RV Reviews

The bathrooms in station #3 were the worst we’ve seen. Feces on the floor and toilets multiple times. My son and some friends found poop in the pool. They were the first ones in the pool that morning so clearly the pool hadn’t been checked by staff from the day before. Would have expected higher standards of cleanliness for a resort like this. Very disappointing

Rv site was extremely unlevel

It was our first time in the area. We enjoyed our stay. Campground was always clean and plenty of entertainment for the kids. I liked the pancake breakfast in the mornings.

Sites on the hill are small and hard to level. Overall great park with nice amenities and good food. We went on rodeo weekend and had a great time.

This Mount Rushmore KOA Resort at Palmer Gulch was an awesome experience during our stay in the Black Hills. Clean and well maintained grounds and common areas. On site food options are great and availability of riding stables makes this a perfect option when visiting the Mount Rushmore area of the Black Hills.

From God’s created beauty, to amenities, to staff, this is an amazing place. There were 18 of us in 4 Patio Sites and 1 Deluxe Cabin and many great memories were made even before we went sight-seeing. The favorites in our family were horse-back riding, Chuckwagon Dinner, water slide, heated pool, mini golf, all-you-can-eat pancakes and bikes. The Comfort stations were clean.

Had to move sites twice because the deluxe pull thorough I paid was the top deluxe and we were on top of a mountain. The Peak Grill and Taphouse ruined the stay. Such an awful experience. We were scouting for a large group for next year, but will now probably pass this resort.

You have two many Kubota’s rtv going up and down the road all day long making noise starting at 5:30 to 6 am!! There is no piece and quiet.

Nice KOA! Everything went well. Our kids loved the pool an s mini golf. Our only issue was that we had no phone service anywhere in the KOA, and the WiFi did not work well. So we couldn’t make any calls, texts or look up maps or info for our next day of exploring.

Fantastic campground. We got a spot in the trees so was extra nice. So much to do at the campground hard to believe anyone leaves to sightsee.

Wonderful amenities, staff helpful. Nice campground.

We had a wonderful time! First time being here and we live two hours away. We will be back for sure. So many fun things to do. FYI… Site 561 has very dangerous stumps sticking up that we all tripped over many times.

Overall this is our second time here. I love the environment. I wish there was a more stable wifi but overall its my top blackhills campground.

Very clean and well maintained campgrounds, pools, recreation areas etc. Lots of activities for children and adults. Two big thumbs up for allowing young foreigners to come from all over the world to work there and get the experience working and interacting with campers.

Everything very well organized. Lots and lots to do. Coming with kids? The place to be!! Staff super friendly and helpful. Very, very busy and big.

Very well run! Lots of great amenities and activities for all ages. Shops, restrooms/facilities all very well maintained. Most staff were very friendly. The pancake tent had workers who saw us struggling with the water jug and didn’t fill it up until we asked. That staff seemed the most disengaged of all staff who were great.

Friendly staff beautiful area

Wow! I wish I had known has great it would be. Nice people, spectacular amenities, plenty to do on the property. My favorite was watching the horse run back and forth every morning and night.

We love the site. However, for us, we used very few of the amenities. We would have preferred a more remote site.

Great location to lots of destinations. Friendly,helpful staff. Morning/evening horse parade to/from the front stable is fun to see. Clean restrooms and facilities.

Great resort but the actual campsites are small

Nice place, staff was great. Cost of doing laundry could be more reasonable, but when you have a captive market and it’s inconvenient to go elsewhere, I guess you can charge what you want.

Very well laid out and unbelievable amenities for everyone in the family. Two large pools, pickleball court, lodge in case you don’t camp, and lots of different sizes of cabins, all sizes of RV spots with full hookups and even tent camping.Huge riding stables and horse drawn covered wagons to the chuck wagon dinner.

We really enjoyed our stay here. Quiet and peaceful atmosphere at night and plenty of amenities for our daughter during the day. We have nothing bad to say!

Very friendly and welcoming staff. Well stocked store. Nice campgrounds in the woods. Various activities! Clean showers. The only thing I didn’t like was the WiFi was erratic. Most of the time I had no internet service.
Jun 03, 2026
Definitely needs better internet service.

Our family and friends had a blast camping and enjoying all the amenities at the resort! This trip will be one we will always remember!

The location was our first draw but when we got there, we were thrilled with all the activities. This place is great for young kids. The shops and restaurants onsite were unexpected and very convenient. Great stay!

We had a great week there. Really good special rate but it was quickly taken aaay by the high rate for a one night extension for weather considerations in our travel. �

Everything was great except the condition and appearance of the picnic table we had at spot 128. I would be embarrassed to have my customers see that table.

Friendly staff, great attractions and so much to do!
Jun 03, 2026
This is by far the best KOA out there! Such a beautiful area with so many attractions near by! We will be back some day!
Jun 03, 2026
From check-in to check-out the staff was friendly, professional, and helpful. We have stayed in other KOA camps and this one tops them all! Wonderful and plentiful amenities and friendly staff!
