    Badlands / White River KOA

    Middle of Badlands

    Nice campground with many amenities. We stayed in a camper cabin with air conditioning knowing it would be warm when we were there. They serve breakfast and dinner which were both very good! The staff were all awesome!!! The biggest problem is the campground is situated between 2 rivers so the mosquitoes were unbearable. We cut our stay a day short because we couldn’t even sit outside and enjoy a fire after a long day of hiking without being eaten alive. I’m sure this is a much better experience when the mosquitoes aren’t as bad!

    Badlands / White River KOA

    An awesome stay.

    We slept here for four nights when we were driving through the Badlands and travelling west to Crazy Horse. Weirdly enough, in the office we met someone from a town over from us in Pennsylvania. Super weird but friendly group! The KOA was good. One night was so windy that I thought our tent was going to fly away with us In It. You could hear coyotes and other animals out in the hills and the river nearby. it was very peaceful. I do wish they had a different spot for tent campers and vehicle campers because we didn’t have electrical capacity because we were surrounded by RVs. It would have been nice to charge our phones and my Canon battery since the Badlands are so beautiful. What did rock was how close we were to one of two restaurants in Interior. they had great coffee and good breakfast! we went every morning.

    Nice place to stay for Rockhounds

    This is a great location for agate hunters to stay. It's near some descent agate beds and right next to the Badlands for a day trip. The staff is pleasant and always maintaining the campground. A very clean and quiet stay. Would recommend.

    Badlands / White River KOA

    Not Our favorite

    It wasn’t too bad but our fire pit was basically a hole in the ground, the showers were kind of janky, the food was insanely expensive, and the firewood was expensive and hard to start.

    Great location for the Badlands!

    This was our second time staying at the Badlands/White River KOA. It’s a nice campground but our timing was bad for heat, biting flies and mosquitos. The campground fogged for bugs at night. Still, electricity, clean bathrooms, and an excellent location for getting to the Badlands National Park quickly.

    Location, Location!

    Talk about the name fitting the spot. Located right next to the Badlands Park. The scenery is out of this world! The KOA is clean and well kept. Don’t plan to have a lengthy cell call. The staff is great and the store is stocked!

    Badlands / White River KOA

    A small community

    This campsite is probably one of the most luxurious we’ve stayed at. It was our first KOA. It is conveniently located right off the scenic badlands loop. Restrooms and showers were very clean. The staff was friendly and helpful. Our biggest complaint would be that the mosquitoes were TERRIBLE. But the campsite is located right next to water, so that was to be expected. What was unexpected was the host fogging the whole campsite (he warned us first so we could wait for a few minutes in our car) which helped tremendously! The site had wifi and a little convenience store which offered a few snacks and drinks. They have a pool (not yet open during our stay) and activities for children. When we left the campsite headed for the black hills, we saw lots of wildlife. Overall we would definitely stay again!

    Badlands / White River KOA

    July 2018: Must visit

    Staff is very organized, just follow directions and they’ll get you all set up. Lots of trees and next to White River. Lots of sites, pool is very slippery so hold on. Close to the Badlands and great sunsets. Definitely coming back for a longer stay.
