Guests enjoy excellent stargazing opportunities and convenient access to trails and facilities. However, some reviews mention outdated showers and occasional cleanliness issues in the bathrooms, as well as a lack of shade and privacy between sites. Overall, visitors appreciate the campground's charm and its proximity to the park's attractions.

While the campground is very well situated and the bathrooms were clean and it was nice to have shower options, it would also have been nice to know that sites 14 and 16 go underwater and are the last to drain in a rainstorm (which are common). If you are booking and tent camping, I’d suggest trying to avoid those two spots or be 100% sure to set up on the highest ground (which we also mean to do always but sometimes need a reminder, especially without tent pads).
It would be helpful if hints like this were relayed by the campsite host, but as that was definitely not our experience, we wanted to share that here for future campers!

A beautiful location with stunning views. We didn't use the bath or shower, so no comment on that, but the roadside site was equipped with an electrical hookup and the site was paved, level, and sufficiently long for our 25 foot motorhome and tow car with room to spare. The water fillup and dump station are just a short distance away and easy to access, although there are a number of depressions in the road, so going slowly is advised. The sites are along both sides of the one way loop with shelters and picnic tables on the non-road side, so it you want your passenger side to open to the shelter, be sure to book a site on the outer side of the loop.

Very nice little campground with a great view. Although there's almost no trees to provide shade, there are nice covers over the picnic table that provided some shade. Bathrooms had running water and were somewhat clean. It can get very windy, so make sure you're prepared for that!

Great location within Badlands National Park. Most sites are bump ins and the pads are not very big. It worked for our 22ft RV.
