This campground is mainly used by hunters in the fall. Sites are mostly for small RV’s, trailers, or tents. The park has a lot of mature trees which causes problems with overhanging limbs in the road. One side of the park has younger trees and it is easier for larger rigs to maneuver and there is more of an open feeling. Pads are fairly level. Bathrooms and even the pit toilets are very clean and did not smell, even had hand sanitizer.
Site was well maintained. There are several water sites for great views. There are hiking trails in the park. Camp is set amid the rolling hills showcasing the beautiful crops and ranches of SD.

GuideThe full name of this place is Fischers Lilly Park, operated by the city of Fort Pierre. To correct the previous review, these sites are water/electric (20/30/50A) only, although there is a free dump station on site. These sites are right on the river, and contrary to the previous reviewer we found some of them near the entrance to be exceedingly spacious, including ours #12. There are 12 sites total, and ours was immaculate. Cell signal on Verizon was a solid 3 bars.
The location right on the banks of the Missouri River can't be beat, and it's the perfect location for exploring all that the Pierre area has to offer: the state capitol complex, the museums, even walleye fishing in the river or nearby Lake Oahe. We spent Memorial Day weekend here and loved it -- my wife was wishing that we could stay longer. Even on the holiday weekend the campground was wonderfully quiet and serene.
Many thanks to the City of Fort Pierre for making this location available.
GuideThis CG is tucked away on the north shore of Lake Sharpe, near the Big Bend dam. Most sites have a view of the lake. Most are back-in, with a couple of pull through. Unfortunately, the pull through have the driver's side facing the lake unless you turn around and go against the one way sign. We did this because we had the entire CG to ourselves. Nobody here but us.
The CG needs some love. Though maintained by the COE, it looks like locals use the area as party central, and don't clear out their trash.
The sites are gravel, and reasonably level. Most have a fire pit and picnic table, though ours had neither. This didn't bother us. Lots of flies, and we had a wasp nest nearby. Though they hung around, they weren't aggressive, and we were able to sit outside and enjoy the gorgeous fall weather.
GuideThis is a wonderfully maintained city campground. This campground is on the Missouri River. The city of Fort Pierre has put a lot of money into its parks. Campgrounds are really clean and beautiful. The Griffin site has electric at the sites but not water, though there is potable water available. On the upside for Griffin, there is a wonderful tornado shelter/rec room/bathroom with showers. the showers are warm enougg. On the other side of the river, and also a Fort Pierre city park campground is Fisher‘s Lily Park campground. The sites at Fisher Lily Park Campground, are little larger, the view is a little nicer, and there’s water and electric at the sites. But the bathrooms are not as convenient and do not have showers. We stayed Fischer Lily Park campground, but went over to Griffin Park to shower. You really can’t go wrong with either campground. The Price during the season which starts 1 May is now $25. Sites are available first come first served. I added pictures of where the showers are (distal end of campground before the marina)
TravelerNice park on the river close to town. 16 side by side back ins all with 30/50A. First come, first serve. No reservations. Two other campers the night we were here. $25 drop box at west end. Showers bathrooms at the east end. Dump station and water at west end. Very clean and quiet.
GuideThis campground sits on a hight overlooking Pierre, the capital, and the Missouri river. Beautiful at night. Campsites are close together with full hookups. Many amenities are offered on site such as horse shoes, Egg grills, mice playground dog walk, showers, laundry, and cable TV in the clubhouse
TravelerThis is a great open camp area around the lake. There is a vaulted toilet, fishing docks, dumpster, picnic tables, and for a $20 per day fee there is shore power. To get the power unlocked do you have to call the city at this number, (605) 869-2263. The state limit is five days. You can get pretty windy here, but there is a good wind block along the row of parking for the camping with power. Great views, quiet spot. Very accessible with big rigs. Little to no shade. Most spots are somewhat level, but if you’re camping outside of the electrical hook up area, there is an angle to the terrain, so be prepared to level as needed.
Fort Pierre, South Dakota, offers a fantastic experience for RV camping enthusiasts, with stunning views and well-maintained parks that cater to various needs.
