Near Badlands National Park
Within a 30-minute drive from the Pinnacles.
This ranch is the home of Cowgirl Annie. It has had two movies about the Battle of the Little Bighorn filmed on it. The Lytle's raise Red Angus cows and Alfalfa hay. The ranch has Juniper trees in the river breaks and cottonwoods in the river valley. A wide variety of wildlife and birds can be found on the ranch. Visitors will likely get to see deer and hear the coyotes howling and observe other critters. This ranch is over 1500 acres. Campsite is about a mile off of Interstate 90. Wall Drug and the Badlands National park are about 20 minutes away. Visitors are encouraged to hike and play in the river. There are plenty of good areas to play hide and seek along with logs to climb on. There isn't much light pollution so you can enjoy stargazing on a clear night. Attractions in the Black Hills are about 60 miles away.This site is in an abandoned gravel pit. No amenities will be provided. There is a ban on all fires. This campsite is surrounded by cottonwood and Russian olive trees. Deer often hang out in this area along with turkeys and other wildlife. The river is just a short hike from the campground. There is little light pollution so the night sky is great for stargazing. coyotes, frogs, and crickets like to serenade you at night.

Yup, it’s a gravel pit, but it’s surrounded by beauty. Easy place to park our Skoolie. Very close to the Badlands. Our Starlink got great service. We felt very safe and secluded.

Nature-filled Gem
12 ft pop-up camper · With kids
We read the mixed reviews and weren't sure what to expect. When we arrived, Angela drove us to several different options for places to set up. I could see how people would have different experiences depending on the site, their setup, how much they explore, weather, bugs (we weren't bothered by any), and their preferences. For our family with three kids (new to hipcamp and popup campers), this was a total gem. We added on a night and would come back! Some notes: - The location in a valley so it feels protected from wind but you still can see plenty around you and don't feel like you're in a valley. You can walk up to the ridge for more expansive views. - We loved exploring the land! We saw deer, a skunk, and a turkey-ish family. We saw snake skin, a cattle skull, a bird nest, and signs of a beaver by the Cheyenne River. - Kids couldn't walk barefoot like they typically do because of various prickly plants-- which is to be expected with the terrain in the region. - Kids could have played all day sorting through rock piles and surfing down the gravel. - The composting toliet setup in a mini tent tucked behind the trees was simple and is what it is. It was a nice back-up option we didn't use. Thanks, Angela, for the opportunity to stay on your property.

Great views and super private.. Tons of space to set up. Owner was super helpful. Great rock hounding spot. Tons of space to wander and walk the dogs. Cattle walked by often. 10 mins to Wall, 1hr to Mt' Rushmore and 35 mins to Rapid City. Awesome Boondocking site.

Location + The Great Outdoors

Angela couldn't be nicer and the location is AMAZING. However, I suggest you consider yourself a pretty hearty Hip Camper to enjoy this spot. On the positive side: It is remote and isolated. You are sure to have your privacy. You are surrounded by nature and there are no neighbors nearby. The walk to the river is difficult, but worth it. The host is friendly and wonderful. Our dog loved roaming free. On the possible drawbacks (depending on your tenacity): There are a lot of insects; red ants, mosquitos, flies, and ticks. There is wildlife; my dog found her very own black/white kitty to play with (AKA skunk) the very first night we were there. She also found fresh bull dung to roll in the second day. This is no fault of the host, but you should know what's possible. Angela was wonderful and brought us rags, buckets, dog shampoo and even some essential oils to help with the smell. In the end, I would say this campsite in relative closeness to the Badlands is terrific, but you best be ready for the great outdoors and then some.
