Wondering what makes Hill City / Needles Highway KOA the perfect base camp for the whole family?
As pet owners ourselves, we know how much it matters to find a place that genuinely welcomes your four-legged family member and makes it easy to bring them on your camping adventure. Camping memories are made over quality time with the whole family, and that includes pets!
At Hill City Needles Highway KOA, we've made sure your pet can enjoy the trip just as much as you do with our luxury amenities.
The campground is surrounded by wide open grassy areas that are perfect for a peaceful morning or evening walk. There's plenty of room for pets to explore on leash without disturbing your camping neighbors, and the scenery makes every stroll feel like an adventure.
Keeping the grounds clean and enjoyable for all guests is easy, too, with discreet pet waste stations conveniently placed throughout the park.
For those moments when your pup needs to burn off a little extra energy, our KOA Paw Pen offers the perfect place for a romp. It's a designated leash-free area with lush grass, benches for you to sit and supervise, and plenty of opportunity for some good old-fashioned play with fellow furry campers.
And after a long day hiking, exploring, and taking in everything the Black Hills has to offer, our pet wash station means you can send your adventure buddy off clean and ready for campfire cuddles. We think of it as the finishing touch to a great day outside together.
Whether you travel with pets or not, these amenities are designed to make the experience better for everyone. Because taking care of our campers has always meant taking care of the whole family — pets included.
Happy Camping!
