This KOA Resort is everything you would hope a KOA Resort in the Black Hills would be... The amenities were awesome, the store and staff great. site was easily accessible and we loved our first Rodeo!

We loved your campground resort. My only suggestion is that the lower to the ground bikes that children were riding had a flag on a pole so they were easily seen. I believe these bikes, not a traditional bike, were rented through your campground.

The only thing was our group went to Mount Rushmore at night and when we came back some worker followed our group and started making accuseing comments. Luckily the person he went after was a police officer who calmed the guy down. We have been going there for over four years and this is the time this has ever happened.

This was our second stay at this campground. Great sites, excellent activities and the entire staff is top notch. Definitely recommend if you’re staying in the Rushmore area!

It was our first time in a KOA and it was amazing!! The campground was clean and all the staff were so friendly. We only stayed there for only one night but we wished we would have stayed much longer.

It was clean with more amenities than expected. Only issue is that the fishing pond is advertised as stocked with fish, but in reality there are no fish in it

There's only enough room to park your camper and not enough room for your vehicle. The pancakes are not free.

We’ll definitely be back! We needed more time to both enjoy the campground amenities as well as explore the many site seeing adventures and cool shops in downtown Hill City.

Surprised the pads aren't level and not paved for the price. Also need better markings on sites that glow in the dark or are lit. Need a large map on registration so you can locate stuff if you are out late. Need to ensure ANYONE coming in before close for a parking pass gets a map. Our granddaughter had a horrendous time locating us. It took her 40 minutes and help from security.

Great stay wonderful staff

Our stay was very enjoyable. The grandkids had a ball! Our only complaint was that the wifi and cell service hardly worked at all! We understand the topography has a lot to do with that but we relied on the “wifi included” and had to resort to some extra efforts ( leaving the park) as needed. Other than that KOA at Palmer Gulch was great!!

There is bedlam at check in. For the price and location, I expected the sites to be paved. But they were not, and we had rain. And mud. Lots of mud. The sites are very close together. This location offers many activities for travelers with kids, but our kids are grown and we won't be back here. Seems lots of people bring their kids here to let them run and ride around unsupervised.

Amazing staff and facilities as always. We will always come back!

The trap house restaurant employees need training. This was the worst ran restaurant I’ve ever been too.

Our first impression was “wow!”. The campground is huge, situated within a beautiful landscape in the black hills and has so many fun activities to offer for kids. We really enjoyed our stay there. Everything was well maintained, the RV site was great, staff was super helpful and friendly. The kids were disappointed we only stayed 2 nights. We would absolutely recommend this campground!

Huge KOA! Lots of activities for everyone. Very friendly staff, very clean park.

Everything was clean and amenities were great. However, for longer stays, you should offer a discounted rate. Stay 3 nights,get a forth free or half off. We stayed 6 and paid full price + resort fees. That adds up to be quite a bit.

No-existent WiFi

Campground amenities are great, but most campsites are quite small compared to other KOA campgrounds we’ve stayed at.

This is by far the best campground in the United States for kids and parents. It is a generational staple in our family! 7 times with our kids and this trip was from Florida! see you again.
Jun 28, 2026
We think the camp sites are a little to close to one and other. We did enjoy the extra activities available at the park. The restroom near the coffee shop needs to be cleaned more frequently . Great location

We love this campground!

Great RV Park and location close to all adventures. Campsites, amenities and facilities were excellent and well maintained. Would have been a 5 Star Rating if it wasn’t for having “Wet Firewood”delivered by staff to our site.

Beautiful campground, great amenities! Nice clean restrooms!

What a wonderful place to stay.

The location in the Black Hills was perfect for all of the activities and sights we wanted to see. There were plenty of activities for our kids. The entire property was clean and well maintained.

Over priced, crowded and FILTHY! We stayed for two nights and comfort station number 4 never had paper towels in the restroom! It was so dirty the entire time! Very disappointed in this KOA! Like I said on my other reviews bigger does not always mean better and this was definitely the case for this KOA.

The overall stay there was great as first time RV rental and first time using KOA resort. Should have planned better the drive distance to this location and the route to Mt Rushmore need to say 16 highway is the route RV s need to take and this was my only hook up. I got there late at midnight and I had to come the back way in, but by the grace of God and Wife and both our military land naviga we

Such a beautiful place. Clean, friendly but since it was near the fall season the store was closed.

This jam packed KOA has it all. 2 pools. Waterslide. Playgrounds. Restaurants on the property. Horseback riding. Rodeo. UTV rentals. Lots of activities for the kids. Bounce pillow. It's right down the road from Mount Rushmore. Bathrooms were cleaned regularly. Cell phone reception is pretty poor, but you can't blame KOA. WiFi is pretty good if you are near their hotspots. There was always KOA employees ripping around, which they should slow down a little bit. We did experience the bees as mentioned by other reviewers. Everyone had a great time and we enjoyed our stay.

Great first experience with KOA! The reservation process was easy, and changing our dates was very convenient. Communication with Dee Dee before arrival was excellent, and check-in was quick and easy. The campground was clean, especially the bathrooms, and all the guests were very respectful. The sites are a little close together, so I would probably avoid the busy summer season. Overall, we were very impressed and would definitely stay here again!
