For Blue Bell - Custer State Park: This campground is luscious, green, and wooded. There's a creek that goes through the back of the campground and it was really quiet (early season and COVID-19 related, I'm sure). The campground has sites for all types of campers, from Class A rigs to tent campers, and even those looking for primitive cabins in the woods. Most of the RV sites are electric only (only the camp host is set up with full hookups), but there are a couple of water spigots throughout the campground and there are a couple of sites that do have water spigots, but not many. There is not a dump station at the campground, but there is on the other side of the park (a 12-mile drive, but approximately a 30-45 minute drive depending on traffic). We were told by the current camp hosts that a couple of years ago, the campground was redone to level out sites and provide more access for bigger rigs. We had no problem maneuvering and leveling our 38 foot fifth wheel toy hauler in the campground. Because the sites aren't pull-throughs, getting the toy out of the garage required taking up another site, but the campground wasn't full at the time and we were lucky to have the site across from us empty.
We would absolutely stay here again. In fact, we tried to make reservations for later season (in September) and it is fully reserved at this time. Overall access to the nearby cities, hiking trails, and monuments makes this campground a no-brainer for anyone looking to spend some time in this area. South Dakota is incredibly beautiful and this campground does not disappoint. In fact, we were going to spend half our time at the Legion Lake campground and we decided (after a drive through of the other site) that we just wanted to stay where we were (much more wooded and so pretty).
Regarding cell service, we had the following results: Verizon = 2-3.5 Mbps down and AT&T = 5-8 Mbps.
14E specific site information: Access is easy, directly across from bathrooms/showers and camp hosts. Large wooded area behind site with no other campers.
18E is a fantastic site - in our opinion, maybe the best site in the campground. This site had incredible views off the backside with only one neighbor. Backed to a view of the creek and wooded area.
