Yes, it’s desert camping but there are so many fun things to do here.  There’s a 3 mile hike to a wonderful spring, visiting the badlands, biking into town for a weekend morning farmers market and taking a Ranger’s flower desert hike.  We also enjoyed hiking to the top of the hill in the early morning.   We lucked out and got a great campsite that had a beautiful rock wall and covering with a fireplace.  So cool.  Definitely best to camp here in the spring or fall.  Would be really hot, in the 100’s, in the summer. Best time to camp is in the spring when all the flowers are in bloom.
