Within Union Grove State Park, this small state park campground sits on a hill just off Interstate 29, providing convenient highway access with some accompanying road noise. The facility manages a compact collection of sites spread across treed terrain, offering both back-in and pull-through options for RVs up to 40 feet, plus tent camping areas.
Campers consistently highlight the facility's maintenance standards. Austin and Natasha S. notes it's "definitely one of the cleanest most well kept campgrounds I've seen in a while," with shower rooms and bathrooms that "are immaculate, and smell so nice." The campground features both 30 and 50 amp electrical service, along with a dump station and playground equipment for families.
Sites vary considerably in privacy and spacing. Corner spots like sites 4 and 5 provide more separation and tree cover, while other areas place campers close together. Some tent sites require parking on the road due to limited pull-off space. The campground includes hiking trails that wind through the surrounding parkland, giving visitors opportunities to explore the wooded terrain beyond the camping area.
On-site hosts assist with check-ins and general information. Reservations can be made online in advance, though day passes require cash payment on arrival. The facility operates year-round, though late fall and early spring see fewer visitors. Riding with S. appreciated the setup enough to extend a planned two-night stay to five nights, citing the "small, cozy, shady campground" and "awesome camp hosts."
For additional options in the region, campers can explore camping spots outside Beresford. This works well for travelers seeking a clean, accessible overnight stop with full hookups and maintained facilities.
