General Guidelines

Ripple Creek Campground is not responsible for lost or stolen items. Though the campground is

monitored under security, we highly recommend keeping personal items on you or locked in your cabin, RV, or tent. Ripple Creek is not responsible for death or injury due to general camping practices. Please be safe and mindful of your surroundings.

If there is any damage or loss of items supplied by the campground, your card will be charged for repairs or to replace any missing items.

Check in time is from 2:00pm-8:00pm. Check out time is 11am. If for any reason you need to request a check-in or check-out time outside of these timeframes, please contact the host.

Quiet time is monitored to ensure campers can enjoy the peace and quiet the Black Hills have to offer, as well as get a good night’s rest. This time is from 10pm-6am.

Absolutely no smoking in cabins, pavilion, or shower house. Please use one of the designated areas for smoking. No discharge of firearms, and no fireworks are allowed at the campground.

Please note - cell service is spotty at the campground. We do offer WiFi for our guests so that you can stay connected if you choose.

Management reserves the right to remove guests for violation of campground policies with no refund.

Bookings and Cancellation/Refund Policy

A 50% deposit is required at the time of booking to ensure your reservations are locked.

All event, holiday, and Sturgis Rally bookings require full payment at the time of booking.

Please note- The annual Sturgis Motorcycle Rally typically takes place during the first full week of August.

Pricing is adjusted for the week prior to and the last weekend of the Rally.

We reserve the right to adjust pricing at any time. All reservations made prior to any price changes will be honored. Pricing is subject to change based on season, events, holidays and demand.

If you need to cancel your reservation for any reason, we require a 3-day notice prior to your stay and a fee of $35 will be charged to your card. If you need to cancel after the 3-day notice, you will be charged the full amount of your reservation, and no refund will be issued.

Event, holiday, and Sturgis Rally reservations are non-refundable. If you must cancel your reservation during these times, you take on the cost regardless of when you notify us.

3 days before your reservation, any unpaid balance will be drafted to ensure payment is complete upon arrival. Upon departure, your account must be paid in full if any additional items were purchased on site.

A processing fee of 2.9% plus a $0.30 per transaction fee will be applied to all card payments. This fee reflects the cost incurred by Ripple Creek Campground to process card transactions. The total processing fee charged will not exceed the actual merchant processing cost paid by Ripple Creek Campground. By submitting payment, the guest acknowledges and agrees to this fee. Additional state, county, tourism, GRT, and merchandise tax is applied to all bookings and merchandise purchases.

Pet Policy

We happily accept up to two dogs per reservation at the campground. There is a $10 nightly fee for each dog that stays. Dogs must remain on leashes when out of the cabins and be respectful of the other campers. We kindly ask that you clean up after your dog and offer supply stations for your convenience.

Dogs are allowed in the cabins; however, you will be financially responsible for any damage. Please note, Cabin Two is NOT pet-friendly.

Note- Though we clean cabins after every stay, we have dedicated one, bunk style cabin, to be pet free in case of allergies. Please book accordingly or speak with the host if arrangements need to be made.

We allow horse boarding during your stay for a $25 nightly fee. Horses are to be kept in designated areas. You are responsible for all care and feeding. A tub is provided for water.

Note- Ripple Creek Campground is not liable for any harm, loss, or death of animals kept during your stay.
