Stokes-Thomas Lake Campground

We were searching for a place to land for the night and after a couple of failed attempts at other places, decided to come here. Sites (many with lake views) are spacious and very reasonably priced ($22 for electric/water and$30 for full hookup). Mid-week was very quiet and peaceful; I imagine that a weekend, especially in the summer might be a different experience. The bathroom was very clean. Didn’t use the shower but were warned by the host that the hot/cold faucets were backward. Awesome sunsets! A nearby veterans memorial is very touching. The only complaint was no recycling bins.

Awesome sunsets; nice campground

Located on Lake Kampeska near Watertown off I-29 in eastern SD.  We stayed on site 1 which is a long pull thru with a distant view of the sizeable lake.  There are about 70 non-reservable sites all with W/E (50A), a couple of playgrounds, one dumpstation, a boat launch and an impressive Veterans Memorial.  The roads are paved while the sites are dirt/gravel.

A few large trash bins spread throughout the cg with bins for drink cans for Disabled American Veterans.
