Stockade Lake
Stockade Lake is the largest lake in Custer State Park and is located on Highway 16A just east of the town of Custer. The lake has 2 campgrounds, and is the only lake in the park that allows all boats. The lake has a swimming beach, a playground, and is near some of the Black Hills Points of Interest such as the Gordon Stockade - the site of the first gold discovery in the Black Hills.
