    Medora Campground

    Perfect for Teddy Roosevelt National Park visit

    Nice campground, good roads and pull through spots, wide enough to use picnic tables and have enough room for truck. Ample bathrooms and laundry room was great. ATM and cash change machine in room, dryers are fantastic. Great staff at front desk with late hours. We had emergency truck repair and needed to stay an extra day,,,staff was very helpful and made it work. Lots of sites here, some are shaded…others are full sun. Lots of different options available, RV, tent, cabin, wagon.

    Good recreation for kids, basketball/volleyball/gaga ball and city pool at front of campground $5/person. Medora is a small town, easy to bike or walk. No grocery store, only small convenience store so make sure you stock up if you are staying for a few days.

    National park entrance South is next door and scenic trail drive is about 2 hours round trip (there is construction so one part of road is shut down…no loop…you have to turn around).

    Boots Campground

    Great location with great views

    Stayed here while visiting Theodore Roosevelt National Park. The location is great as the park entrance is just a few miles away, along with the gateway town of Medora. Reservation and check in was all digital which was nice. There is no office on site, but we didn’t need anything. The owner is very responsive to messages. Great views of the surrounding area. WiFi was decent as was Verizon cell service. Full hookups for RV and everything worked great. Only thing that left us wanting a little bit was the spots were a bit close together and there are no picnic tables or fire rings. The price per night was lower than other campgrounds though. Overall great experience and would stay there again.

    Medora Campground

    Close quarters if you need electricity

    Space is pretty tight here. We grabbed two sites, side by side. 305 and 306. We had a 3-person tent and a small pop-up camper. Not much room at all (see photo). There was basically enough room to share a picnic table and that was it. I will say the tent camping non-electric sites were bigger and grassier. But if you need power, you're stuck in a pull-through that offers very little privacy. Also, there is not enough room for both a tent and a vehicle, so we settled on parking the long way across the back and straddled the road.

    The facilities were well maintained though. Check-in was a breeze. The staff were friendly. Super convenient location to everything - national park, musical, steak fry, downtown. All very nice.

    Convenient campground right next to TRNP

    We rolled up late in the day and they had plenty of tent sites available. Beautiful views and a nice path to sit next to the little Missouri! Fire pits are shared.

    Best Choice for the Area

    Tried to stay inside TRNP next door but learned quickly there weren’t any hookups. This place had some harsh reviews on Campendium app however we found it delightful. The biggest woe here is that the sites are extremely tight. Our site was a pull in from one road, and the neighbors sites was a pull in from the parallel road, leaving us to share space - literally two picnic tables next to one another. Other than that though, gorgeous scenery well maintained sidewalks that you can hike or bike right into town. A public dog park at the end of the street. And our section was brand new. The electric poles were new. The sewer hookup at our site seemed a bit big but we have an adapter. Overall would highly recommend if in Medora!

    Medora Campground

    Good Campground

    We stayed in a tent with electricity. The tent site was on the back stretch with the badlands as a backdrop. There was not a fire ring at the campsite but we didn’t feel like we were missing anything. Our site was extremely small wIth no room for our camp chairs. Alao, there was some inconsistency in sizes of the tent area sites. Bathrooms were clean. Showers were alright, they could use some work on the ventilation.

    Not sure what to say or rate

    We pulled in at 830 pm and immediately noticed the few campers that were parked had no lights on. We could barely see where our spot was as There was no check in, you just go right to your spot. I typically like to check in and meet the people who run it to get a good layout and understand the vibe of the campground. We had site 12 I believe and we got a spooky vibe when we pulled up to it. It is literally 5 feet from a cabin that had huge window and a door that lead right to our driver side rv door. It just felt a little weird to have to hook up in the dark with no lights around us except our own headlamps and wonder if someone was inside watching us from their window. The spot was also very visible from the road so that also spooked us that people were driving by seeing us get ready next to a very dark cabin. Hind sight it was probably a fine campsite but I always say trust your instinct so we left. Something just felt slightly off, especially in the dark right next to a very long and dark cabin that anyone could have been in.

    That being said, the ground was also fairly uneven and it is a very basic campground. It seems it was more for cabins and someone just decided to hookups and no picnic tables

    I bet the views are nice and the people staying are probs great too! Again it just felt a little off so we left so I can’t honestly give this a fair rating

    Medora Campground

    Tight and dusty, but close to Teddy Roosevelt

    We stayed 3 nights in a PT FHU for $177. The sites are dusty red dirt (but that's the natural landscape of the area) and a little close together. The staff is very friendly and they have a small store on site. There's a picnic table, but it was very hot outside without shade. There's a great creek within walking distance that you can cool off in and let the dogs run around. The proximity to Teddy Roosevelt NP is the winner to stay!
