I've been hunting all day trying to find some good examples/tutorials on how to pull data into Sharepoint 2013 from CRM 2011. The best thing I have found so far is a SP2010 example, but with VS2012 and SP2013 it seems like so much has changed, and trying to make that tutorial work isn't going well thus far.

I have no experience with SP; with CRM I have used the CrmSvcUtil.exe in the past to generate a class and use that within a .NET app in order to view/update data in CRM. I tried implementing this into my Visual Web Part, but I need to be able to add connection strings to the config file which it doesn't seem are recognized by the web part. I see that I can add a service reference to the CRM Organization service but I'm not sure if/how I can use that to query data. Any help is appreciated, or if anyone could point me in the direction of some good documentation. Thanks!

You have got couple of options.

(1) Use SharePoint 2013 client API. Consume the client API from your CRM plugin / custom workflow to update the crm data to SharePoint 2013.

(2) Consume SharePoint 2013 webservices from CRM plugin / custom workflow.

I don't think this works in sandbox based solution.
