Little Missouri National Grassland is located in western North Dakota, USA. At 1,033,271 acres (418,150 ha), it is the largest grassland in the country.[1] Enclaved within its borders is Theodore Roosevelt National Park, which is managed by the National Park Service (and therefore not included in the preceding statistics). The Little Missouri National Grassland was once a part of the Custer National Forest, but is now a part of the Dakota Prairie Grasslands, a National Forest unit consisting entirely of National Grasslands. A predominant feature of the grassland is colorful and beautiful badlands and rugged terrain extensively eroded by wind and water. It is a mixed grass prairie, meaning it has both long and short grass. The boundaries of the grasslands on certain maps can be misleading. Within the boundaries of the national grassland are significant portions of state-owned and privately owned land, much of it leased by cattle ranchers for grazing. Overall, in descending order of land area, it is located in parts of McKenzie, Billings, Slope, and Golden Valley counties. White Butte, North Dakota's highest point, is located in the extreme southeast corner of the grassland, south of the town of Amidon. The grassland is administered by the Forest Service as part of the Dakota Prairie Grasslands from offices in Bismarck, North Dakota. There are local ranger district offices in Dickinson and Watford City.

Traveler
This is a bone basic FULL HOOK UP (water, sewer, electric) campground with rock solid smoking fast T-Mobile 5G. It's like somebody decided to put really spacious camp sites in their side yard aside from that. Clean, no problems at all. Minutes from Medora attractions and TRNP for half the price: $25/night.
Legend
This campground has about 1000 spots - and is pretty quiet given how many folks you're right next to! It's pricey, showers look nice and clean, bath house building is pretty new. Nice playground. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Sites are pretty close together, but not on top of each other. Beautiful setting right next to Theodore Roosevelt National Park. Near a neat town with lots of old west themed sites and activities. Most of the town and park are owned by the Medora Foundation. Looks like you can rent a cabin or a Calistoga Wagon to sleep in also. $60/nt for full hook ups.
Guide
We’d been staying in State parks the last few weeks, with deep toilets and showers that require quarters. Here we had flushable toilets, HOT showers with good pressure and free laundry! We also liked having the bar on site to grab snacks, drinks, food etc. Also there was cool stuff to see! There’s a one room schoolhouse exhibit across the road at the fairgrounds. White Butte (tallest point in North Dakota) is a great hike super close. You can also get to Medora for TRNP or Regent for the Enchanted Highway in about an hour. Very centrally located.
Guide
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
GuideWe stayed here for one night on a 3-week road trip, and our boys declared it their favorite campground we stayed at! We stayed in the of the cabins, which had a really cool loft area the boys loved. Being able to walk down to the river and explore was neat. Bathrooms were clean. We had no complaints whatsoever here, and wished we could have stayed longer!
LegendWe did not stay here, but they allowed us to use their dump station for a $5 fee so we had the chance to take a look around. This is a great option if you cannot get a site inside the park or if you want hook ups. They have several different styles of sites from tent sites to full hook ups and cabins. Some sites were in the sun, but lots of sites had shade trees.
RangerTight fit but close to the National Park and downtown Medora.
The town of Medora truly supports the Theodore Roosevelt National Park.
RangerMedora Campground boasts a prime location near Theodore Roosevelt National Park and the charming town of Medora. With spacious sites along the Little Missouri River, it’s a tranquil spot with easy access to hiking, wildlife viewing, and the Medora Musical. Amenities are basic but sufficient, and the views of the surrounding badlands make it a picturesque choice for nature enthusiasts.
A little pricey for our taste, but the hook ups in the August heat were worth it.
TravelerPretty tight, but other than that gorgeous. Very close to town, the river , and the national park. Many things to do in town and enjoy the Medora Musical
RangerClose spots just outside of Medora and Theodore Roosevelt National Park. Some spots are very close, but have stunning views of the buttes behind and the Little Missouri River. Individual showers and a real desert feel.
TravelerWe recently stayed at Medora Campground. It was too early in the season to catch the Musical however we rode our bikes into town, the local bike shop was great, and was able to fix my husband's bike! The Campground itself is on the small side as far as sites go but they are pull-through which was convenient for our 2-night stay. We were on a long trip and were happy to see laundry available on site, everything was in working order. The bathroom was clean and the people we nice. The location is right next to the entry into Theodore Roosevelt National Park and the visitor center. If you like Mountain Biking - Check out the Maah Daah Hey trail the is just outside the town of Medora. I would recommend having someone drop you off at the trailhead.
