I'd suggest Ironhorse Inn in Whitewood, SD...6 miles from Main St with free rides downtown on Da Bus every hour or so. Parking right at your door & on site beer & food. Stayed there in 2013 & 2015 & would stay again...better call now though.

If you will be camping Elkview Campgrounds at exit 37 on I-90 about 6 miles east of Sturgis is a good place. I have been there for the last 12 years.
It was $16/person/nite for the 75th last year with preregistration. There is no need to reserve tent sites but RV hook ups are more limited.
I just cannot pay the gouging prices that the motels have during Sturgis.

In 2014 we stayed at the "Ride n Rest". Very nice place, not real pricey. They have camping and a few cabins, very clean showers and food and beer on site.
This is not a rowdy place so if you are looking for insanity, Glencoe or Buffalo Chip might be better choices.

we rented a house in Spear fish for 7 days. it was expensive but split 7 ways was around 400 bucks a person. Worth it to us as we got to do our own cooking, was 30 miles away from the big party, got to ride spearfish canyon several times and had a hot tub and nice shower every day. Plus the group got to bench ride each evening. we did go to Sturgis several evenings but it was nice to get away from the event for some rest.

There were 16 of us in a house near Lead, at the Terry Mountain Ski Area. If the right two guys did it, all of our bikes fit in the garage.
Short ride to Deadwood. Lewis Grille about 1 mile, at bottom of hill.
Arranged with Dakota Mart to deliver all of our food and beverages.

My first trip to Sturgis this year as well!
We are staying at Hog Heaven Campground, which is a 2 week reservation as well. Since it's a million bikers out there, it gives you the week before the rally to show up and grab a good spot, then obviously the whole week of the rally.
This place sounded kind of mellow, but near town.

Stayed at the Creekside campground last year, worked out nice, especially if you like a little peace and quiet once you decide to rack out.
Whatever you are going to do, you better make reservations soon. Doubt it will be anywhere near what it was last year though.
