Best RV Parks & Resorts near Wall, SD

RV parks near Wall provide easy access to the Badlands National Park and surrounding attractions. Sleepy Hollow Campground offers pull-through full hookup sites with water, sewer, and electric connections for RVs. The campground operates from May 1 to October 15, accommodating big rigs with level gravel pads. Wall Drug RV Parking provides basic overnight parking for motorhomes without hookups but allows pets. At Badlands Interior Campground, located just outside the national park entrance, RV travelers find full hookup sites with 30/50-amp service. The 24 Express RV Campground in Wasta offers basic electric hookups with a dump station for $20 per night, making it one of the more economical options. "All pull through sites. Not a lot of room between sites, but adequate. Restrooms are a bit far from the sites but very clean and tiled."

During peak summer season, RV parks in the area frequently reach capacity, particularly those closest to Badlands National Park entrances. Most campgrounds provide dump stations, though not all sites offer full hookups. Highway noise can be significant at facilities situated along major routes, especially at Heartland RV Park where the proximity to the four-lane highway creates "unreal" noise levels according to camper feedback. Cell service varies throughout the region, with stronger signals in Wall and weaker coverage in more remote locations. Pet-friendly policies are common across most RV parks, with some offering dedicated dog exercise areas. Winter camping options are limited, as many facilities close after mid-October. Most RV sites in the area feature gravel pads rather than concrete, and some travelers note that leveling can be challenging at certain locations. Propane refill service is available at select parks.

    Heartland RV Park And Cabins

    Nice Place

    Long term stay. Great rates. All staff very courteous. All facilities clean and well maintained. Level gravel pull through sites of varying sizes. Each site has grass area except on the new end. It is very close to the highway, so there is a lot of road noise. Other than that our stay here has been excellent. Good cell reception. Standard campground wifi, but good reception. Haven't used cable. Nice enclosed dog exercise area. Playground for kiddies. It is off season, so pool, tennis court and some other facilities closed right now. We will be leaving the end of November, but after having been at several campgrounds over the past 2 years, this will be our go to place in the Rapid City area from now on.

    Badlands Hotel & Campground

    Perfect proximity

    Perfect location for visiting Badlands National Park. Jussstttt outside the park entrance and the Ben Reifel visitor center. Could not ask for a better location. The campground is a no frills, perfectly adequate base for exploring the area. 30 amp (some sites have 50) and water with a dump station. The staff is super friendly and there is a small store and cafe. Each site has a picnic table and fire ring. Sites are gravel and pretty level. Can’t beat it for $38/night! We had a spot at cedar pass for one night and extended here because it wasn’t worth moving (see pic of how close they are to one another) and CP doesn’t have water hookups.

    The views are spectacular from the campground. Great spot for sunrises, sunsets and stargazing.

    Cedar Pass Campground — Badlands National Park

    View and Location Make this a Gem

    We stayed at the Cedar Pass Campground in Badlands National Park the first weekend in March 2016. The weather was unseasonably warm, and the tourists were few. Most of this campground is closed during the "off-season", so we pulled our RV into a pull-through (really, a shoulder) site in the group camp area. During our stay there was only one other person camping, and he camped with a tent. There are pit toilets there, and this time of year they were fairly clean and well-maintained. The sites in the group area are spread apart well. Each area has a covered picnic table. There are no fire pits or grills here, as the fire danger remains high most of the year. Plan to bring a gas or charcoal grill of your own for cooking if you don't use an RV. On occasion we were able to pick up the Wi-Fi from the Cedar Pass Lodge, which is located nearby, but don't plan on campsite internet. This is a rustic campground. That said, water is available at the entrance, as well as a dump station, In addition, electric hook-ups and flush toilets are available in the summer season. This is one of only two campgrounds in this national park. and the other, Sage Creek Campground, is on the far west end of the park, remote, and very rustic (and also FREE). This campground is located within walking distance of the Ben Reifel Visitor Center. Reservations open in March for the summer season, and we recommend making them, as this campground is almost always full in season. Or, visit like we did, in the off-season, which can be much more temperate for weather.

    Hart Ranch RV Resort

    Great RPI Resort campground

    If you have an RPI membership, this place is a no-brainer. It’s a huge and well maintained RV resort with tons of family friendly amenities. Onsite restaurant and convenience store with gas station. Large pool with hot tubs. Tennis, basketball, pickleball, and shuffleboard courts. Mini golf and an activity center that will loan you a variety of sports gear and well as rent bikes and golf carts. A massive dog park. Our kids also attended a 2 day horse camp onsite which was very fun for them and very reasonably priced. The list of activities is endless. Tons of kids biking around and playing, so easy for kids to make friends. They also have cabin rentals and a few tent sites. There’s a weekly rodeo held onsite during peak season. It’s 15 minutes from Rapid City and close to the Black Hills. If you are looking for a base camp to explore this area, Hart Ranch is a great choice.

    Cedar Pass Campground — Badlands National Park

    Cedar Pass Campground, SD

    Located within Badlands National Park, this campground couldn’t be more conveniently located to nearby hiking trails and all the Badlands has to offer. There is a visitors center with a small store in walking distance. Our site was essentially along a road, so privacy is limited, but you get your own awning and picnic table. The bathrooms weren’t heated and it was about 5 degrees which made our showers uncomfortable. The showers require quarters, but there is a no change machine. Use the vending machine to make change instead.

    Tent camping is allowed all year, but most guests were staying in RV’s.

