    Pierpont City Park

    My first bust. Stunning campground.

    UPDATE; This is now a private club owned campground. No public stays are permitted.

    I was hoping to stay here a couple of nights, but the electrics are all locked up and no one around, no phone numbers to call, no way to get them unlocked. No price info. Outhouse is very, very run down. The rest of the campgrounds is stunningly beautiful. Maybe another day in the future we can stay.

    Really pretty and quiet

    I was lucky enough to get a spot far under the trees. It was quite private and even though it was labor day weekend, it was quiet and peaceful. Good cell service, I was able to work on Friday via my hot spot. The campground is well maintained and the trail had just been mowed. Unfortunately there are stickers and poor tuck found a number of them. We still had fun.

    Camping in the county fairgrounds

    The campsites are integrated into the fairgrounds which is different but nice. Very little shade for most of the sites and the reservation process is a bit difficult to navigate but the sites is nice and quiet. There is a bathroom and an outside shower but way better if you have a full camper. Nice access to town and bike trails and across the street and some trails down by the river.

    Kidder Recreation Area

    It is small and designed for tent campers

    There's a short row of camp spots in the sun for campers. Seems like a good portion of it is full of people who are here all the time. The rest of the campers are in the back of their truck, which i'm not opposed to, but they're in pretty tough shape and very old. I will say this is one of the least safe places. I have felt in North Dakota.

    Silver Lake Rec Area

    Mostly perm campers

    But they are very nice and friendly and I ended up with the best spot ever as it is right on the water and under the only few trees available. There is actually 3 campgrounds and they surround the lake. Some of the nicest tent spots I've seen. Small Frisbee golf course and not much formal hiking but you can boat on this lake and lots of fishing from the shore. Poor cell service but lots of open sky and the sat service is killing it today.

    Milnor City Park

    Small but functional

    We might be back to this campground, assuming we don't have cell service where we're going. Calling a campground is a stretch. It's a few parking spots near a small park right inside the town. They're cute. They're nice summer in the shade. And I think milner's a pretty town.

    Beautiful stay in the grasslands

    Well maintained campground, has water and multiple vault toilets. There’s a loop for horse camping and a loop for non horse camping. Each site has a fire ring and a nice table, most spaces have trees to provide shade. Verizon works okay, not great but I had a bar or two. Can hear trains running by every so often. Only downside was the abundance of biting flies and mosquitoes.

    Great place to overnight

    There are gorgeous sites well spaced and lots of shade. Trails to bike ride around. No motorized vehicles allowed so it's quiet. Road in was good gravel. Picnic tables, fire rings and pit toilets. $10 / night. Great find.

    Fort Sisseton State Park Campground

    Camping in the middle of history

    Small campground. Well maintained. It was fun to explore the historical buildings. A couple of wild turkeys came by in the evening. Only downside is that campsite was fly infested. It was pretty clean so I think the flies came from horse areas.

    Nice, Small Campground

    We stayed here one night in April and it was a nice little place. There is a zoo which is nice for the kids. There is a fire pit and also a grill to use. There is a bathhouse and a shower. It was very easy to back the camper into the spot. There are also cabins available too. There is also a golf course so be sure to bring the clubs!

    Hartford Beach State Park Campground

    Uncrowded and Beautiful

    Vibe: Almost empty on Monday night. Quiet natural lake setting. 

    Cleanliness: Exceptional. 

    Facilities: Updated and well maintained. 

    General spots: Good size, good spacing, ok privacy. Lots of trees 

    Our site: 20. Across from our site was a little trail down to the lake. In the evening we saw tons of fish and an otter. The electric hook up is pretty far from the picnic table/fire ring area. Have a long cord. 

    Noise: Only 4 sites were occupied out of 30 or so. Completely quiet all evening. 

    Cell signal: Good (Verizon)

    Other: Spectacular sunsets and sunrises. Cell phone pictures do not do it justice.

    Lakewood Supper Club

    Great food, beautiful location - but sites are limited!

    What an amazing little gem of a place! A former resort, now home to just 12 full hook up RV sites, a couple of cabins, and an amazing supper club that opens at 5:00 daily. On the shores of Big Stone Lake. A nice beach and a boat landing. There are normally no open sites, we are told, as they are all rented for the season. We got lucky because there was a site available, said Elmer. So we showed up and we’re greeted by the super- friendly residents who helped us into our site. At five we went down for supper- enjoyed a cocktail, a fantastic steak, then another drink while we watched the sun go down. Just perfect. If you can’t camp here, check out the state park - then come over for dinner!

    Great Campgrounds

    Ft Sisseton is A small, quit, friendly park. We have stayed there a number if times. The staff are always helpful. The campsites are clean, well groomed, and spacious. The backrooms and showers are clean. There is a lot of outdoor advantage in the area. It is worth the trip.

    A Working Mans Campground

    We reserved a spot with the idea of exploring the area from a nice quiet grass location.

    We drove in and we were met by the owner who was very nice.

    We then drove to the back where our spot was. At that point we realized the campgrounds was a man camp. Semis, heavy equipment, and discarded appliances were part of the camp area. A van was parted in our spot. The campers were with in feet of each other. No grass or trees once you are passed the office. We did not stop. We just drove out.

    If you are working construction it appears to have amenities. If you are looking for a family setting or quiet I would suggest a different campgrounds.

    Small town park

    4 grass spots with 30 amp electric picnic table and trash cans. Dump station at the pay box but no water. Found a business that let us fill our tanks. Bathroom across from the sites. Quiet park very nicely kept. Laundry mat across the street. Would stay here again.

    County Line Campground

    Good enough overnight

    Stayed here while moving across the country because there wasn’t much else available. It was a nice surprise that it was as good as it is. Well kept up and reasonable prices but man was it tight! Very crowded and the owner was one of those folks who wants to help you back in whether you need help or not. There is a big gas station just out of town near the highway so it’s a convenient place to refuel and recharge for another day.

    Hankinson Hills Campground

    Very quiet, well off the beaten path

    We spent a night there in the fall.  It is well off the main road but the dirt road is passable with any rig.  The sites are varied, well kept and some will fit larger rigs.  It is typical forest service dry camping.  There is a hiking trail that circles this small grassland about 5 or 6 miles long.  

    What is unique about this place is that is an original remnant of the oak/grass prairies that used to cover extensive areas where the forest met the plains.  There is grazing in the grassland but it is very quiet and no light pollution.  Cell service was actually pretty good.

    Great Overnight Stop

    Nice little stop on your travels up or down I29. Located in a cute little town, with a multitude of spots that can accommodate even the largest RV. Full hookups available, even when it's below freezing. The office has propain, ice, and some food supplies available. Bathrooms & laundry. The spots are mostly side by side, with grass patches between though there are bigger campsites available. A gas station with multiple fast food options is located just down the highway. Would definitely stay here again when traveling through.

    A nice gem

    Have spent a great deal of time at this park. Beautiful sunsets, lots of wildlife and nice trails. Fishing is free from the park boundaries with lots of shoreline. Great access to the lake if you have a boat. Only 7 miles into town for forgotten supplies or a specialty coffee. Con, flies can be an issue and the wind has an open shot from the south.
