$25 / night
"Beautiful little campground with electric n water hook ups Great setting in park near river and towns Rec fields. Fun local bar, Post Office and coffee shop are short walk. Lots of walking paths."

"Location is right on interstate and easy to find. Not for nature lovers."
GuideOverpriced, no water hookup at electric site and do dump station. Friendly staff but probably wouldn’t stay again
TravelerNice, clean and friendly operators

RangerAlthough this is not a large campground it is very well maintained and the staff are super friendly. Please see pictures and video for reference.
GuideA parking lot style campground with nice green areas for pets. Level sites, full hookups. If you are looking for a convenient spot by Sioux Falls, this one fits the bill. Book online as staff is not in the office (or at least were not when we arrived).
ScoutWe made a reservation using the phone number provided. On short notice, we were charged 80+ dollars for two nights after requesting a tent site without electricity. 0n arrival, we were charged 30 dollars for entrance passes to put on the car. The trains ran close by, and the flies were terrible.
RangerThis campground was not far off I90 and was easy to find and navigate. Gravel sites in the pull through. Water and electric with a dump station. Lots of grass and places to walk the dog. Bath house was clean and close by. There is a small play area and also a pool with a lifeguard. It does cost extra but I’m sure it’s affordable.
The camp host were so very nice and friendly. We had a small problem when we were getting ready to leave. And he was there ready to help and offer any assistance. And she called a place nearby to check on hours and service.
We ate the nice restaurant in town…My Place… and it was very good!
Would definitely return and recommend!
TravelerWe come here often. The showers are great, the walking trail is great, and the spots are nice and spread out. Overall a great park!
LegendSmall quiet campground surrounded by farmland. Easy pull through sites for RV. Sites a little close together but fine for our needs. Reservation online was easy. Only draw back was early check out at 1000. Clean campground. This was our overnight spot headed out west to Badlands/Black Hills, about 4-5 hours away.
