This is a luxury RV Park: beautiful manicured lawns, drives and RV sites. The sites are spread out and we requested a more private site because we have our 2 dogs. There is no bits of garbage on the ground, everything here is perfect.
My husband said that the bathroom was a little small but very clean.
This facility has every amenity from a beautiful swimming pool, a store, .. there is a very positive feeling here, celebratory, happy. I'm happy to have spent 2 nights.
We had water and electricity. Every site has a really nice fire ring with grill, picnic table, ...
We have stayed at Rafter J for years and LOVE this campground! However, the last 3 years we have had to book with other campgrounds because they are impossible to get ahold of on the phone, and their voice mail box is full! I happened to get a live person on 1.2.24 and he told me that I had to book online via the online reservations booking system starting at 8:00am on 1.3.24 it would be available and working. IT STILL SAYS UNAVAILABLE, AND THE VOICE MESSAGE IS FROM 2022... I am super sad, but think I am done trying to book with Rafter J, not that it will really matter but hopefully someone will care.
We stayed here and loved it. Property is beautifully. We had an amazing view of the mountains. The grounds are maintained . Our site was mostly level but we were in a slant.
I wish the table and chairs weren’t above us so that we would have been under our awning.
Everyone was very nice and friendly. Centrally located for Mount Rushmore, Crazy horse, Needles Highway and wildlife loop. Short ride to Custer downtown and Hill city downtown . Easy ride to Rapid City.
We would stay here again.
We inadvertently stayed here after a planned reservation at another near by campground fell through. We had no reservation and the kind security guard, Terry worked with us to help get us settled in at 9:30 at night. We woke up and were surrounded by a beautiful area. Great onsite staff. Highly recommend. Full hookup was available. Biking trail connector as well. Loved it.
By far the best campground we have been to in the 5 weeks we have been traveling. Beautiful grounds at every site, clean restrooms and laundry room. Staff was very helpful in giving us the top places to go.
Next time I am headed to the area, I will be looking to book one of their premium sites and if there is none (premium sites) available, I will still be booking my stay here in their standard site like I was in this time.
Thank you Rafters J Bar for an amazing stay!
One of the best places in the US. Feels home here, clean and green. Tons of space, ambiance is very relaxing and calm. Close to all black hill hotspots. Very clean and well cared for property. Family owned and operated. Pool is clean and heated. The only downside is cell signal is limited, but it can be a positive thing too.
The campground is absolutely beautiful. We just came back from an 8 night stay, the grounds are immaculate. The pool is great - our kids loved it. The camping areas are spread out, giving you beautiful rolling hill views instead of just campers packed tight together. Every time we talked to the guys at the front desk they were very nice and helpful. We go to the Black Hills every year and this will be our first pick from now on.
Absolutely loved this place. We had an extra long back-in site with plenty of space for our 39ft MH, trailer, car and motorcycle. Love the sites are well spaced. All the different camping areas are very nice. There was a pool and hot tub, which looked nice but we didn't use them. There was wifi but not a strong signal, like most parks, which is fine. Great location!! Our particular site didn't really have shade but many of the sites do. I will say I wish they would guide you to your spot on arrival. Took us 2 passes to find our site.
