The Best Pierre, SD Camping | South Dakota Campgrounds

We happened upon this while up for a wedding in Pierre. It is a free campground! There are RV and tent sites, a dump station, water fill up, bathrooms, and even a park. The tent sites are right on the river and there is even a beach that you can hang out at. You are right on the Lewis and Clark Trail for riding. 

  

The tent sites are pretty secluded for it being a city park. It was a little noisy at night but it was perfect for waking up in the morning and watching the clouds flow over the river with a cup of coffee in hand.

Easy stop over spot in Pierre

We stopped here late at night after getting stuck trying to get to another free site. We were the only ones there.  The restroom was clean and the river was quite pretty. A great horned owl slept in the tree above our van.
