Great stay! When our truck broke down and had to be towed, we were allowed a bit after checkout time when our truck was returned. Staff was friendly, bathroom and showers clean and safe.

Cabin was clean, loved the big site. Mattresses. are uncomfortable. Really wish KOAs included a mini fridge and microwave.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We will take your recommendation under advisement. Thank you.

Great staff . Clean facility. Everything worked well. The site I was on needs some more gravel on and around it. Couldn’t walk by trailer without getting in mud and pad was rutted. All in all great place. Thanks.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you we have our staff working on adding more gravel and leveling out the site.

Rating would have been higher, except for all the flies. I know there is not much you can do about them. Although I did see the fly trap bags, so I know you are doing your best. The rest of the campground was wonderful.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thanks for the feedback, and noticing we are doing our best to keep ahead of the flies!

Pool was too crowded, but weather very hot. The man who led us to our site was very nice. Nice trees for RV.

The pool struggles, but we all love her!

Loved the pod for two... perfect for me and my spouse. I wish more KOAs had these.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thanks for sharing your love for the pod, the perfect spot for a sweet couple!

We stayed two night. 1st night in site 98 and moved to site 28 the second night for full hookup. The campground was pretty good. I wouldn’t give it a 5 star but the staff was nice and helpful when we locked the keys in the truck. The sites were decent size but not huge. Didn’t use the facilities at all so can’t comment on that. We would stay again. Beautiful area by the white river!

There was a problem with our reservation and we ended up in a much shorter regular site instead of the long premium patio site, but the Manager was determined to make it right. She figured out a way to put us in a nice end site closer to the road. This made our 12 nights at this campground much more enjoyable. Thank you Jane! We appreciate you!

The campground was nice and very close to the National Park. It has everything that you need and it is a great campground if you have kids as there is a lot to do.

We are pleased to hear your experience with us was positive.

This is a nice clean family oriented campground. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The campground was clean and quiet. Since is is located in a remote area here was no noise from road traffic. Because it is remote one should bring all the stuff you need including food or expect to travel 45 minutes or more for supplies.

Thank you for your visit to our "oasis" in the Badlands.

We were only there a couple of nights, but everyone was very friendly and helpful. The campground was nice and clean, our site was a great size and had some shade, and the availability of breakfast on site was a nice bonus.

Nice campground, love the oasis of trees. Site was not as long as we would have liked, but we chose to stay in that site under the trees. Staff is super, great dog park, breakfast and dinner on site.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. The trees are a blessing!

Convenient location to the Badlands. Easy to get in and out of the campground. Our site was near the dump station/propane/dumpsters and minimal shade. There was a fly population that snuck inside and stayed in the camper for the remainder of our trip. Overall, nice employees and a flat campsite, but the pool was small and warm (106 degree day). One night stay for us.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for sharing your review with us. 106 is hot and hard to keep a pool cool.

Great stop just outside the Badlands Park. We stayed 2 nights. Nice deep pool provided relief from the heat. Clean bathrooms and showers. Cable TV was nice as well. Store was well stocked. Very polite Staff. Lots of flies and cicadas when we visited do to a wetter than average season. Would definitely return.

Thank you for the sharing your experience with our campground. Safe travels and happy returns!

It was only 2 nights, but the hosts were very accomodating. We would stay there again.

We had a good stay, until we were asking for a possibility to stay 2 hours longer than 11. Someone at the desk told us very unfriendly, that eleven is eleven and that we not even can park by the entrance. Never happened to us at any other campground ( not KOA). So no i dont think we will choose KOA again.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

I am sorry for this experience; we have counseled our guest services staff.

We are trying out best to get ahead of the flies, it is a battle.

Very nice and clean...no water pressure at all.in one of the showers. Only there one night, but enjoyed our stay.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We have made a note to check the water pressure in each of the bath houses.

Beautiful well maintained campground with nice spacing between sites. Friendly staff. Great location to see Badlands and lives the shade trees!

We had a lovely stay except for the fact that the firewood we purchased at the store was not split fully and extremely green. Getting a fire started was almost impossible.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We have made note and spoken with our firewood provider.

Great campground, clean bathrooms & showers and the staff is amazing. Only reason they didn’t get 5 starts as it’s almost double the price of most other campgrounds.

The park itself is nice, the staff is very friendly and the grounds and facilities are well cared for. The bugs, especially the biting flies made it impossible to enjoy any outside activities. Would not recommend visiting in July. They did fog the park the morning we were leaving, but it did not help at all as far as the flies were concerned. All in our party of 4 trailers were miserable.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are sorry your experience was not as enjoyable as you had hoped.
Jul 29, 2023
Staff and park are nice but the flies and mosquitoes as well as the heat kept us from hanging out with friends outside. Probably won’t return here.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are sorry your camping in the Badlands was not as you expected.
Jul 29, 2023
Very friendly, helpful staff. Thank you for spraying for those pesky flies! Offering breakfast and dinner on site is a great idea. The pool was such a relief from the heat. Our hikes were fun-proximity to the park was just right. You all thought of everything!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for the positive review. We will share with our staff.

Well maintained place. The only minus- only two showers for the camping ground. A lot of biting flies.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are sorry you only found the two showers. There are a total of 14 throughout the campground.

I had an awesome stay at the Badlands/White River KOA. The facilities were super clean, the staff were all friendly, the option to buy breakfast and dinner was an added bonus, and it’s located in the heart of the Badlands. I’ll for sure be coming back—thanks for a great stay! I could not have had a better stay!

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Awesome, so happy you enjoyed your time in the Badlands!
Jul 28, 2023
The entire staff was helpful and kind, the KOA was clean and easy to navigate, they had a variety of activities for kids, and it was incredibly easy to hop over to the Badlands NP.

We enjoyed our time and the location was great BUT 1-Extremely LOUD charter bus load of high schoolers who kept us up all night with their yelling and cursing well past 10pm. I called the after hours number to have it addressed but no one answered the number the 2 times I called. -Odor of rotting fish that was coming from the tree at our site -FLIES Never dealt with so many my whole life

I was greeted warmly when I checked in and guided to my site, which I appreciate that most KOAs do. The campground is well laid out. It deserves more than a Journey designation within the KOA rankings, as it as nice as many Holidays I have stayed at. Great camp store too. The only negative was the proximity to I-90.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

We are a Holiday campground, which is why we are 15 miles from I-90.
Jul 27, 2023
Not super friendly staff. Need to control the flies.

CAMPGROUND RESPONSE / COMMENTS:

Thank you for bringing the issue to our attention.

There were many bugs. I’m sure no fault of the campground. Great location! Stayed only one night.

I absolutely loved this nice little park. We didn't use the amenities because we came to visit the Badlands. We spent several days sightseeing the park and it was very much worth the time and money to stay here. Everyone we met was super friendly and welcoming! Grant it, I'm writing this review a year later, but it's still fresh in my memory! Thank you for such a wonderful site and a great vacation spot!

Wow! We arrived late and so happy to find a beautiful site. Very clean, quiet campground. Highly recommend if visiting the Badlands area. We spent 3 days and it was a great experience. Highly recommend the breakfast pancakes!
