Operated by the Army Corps of Engineers along Lake Sakakawea, this campground provides full hookups for RVs plus drive-in and boat-in access options. The facility includes showers, drinking water, and a dump station, with campsites available from mid-May through mid-September. Staff operates on-site, though the campground runs on a first-come, first-serve basis without advance reservations.
One reviewer noted multiple playground areas and described the location as accommodating various camping styles, from tent camping to full RV setups. The proximity to Parshall Bay Rec Area provides additional lakeside options. Campers should plan to arrive early during peak weekend periods to secure preferred sites.
