Camping at Sheridan North Cove Grp Cg

Public campground · 5 campsites · 5 group

A forested campground near trout fishing, hiking, and mountain biking.

About this campground

Recreation radiates outward from the lake and into the wider Black Hills National Forest. At the campground you can launch a boat for waterskiing, swim off the beach, or fish for rainbow and brown trout, northern pike and perch; fly fishing is especially productive in Spring Creek below the dam, and ice fishing draws anglers in winter.

“We enjoyed that this site was isolated. Plenty of room for tents on both sides of the parking lot. Several cooking options with grills and two fire pits. We were a group of 20 and it worked very well for us.”
