Campground Reviews

Jun 14, 2021
Super disappointed that the pool was closed and we weren't notified of this prior to arriving. The pool was a huge determining factor of our selection of this location. The air conditioning in the cabin couldn't keep up with the heat and we were miserable all night long. To ask guests to keep the temp at 78 degrees is unrealistic. Also, the bunk area was especially hot with no air flow.

The location is in a valley, right on the White River, so Wi-Fi and phone service were a bit sketchy. We enjoyed walking the dog across the street and had spectacular views of the Badlands. The pool was out of service, but we had shade trees all around. There is a cook shack onsite, along with a nice selection of supplies in the store, so we really didn’t want for anything.

Had an awesome stay. Campground is quiet and very clean. Staff was very friendly. Will be staying there again next time I'm in the area.

Very conveniently located, great bathrooms, fun activities. A little buggier than expected for the Badlands, but it is by the White River.

Easy access from Badlands Park. Nice sites with easy hook-up. Cook Shack is a nice addition - pancakes were great.

Very nice location, nice spots, the only part need improvements is the showers (very dirty)

This was our first KOA experience and I was impressed with the facility and professional process.

We rented a TeePee for our stay in the badlands. The Teepee itself was very nice and comfortable. One of the main reasons we chose this campground, was for the pool. Unfortunately the pool was closed during our stay, so no way to cool down from the hot weather. Very disappointed that we were not notified of the pool closure prior to our arrival.

The owner and staff are extremely kind and friendly. We stayed in a Deluxe tent site and loved having a sink and electricity and a more private area for our tent stay. The store had everything we needed as well. Recommended to our friends!

We loved every part of this campground. Bathrooms were always clean as was the campground as a whole. Absolutely loved the dog park! Will definitely stay here again.

Lovely stop. Shade was a welcome site! So we’re the morning pancakes. We wouldn’t change a thing.

Wow! A super KOA! Clean, lots of amenities! Best dog park ever! Wanted to stay an extra night but they were full, even waited a little later to see if there were any cancellations. Next time I’ll know to book more days.

So great. Our first time at any KOA. Everyone working there is super helpful and friendly. Beautiful location. We'll be back!

pool was broken but we had to pay full price for an amenity we were really looking forward to using and it was VERY hot during our stay

Everything they advertise is accurate- Nice sites, nice amenities, perfect location. Wish we had stayed longer and will stay here again!

Enjoyed our stay- good beds clean bathrooms. We’ve stayed many times- we were disappointed to see that the campground grounds weren’t kept as nice as usual- and the cabins could use some sprucing up as well. We’ve stayed in 100’s of KOAS- this one is in a good quiet location- just needs a bit of sprucing up compared to most others we have stayed in- over grown walks into cabins etc. we’

Great campground, the location is great. But the staff is rude. Other than that we had a great stay.

We loved the site, but wish we had known the pool was oi ut of order before we arrived. The staff was very kind and helpful and we appreciated the cleanliness of the facilities.

Awesome...clean and quiet �

This is a very well organized and clean campground with LOTS to do. Unfortunately, it is HUGE and just not our scene with people all over the place and rv’s cheek by jowl. If you’re into that scene, this place is fantastic and great for kids…..just not for us.

Wonderful time, loved our cabin

We stayed 4 nights and we’re very comfortable here. Everyone was very nice and helpful

Stayed 3 nights in a travel trailer great park . Clean and shaded spots easy in and out close to badlands
Jun 11, 2021
Surprised by the quality of the food at the on-site food shack. Was good since there are no other places nearby. Very close to Badlands national park.

Beautiful scenery, friendly staff, clean facilities. Disappointed that pool was out of service and we weren’t notified. Website should have been updated at least. Cut our site seeing short so kids could swim, only to find out they couldn’t. Would have appreciated the communication

The husband loved the cabin bed and mattress. I thought it was stiff. The facilities were clean. The people were friendly and helpful.

Pool was broken which was a bummer and the sewer smell was soooo bad that we couldn't even leave our van windows open. Luckily our air conditioning was working so we could leave that on all night. Nice eating area and the free pancakes were a nice touch!

It was extremely hot, but weather can’t be controlled. Overall I liked the stay because I love the Badlands. The only thing is I wish there had been a functional pool.

Clean, accommodating, and friendly

Once again I have to say this about a KOA, that the pool and miniature golf were in poor condition. In fact, the pool was out of commission. Items in the store were way overpriced considering that there is no grocery anywhere close by. Cafe food was good but expensive as well.

Everything was great except staff speeding over the 10 mph. After ~100 campsites in 2 years we have observed that when staff doesn’t observe speed, then campers don’t. Thanks for an otherwise great visit! Perfect location to visit the Badlands!

Friendly staff, site had ample room for our big rig, was escorted to site. Was disappointed the pool was closed for repairs.

Easy access to the badlands. Clean and kept up, not a ton of amenities but good options for food.

Overall It’s run like a tight ship. Clean, safe and family “friendly”. More hooks on the shower door please. 1 for towel and clothes is not enough. The putt putt golf course is literally in ruin. Lastly, there is this overall sense that we were being babysat. It was just a feeling but we always felt like if we took one misstep there was definitely someone there to correct us. I

Great location to stay for the night. The best dog park I've ever seen at a campground and it included a doggy wash station. The downside was that the pool wasn't in service. It was 99 degrees. Price gouging customer selling a case of water for $17 is unacceptable. No excuse.

Great place to stay near the badlands! Lots of amenities and everyone was friendly! You won't regret staying here!

Nicely wooded, staff was friendly, washers and dryers worked well, quiet. Read about this location in a top 10 listicle, and would definitely recommend. Stayed here 4 nights with a travel trailer.

Rating: 4/5 from a KOA Holiday perspective Overall: We stayed 1 night in September 2021 with a 37ft Class A with a tow vehicle. Nice KOA Holiday with many options for RV and camping sites and lots of shade (vs. the Cedar Pass Badlands campground). Overpriced for a 1-night stop for which Cedar Pass may be a better choice, but a great option if you plan to spend multiple nights and enjoy the amenities. Campsite/Campground: The campground was very spacious and overall easy to maneuver. We had some confusion on the way out due to some one-way signs, but cleared driving the wrong way in a one-way with staff and made it out ok :) . Great shade in many sites, especially Jackalope Lane, Prairie Dog Trail, turkey run, Coyote Path, and Hoot Owl Drive. We had site 143 which was a patio site with LOTS of space between sites. Great site if you plan to spend a few days or week, but over priced for a quick stayover as we didn't have time to enjoy the space. Hookups: We had 50A and full hookup site with patio that included a table, chairs and propane grill. Furniture was brand new and in great condition. Hookups were a challenge – they were very far from the rig and we needed to be creative to get the sewer lines connected (see picture). Glad we had extensions! Amenities: The site looked to have great amenities. The breakfast was held in a brand-new pole barn and overall things were well kept, we just didn't have time to enjoy them with a 1-night stay. Service/Staff: Staff was good at check-in. Other: We have stayed at both the KOA and Cedar Pass campground. Cedar Pass has its challenges (from flooding to windstorms). If you are looking to stay between the two, we would suggest that if you have a soft-sided camping unit (tent or pop-up) then the KOA is the best choice to avoid flooding or wind issues. The KOA is also the best place if you are spending more than one night, as it has amenities vs. Cedar Pass which has none other than showers/restrooms. If you have a hard-sided camper and are doing a 1-night stay, Cedar Pass may be a better option with better views.
