We've stayed here every summer for the last 3-4 years when visiting family. In all past years, we've had a great experience. This year was not a good experience. Unfriendly staff, especially the lady at check-in, who is also mentioned in other reviews. Then, the park police drive around on their golf carts looking for people violating the rules. The rules by the way, are not enforced equally.

Aside from few trees and tight spaces, the pool, hot tub, laundry & bath facilities are top notch! They have community activities and very clean facilities.

I enjoyed the grassy tent site I was assigned! The bathrooms were unlocked. The staff were very helpful, but not nosy, the pool and hot tub were clean and perfect for my needs/wants. Despite the heavy construction work going on - I still enjoyed myself! My only negative: shower curtains were very narrow, so water did did splash outside the shower, but somehow it still worked!

I enjoyed my stay at Badlands KOA (tent site). Plenty of shade to set up my tent, it was nice. Clean property. My only criticism is that the pool was filthy (truly). Please clean it, put some bleach ... with that I would have rated it to 5.

Wonderful campground, amazing staff very helpful. Need to have rules and ENFORCE on the barking dogs! Owners stand/sit and just watch them bark! Understand I had a dog while traveling. She did not bark only to warn/protect me. We have saved and traveled a long way for a vacation, not to hear untrained dogs bark while we walk the campground, or be parked by a camper that allow their dogs bark!

One man that rode around on the golf cart that works there grey hair tied back mid length and had a bear with glasses and wore his KOA shirt was not trained on how to have manners and talked to guest. The ladies in office were very friendly and the young adults who maintained the shower area were always smiling. But that man was horrible yelling at us on arrival and departure days. LET HIM GO!

Probably would not recommend to my friends. We were there about 20 min prior to check in and the desk clerk would not let us check in or for that matter stay on the property until 1:00. Don’t have much patience for nazi regimes anymore. Try you best to please your customer and work with them rather than just dictate rules to them…

Nice place. Little dusty due to construction. Will be a better campground when construction is complete.

Koa was nice. Only issue we had was the small amount of overflow parking was clear across the campground so it was very inconvenient. Site was in the small side but we still fit we

Site was level but blacktop. Sites very too close and water, sewer and electric were at the back and made the patio of no use. Laundry was nice, but pricey.

Was good, easy to find after the first day.

Nice well kept campground. When the new store opens it will be even nicer with the exception of the check-in lane being even steeper

Nice experience and it was easy late checkins. Instructions and directions to the site was clear.

The campsite was beautiful, level and a great patio. It was only an overnight stay while passing through, we found the staff not very welcoming and rude. We tried small talk at registration, to no avail. The night before we received an email that stated “do not check in before 1:00pm. You will not be accommodated”. Of course, later we received the “we look forward to your visit..”

Awesome place to stay. The old man that cuts the lawn needs to be a little nicer

Stayed 2 nights. Friendly staff helped us with veterinary recommendations as we were traveling with our dog.

The outside staff were okay, but not the friendliest. The office staff were very friendly.

Nice facility, even with construction of a new office. My only complaint is the upon arriving we were given a map to our campsite and told someone would be there to guide us. Since he wasn't there and I've been pulling a trailer for 22 years I figured I was fine heading to my spot. Well it wasn't fine with him when he arrived finally and he was very angry and wanted to argue. I de-escalated

Beautiful campground! One of the nicest places I've stayed so far.

The bathrooms were outstanding. The pool was great. I know land is at a premium out west, but the campsites are postage-stamp size. We could reach out of our tent and touch two other tents.

Wonderful KOA staff was very helpful and our campsite was amazing very clean and well kept campground would stay again with out a doubt we all fell in love with this KOA it will be hard for another to compare to this one for sure

We only stayed one night traveling to Mount Rushmore, Yellowstone and Grand Tetons but the kids (teenagers) wished we were staying longer! We stayed in a camping cabin and was just what we needed-somewhere to sleep! We were three families traveling together and check in was easy and smooth and employees at registration were nice!

All was very nice. Only a suggestion. Consider the possibility of providing towels, bedding, including sheets, pillow and cases and blanket. A small rental charge would be welcomed.

Nice place to stay. We stayed in this same KOA 5 years ago as well. Nice knowledgeable and friendly. Great location for seeing sites around the area. Would definitely recommend!

Always excellent!

The women’s bathroom while clean smelled like a sewer. Needs more ventilation in toilet and shower areas.

Great Campground. Friendly staff and a great pool!

Blackhills is a misnomer, giving you the impression that you are in and amongst them when they can only be seen from a distance. Not the friendliest welcome I have ever received at a KOA Ground. The place is new with gleaming bathrooms and shower units. Store is stocked but has few frozen goods for cooing.

OMG...this place is a palace. Brand new restrooms and showers and a wonderful view of the mountains in the morning. There are plenty of grocery stores near by and the campground was silent after 8pm. These types of KOAs make exploring America great again

Just built a new Store & Office with shower/bath both upstairs & down that are like a mini spa! Staff at the campground are very helpful. From 7-10am they did a breakfast downstairs that hit the spot.
