I enjoyed Nebraska Tailwater. I have been there earlier this year, and it was just as nice as it was the time I went there September as it was in June. I would have liked to stay longer, but other people like to just take in the weekend only, when I wanted to stay the maximum stay of two weeks. There wasn’t any room for me at that time. In the future, I will come back and hopefully have the space for me to stay the two weeks next time.
NE Tailwaters is a hidden gem away from the hustle and bustle of most other local campgrounds. Not to mention a $10 daily savings as compared to SD campgrounds. The only setback is no full hookups. The dump station is nearby although. Bathhouses are extremely well taken care of and serviced daily. We would certainly return for camping at this location. Thanks to staff taking care of business in the Tailwaters campground!
Nestled between a highway and a raging river, one might be worried about noise. It was a very quiet and relaxing week and we look forward to returning.
We stayed mid-Septemper. One day hot and humid, then strong storms, then cool and beautiful weather. Sites looking over the Missouri river. Lots of recreation activities nearby. Sites were deep and clean. Bathrooms were immaculate. Staff was friendly and helpful. Rates were low.
This is a riverside site very popular with fishermen. The dam is in plain view and we got some very pretty pictures in the sunset and sunrise. The host was nice and helpful. There’s only one or 2 water taps down at the campground. There’s a good dump site on the way in.
We love Army Corps campgrounds and this one did not disappoint. What made it above and beyond were the camp hosts Brian and Terry. They were so personable and friendly. Don’t lose them!! The restrooms were super clean and nice. Being right on the Missouri is very nice and Yankton is very convenient for food and shopping.
We had a beautiful campsite near the restroom. The area was beautiful. We especially enjoyed the nighttime view of a full moon over the river. The campground hosts Brian and Terry were amazing. They were so attentive and friendly to everyone. They went above and beyond in making everyone feel special. If I could nominate them for an award, I would; as they were probably the best campground hosts we’ve ever had. The contractors resided next to our campsite. They were both great; very friendly and professional. And of course Yankton is always fun to visit
We were paddle fishing on the Missouri River at Lewis & Clark Recreation area. Had a blast. All the campground facilities were very clean and well maintained. We we’re very pleased. We will most definitely be back again
