Can't beat the location. Quiet, clean, lots of shade, and did I mention location?
This is were we stay as well, not sure you can call it quiet at night as they have a local band every night playing?

I have stayed at Days End a few times in the past. It wasn't too loud, and conveniently close to town. Seemed priced slightly higher priced than others in the area. There is interstate road noise, so we also wore ear plugs at night.

I have stayed at the City of Spearfish campground and it was a good stay. Clean shower house and restrooms, shaded with a stream running through.
