Stockade Lake South Campground

There are 2 campgrounds at Stockade Lake. Stockade Lake North is located on the western side of Custer State Park off of US Hwy 16A about 4 miles east of the town of Custer. Stockade Lake South is located on the south side of the lake. Both campgrounds are beautiful, tucked in trees, close to the lake, and not as popular as some of the other more well known campgrounds in Custer State Park. When we went there, it was a very quiet and peaceful. Stockade Lake South is small with 23 campsites and 13 cabins available.

Our spot for the night.

Pretty nice spots spread out.

Interesting fire pits at some of the campsites.

The cabins are a pretty nice option.

Ditches on both sides of our camping spot and a tight turn getting our camper in.

These ditches were pretty bad at our campsite making getting in a little tough with our camper.

Just down the road from the campsite you can hike to a cool overlook of the lake.

Beautiful flowers in the area above the lake and near the campground.

Hiked to get a pretty sunrise. So much pollen in the air, everything was hazy.
