West Pollock Recreation Area, managed by SD State Parks and Recreation, sits along Lake Oahe in north-central South Dakota and gives campers a choice between open, sun-exposed sites and tree-shaded spots. About half the sites are well-spaced. The lake draws anglers and paddlers, and Lake Pocasse sits roughly 2.7 miles northeast for those wanting another water-access option nearby. Electric hookups accommodate RVs up to 45 feet, and a dump station is available, though potable water is not piped to individual sites. Non-residents should budget slightly above the listed rate, as an additional fee applies. Reservations are available, so booking ahead is worth considering during warmer months.
