Campground Reviews

Jun 12, 2025
Beautiful campground with mature trees and nice space between sites. But barking dogs left in pen near us, owners away. We contacted mgt, they seemed to get in touch with the dog owners because by day 2 and 3 of our visit, much improved. We appreciate the attention to that matter. Dog rules say adult must be present and disruptive dogs not tolerated so glad it was finally enforced.

Dog park is dirty!!!! On June 10 around 5:00 I ask if any bottled water, camp guy ( with cowboy hat white beard) said no water so I turned around to leave , the gal who was hanging on him said “ welcome” very snobby!!! I ask if she was being insulting, she said YES!!! Purple hair, many piercings, she needed 2 more one one each side of her lip with a lock!!! Was not impressed with the woke att

Ma’am you were extremely rude to our front desk staff when you were informed that we were out of stock of bottled water. Another guest did not appreciate your rudeness and called you out for it. We also do not appreciate your attack on this guest’s physical appearance.

Loved the staff but this is the 1st KOA we stayed at that has no tv reception, video's to loan out or rent. On a rainy day can make it very boring.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for staying with us. We are literally in the middle of nowhere and there is not a TV station for miles. WE do offer Wi-Fi for people to stream. We have found over the years that most of our guests are out exploring even on rainy days and the demand and availability for DVDs is limit

Badlands KOA is one of the nicest KOAs we’ve stayed at! The camp is kept up very well - gravel roads in great shape, campsite pads are kept very level (staff routinely raked the gravel), and bathrooms have been updated, have great hot water and are kept clean. Everyone on staff are great too.

Very Nice campground. Great location for exploring the badlands. The deluxe cabin was perfect for our family, highly recommend. The included bed linens sealed the deal. A+

Unfortunately, our next door neighbor began making noises (hammer drill to retract stabilizers, loud outdoor conversations, etc.) way too early for our liking. Suggest the “quiet time” be extended to at least 8:00 am

Sorry to hear your morning was disturbed too early. We appreciate your reservation.

Great location about 6 miles from the Badlands visitor center. Internet was not bad when we stayed there which helped with very little cell service.

I found personally that I prefer staying in more remote spots. This was more for kids and families. Very friendly and helpful people.

Good spot,quiet, good walking, variety of ways to stay. Well laid out, good camp store, very nice crew. Just one suggestion....new shower heads and thicker shower curtains.

Thor was so friendly, the food was amazing, if you stay you have to try the bison burger and you're so close to badlands its worth it for sure! 10/10

Isn't the buffalo burger great! Thank you for your stay. We hope to see you again soon.

Staff was wonderful but campground is very run down. Kids activities was the worst! One of the women’s bathrooms out of order had to walk to far end.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are sorry to hear you didn't enjoy your .One of our 4 women's rooms was closed for 24 hours due to an unforeseen problem. We do try and provide many free activities such as the pedal cars, playground and mini golf. We are sorry it did not meet with your satidfaction.

Location good for visiting the Badlands but seriously needs TLC. The value was not there, and the resort fee was insult to injury for everything in disrepair, putt-putt a joke etc. We did pay extra for a patio site, which we prefer, but didn't have gas grill as advertised. The pavers were also inundated with ant mounds that were overwhelming the area. Will not return and soured on KOA brand.

We are sorry to hear you didn’t enjoy your stay. We wish you would have brought it up to us during your 4 night stay so we could have addressed your concerns while you were here.

Super nice and unique property with good amounts of shade at the tent sites. Although our site was pretty small and uneven. Only other complaint is the lack of bathrooms for the tent side of the camp. Two shower/bathroom combo stalls is not enough especially when people are showering and others just need to use the bathroom

Nice long pull through spot. Utilities worked great. Close location to badlands national park. Customer oriented employees and manager fixed a mix up with our reserved campsite with grace to our total satisfaction. Highly recommend staying here. Lots of sites in the shade which is hard to come by in this area!

You should not sell your deluxe cabin as sleeping 6 people. We had 5 adults and only 2 were wanting to share a bed . We had one person that had to sleep on the floor! There was no sofa no tv and we were tripping over each other! This cabin only holds 6 people if some are young children!

We are sorry to hear you were unsatisfied with your accommodations. We strive to accurately describe the bed setup in the cabin description.

The grandkids loved the pedal vehicles, playground & gem mine. I loved the peace & quiet away from the hustle & bustle of modern life.

I LOVE the people, they are friendly outgoing and have a GREAT "on-site" restaurant. My husband is a burger enthusiast, so when he says, he's impressed with their menu, they MUST be doing something right. Another plus....right inside the Badlands, so a short drive to the park!!

From the moment you arrive after a very long and exciting day in the Badlands, you are met with friendly staff. They go above and beyond to make your stay enjoyable. It’s a quiet place. Pack food with you or eat at the food shack at the KOA because there is nothing in driving distance.

It was quick but enjoyed our timing staying in Yurt 1. Very comfortable. Had to wait quite a few times for restroom but otherwise all was great.

We stayed in a yurt. I think during our visit ( may '25) the yurts were pretty new. The beds were comfortable. Linens were supplied. We had brought our own though. Even with the heater, it was chilly at night. During the day we just opened the top and the windows for comfort. There could be more storage for clothing or bags. The bathrooms were filthy the entire stay. That was the biggest issue.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for staying with us. The yurt style that you stayed in just opened this season. We are sorry to hear you found the bathrooms dirty. We pride ourselves in their appearance.
Jun 01, 2025
We LOVED everything about this campground except that the bathrooms back by the tent area were not clean at all. We were there for 3 days, 2 nights and they were not cleaned once. The floors were muddy, the garbage was always full, and the sinks were full of hair. Everything else was spot on. The pool, the mini golf, and especially the kind people who worked there!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are sorry that the bathrooms in that area were nor attended to. We strive to always have clean facilities and it would appear we fell short of that during your visit.

Very nice, clean tiny cabin with everything we needed for the night. Bed was hard and uncomfortable to sleep on. Would be fine if I had a mattress pad.

Great camping and access to the white river. The river had white sand bars along the campground during our visit.

We rented a basic camping cabin for 2 nights. Only issue the mattresses on the beds could be a bit thicker, otherwise the campfire ring and porch swing were great, water tap right by our cabin. Store had nice selection. Wings were very good and kids liked the Hunt Bros pizza.
