Enjoy the stay camping

RVs at Whistler Gulch

Opened in 1998

Whistler Gulch Campground is celebrating over 25 years of hosting guests each summer. Camping with us gives you that 'Out of Town' feel with all the conveniences of still being in the town of Deadwood. We will have you on your way to enjoying your stay after you pull up to our registration area and proceed to check in at our beautiful log cabin lodge located at the bottom of the gulch.

Once in the building, you will be greeted by our friendly staff in our beautifully decorated reception area. Along with checking into your site, you will also be able to purchase your firewood, convenience items and gifts . Our brand new gift shop offers great items like WGC shirts and hats as well as camping themed gift items to enjoy at your site or take home as a gift for others. Our laundry facility is also part of the lodge and it is open 24 hours a day through the side access door.

We offer Sleeping Cabins, RV sites, Tents and coming in Summer 2026, a Full Service Cabin with private restroom and "Ready-to-Rent" RV site with fully set up trailers. PLUS! With RVs growing in length, slides and amenities, we now offer Premium Pull Thru and Back In sites that include an RV pad as well as a second pad for extra parking. Perfect for big trailers and big 'toys' to be parked right next to your RV so you can head out for the day right from your site.
