My wife and I hiked around Sylvan Lake in Custer State Park. There is a $25 fee for automobiles, but it is good for 7 days. The lake is incredibly beautiful, on par with Lake Tahoe only much smaller. Overall the hike is easy and the trail is easy to follow, but there is one, short rocky section that you have to overcome that could be difficult if you are not in the best shape.