GuideFun little spot in the middle of the Great Plains of western North Dakota.
Just off Highway 85 at Amidon, ND. Population 25!
Great one nighter or a very quiet longer stay. Come prepared! No groceries except in small store in Bowman 21 miles away.
No trains no trucks!
We had a couple beers and a good pizza in Mo’s Bunker Bar just steps away from our trailer.
Nine average to small size spaces with water, electric, and sewer! $35
A younger couple bought this in 2006 and have done some hard work to renovate a basement into a bar . It is a sight to see and play darts or pool and have pizza or root beer floats!
Nice clean bathrooms and private showers with wonderful hot water. Laundry was available.
We just happened to show up on the first day of the Slope County 101 Annual Fair and rodeo. Got to mix with local people. Corn hole games, FFA auction, exhibits and games!
There was a demonstration of a 100 year old steam power engine and a combine working as kids threw wheat shafts on the conveyor.
White Butte, the high point of ND is very close! A mile or so hike to the top!
ScoutWe enjoyed Medora Campground! The sites were quite small but we spent the majority of our time in town, in the National park, or at the musical. There was construction, to expand the campground, while we were there so that was loud and noisy. Bathrooms and showers were clean.
GuideGreat location! This campground isright next to the Theodore Roosevelt National Park and across the street from The Medora Musical. Restrooms & showers are clean and the have a laundry. Sites are a little tight but there are many trees. There's a camp store and community pool available to campers.
LegendA tidy easy in and out campground right in town and next to the NP. Super easy to walk over to the np or into Thiel for coffee, breakfast, dinner. Feeling adventurous go check out the Medora musical and steak fondue dinner. Totally worth it. There’s a community pool right at the campground too. Bonus!
TravelerThe price for all the amenities provided was excellent! There was plenty of room for our tent and cooking set up!
The access to Theodore Roosevelt National Park is ideal as well as being able to explore the town of Medora!
It was hot during the day but the campground had plenty of shade to provide a cool place to hangout.
TravelerWith mature trees near the Little Missouri River, this campground is quite lovely. Showers and utilities all available and we’ll located. The only drawback is my preference for space. The lots are small. Campers are lined up in rows which, even though efficient, don’t provide space for much activity. But who’s here for activity by the camper? Medora is a place to be explored and both the town and national park provide plenty to do.
GuideClean campground close to TRNP and Medora. The pool was closed when we were there after Memorial Day in near 100 deg heat. Spots are CLOSE together. It looked like some RV awnings were touching the RV next door. They weren't but it looked that closed. The staff was awesome. Access to Little Missouri Scenic River but no one was swimming and we saw a rattlesnack on the little walk to the river.
TravelerThis Location is a GEM right outside the gates of Teddy Roosevelt NP! The town of Medora is a small western town and you can ride the whole town by bike from the campground in under 2 Miles. Tons of things to do and see and the wildlife is Plentiful in the park! The campground has a trail right onto the little Missouri river and leads you right under the huge walls of the NP. The Hospitality at this park was unmatched, and the facilities were also very clean. Sites are a tad tight but no need to be at the site with so much to do around. Definitely will visit again if in the area!
GuideStayed 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.
LegendTried 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!
ScoutGood location, pretty. Sites are small, tight and un-level. Close to Theodore Roosevelt NP. Good cell reception. Good for stop over only. Site 2 gives you room to park and put chairs out, some of the others are so close you can almost touch your neighbor standing in your door!
RangerVery close to neighbors and site 7 is very hard to get level. We had to buy more leveling blocks. We're pro members and couldn't figure out how to get the pro discount. No tables or fire rings. Just hookups.
GuideWe 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.
ScoutFacilities are well maintained with good water and power at sites. Area is beautiful and you can wade in the river right behind the tent area. Only drawback is lack of privacy between tent sites. Would stay here again.
GuideThe best thing about this campground was its location... close to town, close to the South Unit of Theodore Roosevelt National Park and close to the Mefora Musical. The campground was clean but the sites werevery close together. The campground had lots of cottonwood trees so the cotton was blowing all over when we were the in June. It did have full hook-ups, so that was a plus.
GuideWe 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!
