Default sturgis accommodations

It's my first time heading to sturgis. What are my best ( most reasonable ) accommodations? 5 or 6 people going, cabin or camping is acceptable. We will probably stay Monday- Thursday.

Thanks

Depends what you are looking for at Sturgis.

We always camp at Glencoe. The link below will provide you with lots of information.

Have fun.

I have friends that go every year. They always stay at Glencoe. Right now, the wristbands are $174 each for tent camping and it covers the full two weeks. We are going for our first time this year and have decided that is the way we are going.

They also have free coffee in the morning. BONUS!

We thought about Lamphere as many friends like that place and it is only like $28 per day but it is camping only. No entertainment. So we figured we would then have to pay for everything we wanted to do . Glencoe has entertainment that is all included in the wristband.

We, a group of 6 couples, always opted for a cabin.....nice comforts of home....but then we are not party people....but for 4-5 nights camping might be fun if we had no women around...someday we will get a hall pass.
Have fun....and don't drink and drive.

If you want to party stay at The Buffalo Chip...Wrist band includes camping and nightly entertainment.
We always stay down in the black hills near Keystone area..
