Campground Reviews

Sep 03, 2023
Friendly staff, the food chef at the kamp kitchen was excellent! Pancakes, bacon, Buffalo burgers deserve 5 star rating. The pool depth markings need immediate repair, we thought the depth was 4 ft, turns out it was 7 ft, the label was missing. Our site was nice, but no fire ring, bit of a disappointment. Would definitely stay again!

Thank for the review! The tall black feature on the patio, is the fire pit, just not a ring on the ground. We have addressed the depth markers on the pool.

We had a wonderful stay! The staff were super friendly and helpful, our site was quiet and clean. The pool was well kept and the bathrooms/laundry room were tidy. We would most definitely stay again if we are out this way again!

Loved it! Close to the national park, great sites with shade or sun....you choose. The staff as terrific and the stay perfect. I even ate the Sunday AM pancakes from the grill. I hope I get the chance to be here again.

Very convenient location to camp by Badlands NP. Friendly staff. The camper adjacent to our spot had an issue with his RV slide out and the KOA staff maintenance fixed it so he could continue his travels.

Kid friendly but buggy. The mosquito fogger helped for one day. The last night we had small little bugs (not ants)crawl into our tent, small enough to crawl in between the seams. Our 20amp electric site kept tripping when we tried to charge our electric car.

One of our favorite KOA campgrounds.

Reasonable stay. Great location for the Badlands NP and also to get to Rushmore. Set up was ok, site was dirt and grass with a bit of gravel. Space between was not too close. Someone had a bug zapper nearby which was helpful.

too much mosquito in my Campsite, I can not go outside, too much. the washroom is clean. But they did not clean the campsite, that is why too much mosquito.

Clean bathrooms, fun activities, good breakfast, large fenced dog run (good to the ground fence), nice-cold swimming pool, lots of space for all campers, ez access to the Badlands, 2023 lots of mosquitoes (but the moisture helps everyone-and they sprayed, so bring bug spray and be happy it’s not bone dry.). Most importantly the staff were excellent, friendly, fun, and happy!!!

We loved the campground. It was in a quiet, peaceful, and beautiful area off the beaten path. The flies and mosquitoes are really bad, so bring the citronella and bug spray.

Flat, pull thru lots with full hookups. Would stay there again. The little restaurant was a welcome perk after traveling all day. Buffalo burgers were delicious! Clean shower houses.

It was very HOT (102) and lots of Flys and mosquitoes so it was difficult to sit or walk around the campground. Had to use bottle water to drink as the tap water tastes bad. Staff was excellent and the site was very nice.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thanks for the review. We have very hard water in this area of South Dakota, so it does taste a bit different.

We stayed four nights. The location is great for visiting the Badlands. We liked the trees for shade, large off-leash pet area, and the KooKhouse and Pavillion. The staff was super nice, and the park was very clean. The biggest issue was the mosquitoes and biting flies. The staff did "fog" for bugs the morning we left which really worked. To a lesser degree, the water had an unpleasant taste.

Great location and lots of things to do. Super clean bathrooms. However the pool was super dirty, lots of hair and bandaids. Also the mosquitos and flies will get you and they will be ruthless. No amount of spray or citronella will be able to stop them.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We apologize that you encountered an untidy pool area, we have addressed the issue. The mosquitoes are more difficult to control, however we do fog and spray on a daily basis.

Very nice campground with clean facilities. The on-site “cook shack” provided tasty and convenient meals when we did not want to cook. Best of all were the staff. They were extremely friendly and helpful, even tried to figure out a solution for an issue with my van’s electrical connection. And they let us switch campsites to a shady site. Wonderful hosts!

Great location and staff, the only downsides were the excessive heat and mosquitoes but hey it’s August. The fellow who guided us to our site was great. He came back much later in the day to warn us of potential bad weather. He was very thoughtful and i have to give him top marks for thoughtfulness and great customer service.
