"We stopped at the Mitchell KOA twice in 2020. It's located very close to the highway (tho no noise). Decent sized pull thru sites with lots of big shade trees. Bathrooms and showers were clean."
"Not really close to much but only a short drive into Mitchell. There’s a small pool and a nice dog park. Many of the sites have large shade trees. Overall a pleasant experience."
"Great location near highway so some traffic noise"
"Very easy to get a sight, close to food and general shopping. Right on the edge of town bit so there's a little traffic noise, but still feels woodsy."
"We had planned to stop in Mitchell and stay at the Walmart on our way to Badlands, but saw Dakota and decided to give it a try. Full hookup sites, swimming pool and a small arcade for the kids."
"I called for a site as we were driving and he said he had availability. We were a late check in but he waited for us and gave us a site right near the entrance which was nice."
"Campers were mostly in RVs, I was in a tent and not surrounded by many others."
"Nice campground right off the highway. Large shade trees and very quiet. Management was very nice and helpful. They have a pool and camp store."
"Even though it’s adjacent to the interstate, we really didn’t hear any highway noise. The park has full hookups with both 30 and 50 amp sites."
"If this camp was any closer to the highway, it would be on the exit ramp. While perhaps not ideal for long stays, it was perfect for us as an overnight stop along the way."
$35 - $40 / night
"Town of Mitchell has shopping and restaurants. Bought local beef to take home with us at Mitchell Meat Locker. Check in at Days Inn was efficient."
$15 / night
"A diner is within walking distance, it’s super quaint with delicious ice cream and fries! This is a great location for an overnight spot."
"Needed a quick night's stay to break up a long drive, and this was the perfect spot. We ended up being the only campers overnight."
"An excellent choice for staying if traveling across South Dakota. The sites are gravel, but are all pull through."
"Clean, friendly, convenient location just off interstate with Dollar General in walking distance. Nancy is great!"
"A great well maintained spot in the middle SD farmland near a peaceful lake.
The long dirt/gravel road surrounding was fun to navigate after a thunderstorm, but not too bad at 35mph."
"Lake was beautiful and boating was common. Saw some watersports, lost of people fishing from boats."
GuideWhat a great thing for the city to offer for travelers coming through!
Flat fully leveled sites - 4 in total with electric hookups and a bathroom near by and a dump station.
Right outside is a big park, playground, pool and volleyball court. Perfect to stop for the night for a very fair price.
ScoutThis was the perfect campsite after driving 13 hours. I reserved in advance and got the spot right on the lake. Gorgeous view. Campground was quiet, nice bathrooms, staff that checked me in was wonderful! Make sure to bring your bug spray! I car camped, so I didn't use any of the hookups.
TravelerWe stayed here while visiting family in the area. For $20 a night it’s well worth the money. Site was level, we had 50amp, and there is a concrete pad with a picnic table. There is a place to dump.
GuideClean, friendly, convenient location just off interstate with Dollar General in walking distance. Nancy is great!
GuideWe needed a place to stay overnight while we were passing through. This area is open, has bathroom and showers, it also has volleyball courts and possibly other recreational activities. It has electric hook up and fire rings. We were the only ones here overnight on a Saturday during Labor Day weekend.
TravelerNice, clean and friendly operators
TravelerNeeded a quick night's stay to break up a long drive, and this was the perfect spot. We ended up being the only campers overnight. Spots are mostly level -we didn't even have to unhook from our hitch(we have a 15' travel trailer on a 2" ball), all we did was throw stabilizers down. Access to city park amenities: kids' playground, pool(which was not open while we were here unfortunately), volleyball court & tennis courts. There is also firewood available as well as fire rings. On-site bathrooms were adequate, and showers were usable but not in the best condition. Overall great stay, especially for the $20 a night.
ScoutGreat spot quite and well kept, totally empty for my stay, rode in on Saturday just for the night but worth it.
