Best RV Parks & Resorts near Interior, SD

We stayed at a full hook-up site, our first time with sewage. It was pretty cramped camping. They squeeze you in. The other parts of the campground are spaced a bit more. There is a full service convenience store, pet eun area, mini golf and a beautiful view.

Federal campground Sites are adequately spaced with paved pull out rv parking, mostly, but not all level.

Badlands Interior Campground is located one mile south of Badlands National Park, and includes plenty of clean, level RV and tent sites, as well as teepees, camper cabins, and a motel. The owners were a delight to talk to, which we did every morning, and very knowledgeable about the area.

The RV sites include both electric and full hook-up, which is a step above the sites available inside the national park. There are community bathrooms that are small and feel a bit older, and only two showers are located in each. On a busy summer day, those could feel quite crowded. The playground is small and dated, but the unique merry-go-round (standing version) captivated our sons for a few hours.

The sites are not very shaded, especially the tent sites. This was not a concern for us since we visited in early spring, but a mid-summer day in the 100’s might be a bit unbearable. But in lieu of the trees, visitors get to see awesome views of the Badlands from almost every site! There are picnic tables at every campsite, some have sun overhangs, which would be outstanding to have in the summer. Each site also boasts an above-ground campfire ring, which is small, but a welcome feature as the campgrounds inside the park do not allow open fires (fire dangers here stay high most of the year).

The owners keep the facility in great shape, keeping the grass short to avoid encounters with rattle snakes, and the garbage disposal areas free from larger critters. When we arrived the day before their official 2017 opening, the grounds were in great shape and they appeared ready to roll and welcome travelers at any time.

Campground is not one of my favorites... I enjoy more seclusion, some tree cover, and less of an RV parking lot feel BUT it's totally worth it to deal with these tiny details in order to experience the badlands!  The sites were grassy and level so having a tent wasn't an issue.  The bathrooms were fine and sites were clean so I cannot complain too much :) 

The area surrounding the campgrounds is what brought us here, no the accommodations.  The park is AMAZING! Such a unique park of the country- breathtaking sunsets and unique hikes.  I highly recommend finding a place each night to watch the sun go down!  Lots of wildlife around as well. 

*Wall Drug isn't anything fancy, but it's worth it to check it off your list if you gotta make a trip into town.

We stayed at the Badlands Interior Campground and Motel for three nights while visiting Badlands National Park.  We were supposed to stay in the national park campground, but they had overbooked and we were out of luck, as were most other campers with reservations that day.  Fortunately, the Badlands Interior campground is just two miles down the road from the national park campground. They offer full hookups for the same price as a lessor site at the park campground.  

We found the Badlands Interior Campground to be enjoyable and convenient. We were in our class C while slowly making our way across the country. The campground is reasonably large. We had no problems getting a spot here. Sites are gravel for the RV, very level, and reasonably well maintained. All RV sites are pull through. Hookups are in good condition. You may have to run your water hose under your RV.  Each site has a grassy area with a table and fire pit. The grassy areas were a little narrow, causing your neighbor to be a little close.  Staff was very friendly and helpful. There are tent sites available.

There was a pool that we observed being used daily. There is a meadow with hiking trails at the campground. There are showers, laundry and a campground store.  Breakfast is also available.

The campground is conveniently located just two miles from the national park. It has great views of the national park. There is almost no noise other than your neighbors.

We had 4 bar LTE with Verizon. Our hotspot performed very well. The wifi offered at the campground is the best we have encountered.  My wife was able to play her xbox games in the evening.

We found this to be a great place to stay.  We will stay again when traveling this way.

The campground is strange for RVs and Trailers the sites are all bump outs, not full pull through. Neither of the baths had working blow dryers for hands. The dump station flush his was taped in several spots and had the threaded male end coupler yanked off and laying on the ground making it useless for tank flush. Clearly the concessionaire isn’t doing needed maintenance.

Flies are out of control as the garbage areas are filthy around the dumpsters.

Cut our stay short a day to move in. I wouldn’t camp here again.

A primitive campground without drinking water or electricity. Fires are not allowed. There is is space for RVs and horses. It is a national park so check on pet regulations. 

The upside, Buffalo can wander through your camp. Or pose in the prairie next to the camp. Great hikes into the park.

Oh, all the things they say about being careful around buffalo, they mean it. I saw a couple who walked too close to a buffalo. Lucky for them the startled animal went away but they were in serious danger.

This is a great campground just a mile outside of Badlands National Park. I stayed for a week and really enjoyed it. The campground has full hookups and a 24 hour laundry room. It was always quiet and the folks running it were extremely nice and accommodating.

Pull through RV spots, tent spots, cabins, and a yurt. High quality facilities with a shower house and bathroom. Mini golf, camp store, dog park, and pool available. 10 min drive from the park!

This campground is busy because of its location to the Badlands National Park...so expect people. They offer a lot here...Full hookups with water and cable tv. They do have wifi but with so many people you probably should not count on it. They have cooks who will make you food and it is good. The people who checked us in were great and very helpful with everything!

The location is right outside of the national park, and is a motel / campground. You could get a room, RV or tent site. We reserved a tent site and picked once we arrived. The staff was friendly and they do have a store with ice / wood / etc if needed. They also had a breakfast option.

The tent sites are just on a field of grass. They are right next to one another without any separation so proximity to neighbors is very close. However, the view was great as you could see the badlands.

The bathrooms and showers were rough, and we refrained from using them. Not very well maintained or cleaned often it seems. Also, bugs. Especially at night when the beatles come out.

For RV users, looks like they had full hookups but unsure of the amps. Probably the usual 50.

Overall we wouldn’t mind coming back!

Great people there. Nice level sites. Had a huge thunderstorm hit us and the water drained away within a short time.

When we arrived at the check-in, we were told that our booked site (#93) would not fit our 26 ft RV. We had made reservations over the website months in advance (not seeing any restrictions as far as vehicle size goes). Apparently they had 7 RVs the day before with the same issue. The guy at the check-in offered us a group site as our last resort (as the campground was fully booked otherwise). We were charged an extra $20.00 for this site.

Besides the fact that the group site was right next to the dump station, with all the rigs driving by after dumping, there was not more width to the pull-through area than where our original campsite was. In fact it was very tight with the constant dump site traffic!

The website does obviously not indicate clearly which sites are suitable to them for RVs and which aren't. Looking at the website again after our visit, they probably don't want RVs on sites saying "grass and dirt". Even though I don't really see a difference in what they ended up putting us in. We kind of had the feeling, that they were looking to make some extra money...

Other than that, the campground was ok
