grasslands boondocking

Dirt roads wind through open grassland near Theodore Roosevelt National Park, where this dispersed area provides 13 marked sites along a single drive-in road with a turnaround at the end. Sites are spaced out across open terrain with no tree cover, meaning neighboring campers remain visible from most spots. A cell tower sits near the camping area and has been noted to emit a high-pitched noise. Arrive early, as sites tend to fill by evening. Campers exploring campgrounds near Medora will find this one among the more accessible dispersed options in the area.

Grassland

The sites are marked. There's 13 sites. Some can fit more than one camper. Get there early they seam to show up late and leave early. There is a turnaround at the end of the road. We camped next to a cellphone tower that made a high pitch noise.. it was our 1st dispersed camping trip, hopefully this information helps someone

Stunning views

Does are very well spaced out. This is dispersed camping so no real services, but plenty of wonderful nature. Right next to the Theodore Rosevelt National library and National park. Last mile is unpaved but the road is not bad. Highly recommended.

Dispersed camping near TRNP

Follow the dirt road, lots of spots to pull off and camp for the night. A couple cars, vans, and tents were there when I was! Spots are spaced out well, but no coverage, so you can see all your fellow campers! Great views. There was a fire ring at my spot and no trash!!
