Badlands / White River KOA
Reviewed Jul. 28, 2021

My first KOA. It was Okay.

Pros: The location is perfect for visiting the Badlands! We really liked that there was lots of trees, even though our site didn't have a big one. The campground was large with lots of amenities and activities. They had a huge variety of different style campsites, cabins and teepees!

Cons: This place was PACKED! I get it, its right outside of a National Park, it's summertime and families are on vacation. I just never understand why campsites are right on top of each other! I also don't like that I can't pick my own site. When we showed up, we were escorted to the site we were assigned. Our site backed up to the mini golf course and our campsite shared a power box with our neighbors. The problem was that the power box was on the wrong site of the camper and it was at the front of the campsite instead of the back. We had to reposition the camper so that we could stretch the cord to reach the power box. Also, the fire pit and table was on the wrong site. I sucked it up and just felt grateful that we were vacationing in the Badlands!
