Stayed at Glenco 2000. They have showers, beer, snack bar with burgers, etc.

If you like to look at *****, there is titty ally. They have tent camping, and RV camping with full hookups. They also have a stage with live bands.

Stayed at Lamphere last year, fair amount of shade, small general store, decent showers,they also serve food although I was there a few days before the rally so the kitchen wasn't up and running yet. All in all seemed like a nice place. One nice thing about it is you could walk to the FTS if you wanted to, about 1/4 mi or take a shuttle. Cops are everywhere on the main drag so not having to ride your bike thru them after having a few beers is a good thing. Another decent place is Creekside CG, 1/2 mi north on 79.

We've stayed here for a number of years and will be there again this year. Great place, low cost, nice people, decent food, clean facilities and a nice store. Nothing fancy, but clean, efficient and comfortable.

Very quiet place for those who want an opportunity to get away from the noise for a while. If you want all night partying you might want to choose somewhere else . . .

Note, Glencoe is across the street, is a different campground and not part of Lamphere.

Lamphere doesn't have nudity (well not much, it is Sturgis after all) and no concerts. FYI

This pic is from sturgis '010 when I stayed at Lamphere. It's a great spot in my opinion. Walking distance to the Full Throttle, I really liked that. Other campgrounds have busses and shuttles that run on a fixed schedule. I'd rather come and go on my schedule.

They have the standard ammenities, hot showers, 3 meals/day, friendly staff. I'll stay there again next time I do sturgis.
