You can stay at the Elkview Campgrounds on I-90 just 6 miles east bound from Sturgis. It cost $20/nite and no reservations needed. Clean shower and restroom facilities.

It is quiet and has a returant/bar.

I have stayed there for the last five years. I have not seen everything there is to do yet. My favorite activity is going on all the possible rides.

If you are moteling it make your reservations early (now would be good). Also plan on spending double the normal rate per night. There many, many great places to ride! Enjoy.
