I did one of my major Road trips in 2018 and attended the BHCC met some Great folks and stayed in the campground. I don't know how thing's are set up now.
I went in 22 and will be back this year..
I stayed at the campground. It's a nice place with clean showers.
Gone 3 times great event people are friendly more casual and less structured then a lot of the events always had a blast. Beautiful country up there. Campground is good with a store and fuel close. Always seem to have a least 1 or 2 nights with pretty big storms.

Thanks for all the responses. Does anyone know if the cabins have bathroom/shower facilities or are they just basically rooms?
Has anyone done the overnight trip with Walt? I was planning on sleeping in the back of my truck.

Just following up to write a quick review in case anyone finds this thread. I attended this year's Black Hills Cruiser Classic and had a great time. The people were very nice. Quite a lot of the people had their whole families there. As mentioned above, it is more laid back than some other events. I stayed in Deadwood and regretted not staying at the campground.. The campground was very nice, with clean facilities, and a great swimming lake. There was good gas station/grocery store for provisions right next door. I did the beginner trails which, truth be told, are probably more akin to other events I have been to moderate trails. I came home with a decent amount of pin striping and used both my skid plates and rock sliders. I think the blackhills are just rougher terrain naturally than some other areas of the country so the entry level trails are just tougher. They were all listed as green in Onyx. All in all a good event. I would recommend it for anyone except absolute beginners or people looking to keep their vehicles factory pristine.

Edit - the cabins looked nice. I should have stayed in one.

I was there with my family in tow.
The Black Hills are definitely a rough area when it comes to wheeling. There’s a reason a lot of the locals trucks resemble raisins
We had a blast. I was running some of the harder trails. Kong and Hal Jons being 2 of them. I ran an easy trail with the wife in her truck Friday but it took longer to get there then it did to run the trail.
My buddy Ben from Saskatchewan got the carnage award. He broke his front driveshaft on the long spline. He managed to weld it back together and it held up perfectly fine the rest of the weekend.
