My boyfriend decided to take a job as security for the rally. He told me that they don't care about their workers because he got scolded for wanting to grab something to drink. He's working in 80-90 degree weather and walks around the campground for 12 HOURS a day. Plus even if they get an hour meal break, he got a chicken sandwich that was still PINK in the middle. Never coming here EVER after hearing the stories my boyfriend told me. read more

BEWARE!!! I paid $922.20 for a RV spot in Oct. 2016 for 2017 rally. In March we found out that we had a grandbaby coming (expected during the rally). I followed ALL of Glenco's rules for a refund less 25% (about $652.00) and sent everything registered mail. They received my refund request on 3/17/17. I have been calling every week since and STILL NO REFUND!! This place is a rip off!! I am filing small claims today in my state of California. I have also disputed the charge on my credit card as fraud. THIEFS!!! read more

The best thing about this campground is the RV area and tent camping area. Some of them have grass and trees. Do not under any circumstance rent a cabin. They are propped up on bricks sitting in a dirt lot. There is not even an outdoor spigot for use. We paid $1800 for a semi-wet cabin. There is no where to hang your clothes or jackets not even a hook on the wall. There is not even a mirror in the bathroom. Just a toilet and toilet paper on the floor. The walls are just unfinished wood it's basically a tough shed. The pavilion has bands playing every night. It is a lot of fun. The staff is very friendly here as well. The showers were OK, the women's never had hot water but the co-ed shower did. All of the women who work here are awesome fun and friendly. With some cheap improvements this place could be a five star. read more

We had to pay nearly 800bucks for us to tent camp here. Way over priced. Then there is only dirty yucky Porta pots for toilets. No bathrooms for toilets! Totally disgusting! Then my husband's wrist band fell off on the interstates and the bitches at the front desk said he had to buy another wristband for another $350! They were rude and would not help. read more

BEWARE -- These people will RIP YOU OFF. After making reservations for rv camp spot for which we received no confirmation they informed us that we were required to addionally purchase wrist bands for an additional $600 to use our camp spot and could not cancel reservation of camp spot for full amount, even though we were within the required window. read more

Where to start??!! stayed last year, was ok, slow for the rally 74th (everyone waited for 75th.) but had decent concerts and entertainment, vendors etc... Tried to reserve a spot for 75th but they wouldn't take a reservations at that time, by time they did they doubled the price. Now less amenities, and No decent entertainment or concerts. No good vendors. The only thing this place has going for it is the nightly parade of drunks, nudes, pervs. It's filthy here with the constant dust and employees racing down the Dirt roads at top speed on 4 wheelers kicking up more dust. Tent areas smell of shit and urine, not near enough port o pottys. Everyday the power goes off. no water pressure. employees are all rude as hell. it is obvious these owners are not interested in a good experience, its just about raking in as much cash as possible, as quick as possible. I will never stay here again. (mind u 3rd time). there are way too many other nice campgrounds to stay in this dump. Don't be fooled by the reviewers who loved the parade, it's highly overrated (for the normal person.) And the new, much much higher prices are ridiculous!!! read more

See all

BEWARE! my husband was involved in an accident two days before he was to leave for Sturgis. We requested a refund or transfer to the following year. It took them almost a year to finally deny the request. Even after "proper documentation" was sent in to "The Management" I will NEVER use this campground again. read more

This place is known for the partyin! Only place near the town you want to go with shade trees on a first come fist serve basis. The Coach hookup is pricy but less than $200 per person to camp for the two weeks is easily worth it. Plenty of entertainment scheduled in the pavilion or on TA if you prefer. At the south end you will find a 1/4 mile strip for some high speed action. Centrally located showers and many satellite bathrooms cover the grounds. For $200 more you can have your own personal Port-o-potty delivered to your site. Ice and Beer girls in carts serve the grounds. Tents and cabins available to rent as well. They allow your coach to be washed. Incredible melting pot of wonderful people from all over the world makes this place a 5 Star Campresort. Not good for Kids!! read more

This will be our 5th year staying at Glencoe Campground and we have always been super happy! Clean campground, nice spot for tents and full hook up available. Love the Pavilion and the entertainment and nite life. Never disappoints! read more

Beware! "Semi Wet" cabin means just a toilet. Can't find running water anywhere. There's a spigot outside, but who knows when that ever worked. It's $27 for someone to come in and see you. It's basically a storage shed with a toilet in it. Not well described. read more

