Elkview Campground
The owner's and employees at Elkview are ALL some of the nicest people I have ever met! We stayed for 8 days during the Sturgis Rally and thouroughly enjoyed ourselves. We actually had as much fun at the campground as we did in Sturgis and riding the beautiful Black Hills. The homecooked meals available during the rally are fantstic! This is a Low Frills campground but they have all the comforts: Full hookups, 50amp Electric, and WiFi. I understand that the amenities are limited during other parts of the camping season, so call ahead for details. Once again, I cannot say enough good things about the owners and employees. We felt like we sincerely met several new friends that we will stay in touch with for years to come! We already put in our reservation request for next year!!!...

Trout Haven

Been here more than I can count. The kids always love feeding the fish (trout ponds). The food is delicious. For a really good time, fish for your dinner. It's guaranteed fresh(you caught it) & they cook it up for you or pack it to go. A really nice campground with nice people running it. Very Clean....Excellent Campsite! Highly recommended and they even have onsite breakfast, lunch and dinner available on a cabin like cafe sitting on their own little pond. Very quiet and peaceful setting even during the Rally (as quiet as you can expect :))

Terry Peak

1 PHOTO
Terry Peak Ski Area is positioned geographically to receive a substantial amount snowfall through the winter months. With elevations of 5,900-ft to over 7,000-ft. more snow can fall on Terry Peak than anywhere else in the region. It's common for snowfall predictions to exceed up to three times of what was anticipated or to receive snowfall at 5,500-ft and higher when snow wasn't expected at all. However it's important to remember that we can depend on snow at Terry Peak. With the efficient high-tec snowmaking system covering 60% of the mountain, good conditions are assured from the begriming to end of the season. Stay posted to our web site and live mountain cams for dependable surface and weather conditions. Remember: SNOW HAPPENS AT TERRY PEAK!...
