Overnight Stop

It is essentially a gravel parking spot with a boat ramp and pit toilet. Nothing special, we stopped for an overnight on our way to Utah and it worked for us.

Great spot. Cheap, not free.

Looking up free spots for the evening. Came across this gem. A few miles of dirt road off the interstate and several spots next to a boat ramp. Was $11.67 to stay here. I'd stay again.

Absolutely beautiful weather! If you like to fish, this is the spot. There’s a boat ramp as well. There’s no water or electricity so make sure to bring plenty of water with you. Lots of beautiful little birds to watch. The sun sets under the hills and rises over the river. Made some friends here too! There’s a toilet but I didn’t use it 😬

Only downside is that it’s no longer free. The fee when I went was $11.87.

If I’m ever in South Dakota again I would definitely stay here!
