We originally were going to stay in the Badlands national park but the weather turned cold so we decided to switch since fires are not allowed in the National park. Pro: This campsite was close enough to everything of interest. We did get up early and drove 1 hour and 45 minutes to the Badlands for sunrise. Spectacular! We did Mt Rushmore and Crazy Horse monument another day and a third day hiking and checking out the local waterfalls.

The camp sites are very close together ( no privacy) but people were quiet and respectful. There is a lovely creek you can sit by and enjoy. Facilities clean . Management is friendly and laid back. The laid back was a con for us as dogs were allowed to be off leash inspite of the 6 foot leash rule. That was not good for our small dog when a large dog ran over to check out my dogs food. (The loose dog owners loved it!)