    Sleepy Hollow Campground

    Right in Wall Drug

    Awesome pull through full hookup sites. Small shop in office. Laundry and showers. Clean bathrooms. Friendly staff. Two minute walk to Wall Drug which also hosts a grocery store, gas station and Ace Hardware. Fenced in dog park was a major bonus.

    Badlands Hotel & Campground

    Much better than the nearby national park campground

    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.

    Badlands Hotel & Campground

    Nice place on way to YNP August 2023

    This park is clean, and just outside of Badlands National Park.  The pool was great per our Grand-kids.  Liked swimming and seeing Badlands at the same time. 

    The only problem the sites are short, but big rigs still parked here and intrude onto the road a bit.  I had to back out of my pull through site as the rig across from me had his motorcycle parked in front and was partially on the road. But I don't blame the park for this but the camper.

Guide to Wall

Camping near Wall, South Dakota puts visitors within a short drive of the dramatic formations of Badlands National Park at an elevation of approximately 2,825 feet. Summer temperatures often exceed 100°F while winter lows can drop below 0°F, creating a challenging camping environment with limited shade at most RV sites. Most campgrounds in the region operate seasonally from May through October due to harsh winter conditions.

What to do

Explore downtown Wall: The RV parking at Wall Drug RV Parking puts you within walking distance of Wall's attractions. "Small lot next to residential homes. Would not run a generator. Busy all day," notes John R. The location compensates for the basic conditions, as William S. explains: "While the three huge lots have no amenities whatsoever, they are large enough for any RV, and of course you've got the entire town right there."

Visit the military museum: When staying at 24 Express RV Campground in Wasta, check out the small military museum on-site. Jessica H. says, "There is also a military museum on-site with super cheap admission." This lesser-known attraction provides an educational stop between Badlands explorations.

Hike nature trails: Badlands Hotel & Campground offers maintained hiking paths near their property. Bethany D. recommends: "Take the time to walk in the hiking area. Hidden pond - no swimming." The trails provide opportunities to hear local wildlife, as Ann W. reports: "Slept with windows open and listened to coyote."

What campers like

Convenient access to Badlands: Badlands Hotel & Campground provides an ideal base for park exploration. "Great entry point to Badlands NP," confirms Tomasz S. Its location just outside the park entrance allows for early morning adventures: "The convenience of this campground can't be beat as it's literally minutes from the entrance to badlands. We woke up early and drove in to see sunrise," shares Jonah S.

On-site dining options: Several campgrounds offer food service, saving travel time for meals. At Heartland RV Park And Cabins, Bonnie F. enjoyed the "on site restaurant for breakfast, lunch and dinner with live music each night." This amenity proves valuable after long days of sightseeing.

Clean facilities: Campers consistently mention facility cleanliness as a highlight. At Sleepy Hollow Campground, Ryu M. confirms: "the bathroom/shower was indeed super clean like everyone says!" Similarly, at Heartland RV Park, Laura F. appreciated "pool, hot tub, showers and restrooms" that were well-maintained.

What you should know

Limited shade available: Most campgrounds near Wall feature exposed sites with minimal natural shade. At Sleepy Hollow Campground, Deb H. noted sites were "Good but little shade." Similarly, Southern Hills campers experience "No shade, Rocky level sites, looks like newish landscaping with small grass areas and short trees."

Site spacing varies significantly: Campground density differs across the region. Vincent B. describes Rapid City RV Park as having "sites are graded but location is on a hill making getting around a pain." At Badlands Hotel & Campground, Michelle F. found "camp sites lacked shade and were closer than we would have liked."

Budget-friendly options exist: Unlike premium-priced RV sites near Wall, South Dakota, more economical options can be found. Joe C. reports that 24 Express RV Campground offers "8 spot self service campground with long pull through spots for $20 per night. Only electric at the site but the $30 includes filling your tanks and dump station at the front of the camp ground."

Tips for camping with families

Pool access during hot months: Rapid City RV Park & Campground offers welcome relief from summer heat. Cassandra I. recommends: "A pool and playground for the kids to relax when the vacationing takes a toll and you need a day off." The pool provides essential cooling when temperatures regularly exceed 90°F in July and August.

Enclosed play areas: Several campgrounds feature designated children's spaces. Paul at Heartland RV Park notes the property has a "Nice enclosed dog exercise area. Playground for kiddies." These separate areas allow children to play safely away from RV traffic.

Family-friendly activities: On-site entertainment can keep children engaged after sightseeing. Derek & Kristen A. found Heartland RV Park "provides a good culture for families and retirees alike!" with amenities like a "(small) pool to keep cool" and activities scheduled throughout the day.

Tips from RVers

Best times for RV travel: Visiting RV sites near Wall, South Dakota outside peak season improves experience. Paul recommends Heartland RV Park during shoulder season: "It is off season, so pool, tennis court and some other facilities closed right now. We will be leaving the end of November, but after having been at several campgrounds over the past 2 years, this will be our go to place in the Rapid City area from now on."

Overnight convenience: Love's RV Stop-Box Elder 602 offers secure overnight parking with amenities. Maggie C. says, "This is a nice campground for one night. I was leery of booking it as I thought it would be like a truck stop. It is completely separate from the Loves gas station. You need a gate code to get in that you receive via text the day before." The campground provides security features not found at standard parking areas.

Water and dumping options: When conservation is necessary, flexible facilities help. Joe C. found at 24 Express RV Campground: "$5 to fill with 100 gallons plus dumping and flushing tanks! Just leave the money in the drop box and you're good to go." These services are available even without overnight stays.
