Amazing city park

This is the second time staying in this little city park. Plenty of room for all size rigs along with tents. There is a ball field a playground a small pond with a cable bridge that goes across it. It's in the middle of corn country so there are trains but we do not hear them at night. Electric and water on site dump station when you depart at the entrance. Big grassy level sites.

Basic but enough

Nice enough for tent camping. There’s an area with sprinklers though, avoid that. It’s a nice, quiet, safe area, and there’s a pool nearby if you’re there around the time it’s open. There’s a bathroom and that was enough for us

I thought I grew up in a small town...

The town is so small, the gas pumps still remind me of a rotary phone. Not much to write home about for this one-nighter. (Notice there's no pics) Felt a bit awkward pitching a tent here, although there were others doing the same and even car camping, and there were signs allowing it. I wouldn't recommend settling in at this one, let alone starting a fire. It's nice, though. Access to a bathroom with running water was nice, but I wouldn't drink from the sink, and the door wouldn't latch. Theres a small rope bridge over a portion of pond, and a covered area with tables, although I assume the latter is more for large get-togethers. Theres a small shop down the road that opens at a decent time and has coffee, as well as the afore-mentioned gas station. (gas was about the only thing they sold) Not too far off the beaten path, and Sioux Falls is a very short jaunt down the road.
