family campground and there are kids everywhere. The staff was great!!

We were placed in a spot with a very steep hill. We had to back up and take a run at it to make it up with the camper. We had low water pressure and then no water one day. They did get it fixed by afternoon. If you stay here book the spots in the flat area behind the office. The spots above, by the hotel are very steep.

Beautiful resort with good amenities. The mattress in our cabin was awful very thin and basically non existent making it very hard to sleep and there is practically no internet connection the WiFi that is offered rarely works.

Very nice site, friendly staff, great location. Would like to see a few more groceries sold in the store (fruit). The additional $3 fee for our pet was a surprise. Would stay there again.

It was so amazing we stayed 3extra days! Although the spaces aren't big you offer so much for the whole family. Loved it!

We ended up staying an extra night and were disappointed that nothing was done to contact someone who overstayed in the spot we reserved for our last night and ended up moving to a less desirable spot. Overall it was wonderful, clean, and a great location for everything we wanted to do. We booked another weekend before we left. One suggestion - a non-dairy option at the ice-cream shop!

Very nice park. We were there just for an overnight so did not really unpack or use the amenities. But my observations were such that it was a jumping place and busy. We were not disturbed by unruly guests for such a busy place.

Every detail was perfect

Only complaint is that the resort does not recycle beverage cans or plastic bottles. Can you explain why you don’t?

Was supposed to have cable TV but had none. They said the row we were in, cable has been down since last year. Was not fixed and no one wanted to help us just kept passing the buck and they said wait to talk w manager next day. That person no help either. Sites were stated as FULL hookup. Very disappointing for the money spent to stay!

Short but GREAT stay at this KOA! Very friendly and super organized. It was very busy but you really didn’t notice - well laid out to minimize the “big place feel”. A lot of construction in the area but we didn’t hear it in the back of the park. Would definitely stay here again!

We love to meet our family there every year. We have been meeting our siblings and families there for over 10 years. Our site jumped up in price quite a bit this year!! The bathrooms near 378 - 380 definitely need upgrades. We have already booked for 2025 but we are talking about searching for a different place due to cost and cleanliness. The Clarin Family

The nicest RV Resort we’ve ever stayed at. So many amenities, you never had to leave camp! So much for everyone. A kids camping Disneyland!

We had to extend our stay due to truck issues. The staff were very accommodating each time we had to change. Our grandson age 9 truly enjoyed the mini golf and the pool and slide and fishing pond.

We had a great time. We look forward to coming back in the future. There were a lot activities and we felt all were well run.

Great people and great place to stay while visiting the Black Hills and surrounding area. We stayed at this resort 24 years ago and enjoyed it then too.

The resort its self is beautiful. The sites are really close together not nice if you are looking at staying at the camper with family or friends. The dog park is terrible so I would say they are not dog friendly.
Jun 12, 2024
The amenities are outstanding but many of the sites are awful. The first site they tried to put us in was only fit for a very short rig or a tent. There was no way to back in there. They graciously changed us to another site that was barely accessible. We had to put the passenger side on risers to get half way level. Minimal space outside and they were spaced almost on top of each other.

Yes we have so many things to do for kids, but what about senior citizens. you need a quite side for us. also the car we rented was dirty, couldn't see out the windows. Nice Place

Really loved the campground my friends and I were very happy there. Prices are a little steep.
Jun 12, 2024
Loved the extra programs. Our site was perfect. We plan another trip to your campground in the near future.

Great place to stay with kids. Had an issue with my camper and maintenance helped me fix it without hesitation. Only complaint would be the cost of firewood, $8 a bundle is outrageous for pine, and some bundles only had 4 logs in them!

This KOA is a true resort. It is very well kept and has a lot of amenities and activities for kids. It is also in a great location to access Mount Rushmore and many of the best hiking trails in Custer Park.

No sewer at our site. Your online booking should have been more clear!!!!! Also should not advertise WIFI!!!! It was horrible! Quite hours are not followed. Coin machine in laundry did not work the whole time we were there. No available sanitation stations anywhere. Showers awful!! Golf carts are a menace!!

Good activities, employees helpful. Coffee shop very slow both days. We were glad to get the last tent site, but tenting on dirty dirt was dirty. The $15 towel i bought was SO LINTTY it left me blue every time I used it and the showers. Liked watching the horses running down in the morning

Amazing. The “fanciest” KOA we have ever visited. People were friendly, organized and helpful.

Had a wonderful experience! The property was impressive and well maintained. All the staff we encountered were incredibly friendly and helpful. Loved the onsite amenities available. Food options were great. Would highly recommend and hope to stay again some day!

Great facility, clean, lots to do as a family! We loved our campsite and the view was amazing! Everyone was very friendly and helpful, except the bathroom cleaning crew at the store. My husband and son were barged in on while in the bathroom and the cleaning crew refused to leave. They were peeking into the stalls where they were and this happened several times during our stay. Other than this incident, everything was super fun!
