Where the Missouri River forms Lake Sakakawea, American Legion Park sits within the Sakakawea Recreation Area near Riverdale. This established campground features covered picnic tables and well-spaced sites, though access can be restricted by a locked gate. The park prohibits pets and focuses on fishing as its primary activity.
One reviewer noted the water level was particularly low during their visit, affecting lake access. Sites appear designed for those seeking campgrounds near Sakakawea Recreation Area with direct water proximity. Check gate access before arrival, as some visitors have camped outside the entrance when locked.
