Bear Den is a small camp with 3 Glamping Tents, 2 cabins and shower house. Outdoor spaces for relaxing. We are located approximately 5 miles from Custer State Park, 11 miles from Keystone the Gateway to Mt. Rushmore in the beautiful southern Black Hills. Cabins have electricity, our tents do not have electricity. Cabins and showers are heated and open year round! All sites including 'bring your own tent' sites have access to the shower house and outdoor grilling areas. Pick a spot to pitch your own tent, one tent per space. If you have 2 tents please book 2 sites. We have 3 spots cleared. Hang your hammock in trees around the property. This option includes all access to the shower house and outdoor grilling areas!

Tammy has a wonderful campground she has clearly put tons of effort into making and loves what she does. This is a must stay for anyone passing through the area or even staying long term. Thanks for having us!

Lil' Bear Cabin
Best place around
Tammy is such a warm host! She always makes me feel welcome when I stay with her. This time I brought my son and he was over the moon about the lil bear cabin, the hammock, and roaming the space. The facilities are the cleanest of any place I’ve ever stayed, and the little thoughtful touches throughout are so well done. We will definitely be back!

Lil' Bear Cabin
I had a great stay at Lil Bear Cabin! Tammy was very welcoming and showed me around before settling in. The cabin and bathroom were very clean and well kept. It was great to sit outside with the propane fire with some coffee (also provided).

We loved our stay here. Tammy is the most incredible host ever, she is so kind and willing. The campground itself is beautiful, clean showers, great sitting area and just stunning area around. I definitely recommend staying here on your travels.

Lil' Bear Cabin
Book it now! You’ll be glad!
This is a hidden gem! Every detail was just as described in the reviews. Close to Custer State Park, extremely clean, comfortable, and full of all the little things you may have forgotten to pack. Tammy makes sure you’re safe and comfortable from start to finish. You’ll leave feeling like you’ve made a new friend. Definitely go for this place above all others!

Site 2 - Bear Den Hang and Stay
There aren’t enough words to describe how incredible my experience was here. Tammy greeted me with a bear hug like we had been friends for years. As a 23 year old solo traveller I’m always hesitant staying anywhere but a hotel, but I felt safer here. The amenities were fantastic and spotless clean. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone I know passing through South Dakota
