Tent Reviews

I loved it! Very friendly staff! I loved the pancake breakfasts in the morning, my friend and I were traveling on motorcycle, so it was so convenient to have food right at the campground rather than fight traffic during the Sturgis bike rally to find restaurants. Thank you all!

We stayed in our car and a tent until it rained hard. Unfortunately we had to leave due to not being able to afford it anymore.

The yellow posts on the tent sites could use some reflective tape or a plastic tube around them or anything else to make them more visible. Very easy to run into ��

I always love staying there with a site that overlooks the city and the sunset. Staff very helpful.

I had a very enjoyable stay. The season is winding down so it was not so crowded this stay. Check in was quick and easy. Workers were amiable and friendly.

It was 100 degree days. The old lady out is in a spot with NO shade. They did not fill up all the tent spots and when we asked to change she said she couldn’t was jot nice until another worker said put them in three that has shade. For 54 dollars a night don’t you think they would put you in the best open spots they have. We shouldn’t have had to ask. I can’t stand cranky old woman.

This was an incredible KOA to stay at. Everything was clean and staff were very friendly. No issues at all. Will definitely stay at this KOA again if in the area.

It was great Campground but had a big drawback -- huge amount of noise from what sounded like a drag race track until after 10:00pm. Many of us campers are early to bed folks and this was very disruptive. I was disappointed the Campground hosts did not warn us about this large problrm

Great place to stay. Outstanding shower facilities. But the grass tent site needs some upkeep. Grass is thinning out badly.

I'm very, very disappointed this time. Our tent spot was very, very lumpy to where we aired our air mattress up at 1:30 in the morning instead of waiting until daylight. The bees were horrible!! It appeared that nothing was being done. Major accident waiting to happen if someone is deathly allergic. Shower rooms by pool could have been cleaned better. Spider webs and bugs

stayed one night while on the road and passing through Rapid City. Was happy with the location being in town yet hidden away from actual town. I was happy with everything available to campers. I hope the kitchen staff can find the nuisance of a nest that was drawing wasps around in mid-August 2023. That was the only thing that stood out for me as a bit of a hindrance to enjoying a nice breakfast.

We loved staying at the KOA Rapid City. It's in a great location with great amenities, like home away from home.

Bathrooms were ok, showers were good. So many loud people and bikes.

Horribly rude manager! No military discount, “KOA or no way” according to the manager. Was not willing to listen to any exceptions. Children are 5 and under, what a joke. Even though we paid, we did not stay here. KOA at Palmer Gulch is everything this KOA is not. I will go out of my way to not recommend this place!

Pool pancakes and plenty of bikers to chat with…great tenting experience.
Aug 12, 2023
Great staff. Fun and friendly. All you can eat pancakes. We stay every year for the Rally and it’s a great place to base camp and see all the sights. See you next year!!
Aug 12, 2023
The facility was very clean! Also all of the staff was very friendly. Because of a unfortunate event we had to change our stay, Myself on the web got it changed for what we needed for dealing with the family tragedy, but when we got there, the manager changed everything so we didn’t have to keep moving sites. Thank you to her and all the staff for making our visit incredibly enjoyable!!!

It was the first time ever staying at a KOA and it was fantastic!!! It was very clean and the staff were very helpful and kind. Would highly recommend to family and friends.

We’ve stayed here 2 times summer 2023. 1st near the beginning of a month long trip, 2nd time near the end of the trip (during Sturgis). We tent/car camp. Plenty of space to spread out. Showers are individual-locking rooms… no worry about peepers or sticky fingers. A definite place to find comfort, quiet and relaxation.

Two night stay. Sightseeing in the area. We enjoyed our stay!

Nice KOA. Liked the pancake breakfasts.
Jul 27, 2023
Friendly staff, clean facilities, awesome pool/hot tub, and as always WONDERFUL pancakes at breakfast! I do wish that the shower rooms were just a little bit bigger. But I'm thankful for the shower and to not run out of hot water.
Jul 23, 2023
It was a really nice place loved all the accommodations that they had I would definitely stay again.
Jul 22, 2023
This was my first KOA stay and it was a great experience! Super friendly staff and a great location to stop on our drive out west.
Jul 20, 2023
They were accommodating, we had a dog and needed to switch due to other dogs in the area.

I liked having breakfast there.

The staff was very helpful and extremely friendly! The campground is very well upkept and clean will definitely be staying here for future trips!

You have terrific staff. The camp ground is kept very tidy. The men's washroom had a couple of incidents; garbage can over flowing, clogged toilet, no paper towels. This is a large KOA and I am sure it is difficult to stay on top of everything. Some campers are slobs. Anyways, you have a terrific camp ground with great employees.

Great job with the property and helpful staff.

We had a great experience staying here. Our hosts were fabulous people. The weather turned quite chilly at night but overall it was great a time, we will be back.
Jul 10, 2023
The customer service was fantastic the people that checked me in were very friendly and it was very smooth however the campsites are too close together campsite 97 should not be considered one, when you open your car door to get out you're in the next person's campsite literally in their bonfire there is no grass area to set up a tent when the other ones on the opposite side have a tent. We left.
Jul 10, 2023
Friendly welcome; busy place, clean bathrooms and showers, even just before pool closing. Pool and hot tub were very nice. I wish the pool and hot tub was open later.
Jul 10, 2023
Well organized huge campground with good amenities. Nice pool! Compared to other KOA campgrounds it didn’t feel as welcoming and staff was very businesslike. It just didn’t feel as warm and quite as “family” as in the campgrounds I have been before. And for me this is the most important reason for camping!
Jul 09, 2023
We absolutely loved our stay at the Rapid City KOA. It was a little crowded in the tent area, but we had great neighbors. Staff was incredibly helpful and kind and the location is superb. Thanks for a great stay!

The sites are too close together. Zero room for privacy.
Jul 02, 2023
We had a great time at KOA. They have a lot of amenities, the pool was very well kept and clean. Bathrooms, showers, and laundry were very clean areas. They have a games room and lots to do around the campsite.

Liked the camp and people

Restrooms did not have consistent supply of paper towels-looks like they were stuck inside. Maybe a different more reliable dispenser? Loved the kitchen cleanup sink, thanks. Tent site was only partially grassy. Ofc personnel are very welcoming.

Unfortunately Karon was not pleasant. I didn’t appreciate her comment about my kids that my sisters and staff heard behind my back. I understand correcting my kids for being wild in the store but the comment about how I will buy everything they break (they didn’t even touch anything breakable) and how she is a grandma and she doesn’t tolerate that was inappropriate.

Always good to go anywhere here

I really liked our stay here. The KOA is conveniently located to Rapid City downtown, Mount Rushmore, etc. Our site was long with concrete pad, tables/chairs, and grass! Probably one of the best sites we have had as we didn't have neighbors on one side which meant more grass! Very conveniently located. Friendly staff. Laundry on site is convenient. I will definitely stay here again.

Great place, friendly staff, clean bath and laundry. Great sites for all. Good level spots. Close to all the Black Hills National Forest has to offer. Central to Badlands, Spearfish Canyon and Devils Tower. Cabins, cottages, tent sites, and a nice new pool area. 2 laundry facilities and 3 shower houses. Always clean.