They offered us an administrative position and housekeeping/cashier position. This was below the pay grade we are accustomed to, but they gave us free camping on their grounds. We had initially thought that even though they had only offered us $10 per hour, it would balance out with the cost of living. Although there is a caveat to this, they don't pay their staff and the conditions we lived in were that of a homeless person. We were told we would have water and use of a hot shower house while on property. However, we had no water for the first 2 weeks of our employment. We were bathing with water we toted into our campsite by gallon jugs. We could also go into town and pay $5 each to shower at the local rec center. After a few weeks we finally relocated on the grounds and had water, but still no shower. We were showering under a cold house exposed to the elements and people. Once they finally opened the shower houses, they were almost inhabitable, but we were desperate for a shower. The shower houses smell of mildew, are inundated with mosquitos, flies, tics and even frogs. In the afternoon after my wife spent the day cleaning rodent droppings, she was desperate to use the shower house. It was barely tolerable as the temperature was so hot you sweat instantly after you were done. But she was just happy she cleaned the feces off her body. If you were lucky enough to be a manager, they allowed you to stay in one of their employee trailers. The trailers were riddled with mold and had a distinct urine smell. The premier park model trailers they rent to their guests are previously used FEMA trailers. These trailers should only be relocated 3 times and the government sells them off when they no longer find them suitable for people to live in. Glencoe bought these trailers and rents them to guests. They charge their guests with bracelets over $3k to stay for one week. Now, on to the real issue at hand... they don't pay their staff their full wages. They pay bi-weekly. We had noticed in our first check it seemed a little off. We were then told by fellow coworkers that we must make sure we are clocked in and out at exact times or they round to the nearest 15 minutes in their favor. So, if you clock-in at 8:01, you get paid from 8:15 on. If you clock-out at 4:59, you stopped getting paid at 4:45. Now, I may not have been excited about this unethical practice, but I was willing to play by their rules. The next pay period we both noticed our check was short 2-3 hours. We both realized by the time were told of their rule, we had already missed a minute here or a minute there. We were a bit defeated, but we put our tail between our legs and put up with it. Then on our last pay period we noticed both our paychecks were both distinctly short by 5 hours even though we worked in different departments, different hours and monitored our clocking times closely, even taking pictures of our time cards. This is the day we quit. On this day we were told they do not pay their employees at the time the clock-in. We had thought we were following their rules, but apparently, we missed one. If you clock-in at 8, they pay you at 8:15. If you clock out perfectly at 5, they pay you until 4:45. The explanation given to us was, "the time is adjusted for walking to and from the time clock." So, when I was using the clock on the wall in the office that read 6 and made to the time clock at 6, I was paid until 5:45. Their justification was, I was not working. The time clock was only a matter of feet from where I worked. So, in this case if they saw 6 on my time card, they said well it took you 5 minutes to walk 30 feet and therefor it was really 5:55 when you stopped working. Now, because it is 5:55, you fall into the 15-minute rule and it was 5:45. Every week they dock their employees 2. 5 hours (30 minutes every day),5 hours every pay period. They pay (for the most part) every employee $10 per hour. At the time we left they had roughly 120 employees. They were skimming $6,000 every pay period from their employees. Not only is this illegal, it is unethical. They pray on the desperate and misfortunate. They know they employees are not catching this. However, this time they hired people looking for a new experience, not desperation. They have had many complaints made about them with the labor board. They also require the employees to sign a "mini contract". This contract states that if an employee quits or fails to show up during their contracted period, they will deduct the cost of their bracelet for admission to their "resort" and the cost of camping. While we did not get one of their hook-up sites.UPDATE: As of August 12, 2019, they are not going to pay us. They said it was not the cost of the bracelets, however the cost of camping. They charged us over $500 to camp in an un-mowed field with no bathrooms and no water. This morning, along with 8 other employees we are going to the labor board. read more

Avoid... we went for bike week. Now the noise and the partying were over the top and to be expected. The STENCH from the bathrooms, the toilets all over flowing, the shower in the dismal shape it is in, leads to this poor rating. Not to mention the exuberant cost... read more

I put a down payment for a cabin over the phone while I was still on the wait list for an RV site. With no mention of 'no refunds' from the staff, it ended up that my friends could not make the trip and they refused any part of my $1100 deposit. We usually come with 25-30 people. We will all be going back to the trusty Buffalo Chip. Sad. read more
