The moment you get to thinking the only thing South Dakota has to offer is Mount Rushmore, you'll know it's time to venture out to Blue Bell Campground and find a relaxing getaway in the scenic Custer State Park.

There’s a home amongst the ponderosa pine here for rugged tent campers and RV aficionados alike. Glampers too will find their niche in one of the cozy cabins offered at Blue Bell. You’ll only have to share the place with the deer frolicking through the forest and the couple bison roaming around the park!
